New IPCC Climate Report: Buy Our Snake Oil or the World Gets It
‘..But this is how mass hysteria works – and how it always has worked, as the French author Gustave Le Bon observed in his influential 1895 work The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind.
One of the key methods by which demagogues work their magic and sell their snake oil to the delusional masses is through the medium of repetition, which acts on people’s brains like a virus.
“When an affirmation has been sufficiently repeated and there is unanimity in this repetition…what is called a current of opinion is formed and the powerful mechanism of contagion intervenes. Ideas, sentiments, emotions, and beliefs possess in crowds a contagious power as intense as that of microbes.”

    GLOBAL WARMING IS CLASSIC TOTALITARIAN: THE BIG LIE OF HITLER

    Now doesn’t this sound like Obama?

    The phrase was also used in a report prepared during the war by the United States
    Office of Strategic Services in describing Hitler’s psychological profile

    “His primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it.”
