The Freud Dynasty

Uploaded with Comments by mysticdave666

To many in both business and government, the triumph of the self is the ultimate expression of democracy, where power is truly moved into the hands of the people. Certainly the people may feel they are in charge, but are they really? The Century of the Self by Adam Curtis tells the untold and controversial story of the growth of the mass-consumer society. How is the all-consuming self created, by whom, and in whose interest?

The Freud dynasty is at the heart of this compelling social history. Sigmund Freud, founder of psychoanalysis; Edward Bernays, who invented public relations; Anna Freud, Sigmund's devoted daughter; and present-day PR guru and Sigmund's great grandson, Matthew Freud. Sigmund Freud's work into the bubbling and murky world of the subconscious changed the world. By introducing a technique to probe the unconscious mind, Freud provided useful tools for understanding the secret desires of the masses. Unwittingly, his work served as the precursor to a world full of political spin doctors, marketing moguls, and society's belief that the pursuit of satisfaction and happiness is man's ultimate goal.

Part 1-Happiness Machines:
Part one documents the story of the relationship between Sigmund Freud and his American nephew, Edward Bernays who invented 'Public Relations' in the 1920s, being the first person to take Freud's ideas to manipulate the masses. He showed American corporations how they could make people want things they didn't need by systematically linking mass-produced goods to their unconscious desires.

Part 2-The Engineering of Consent:
Part two explores how those in power in post-war America used Freud's ideas about the unconscious mind to try and control the masses. Politicians and planners came to believe Freud's underlying premise that deep within all human beings were dangerous and irrational desires. They were convinced that it was the unleashing of these instincts that had led to the barbarism of Nazi Germany, and in response to this, they set out to find ways to control the masses so as to manage the 'hidden enemy' within the human mind.

Part 3-There is a Policeman Inside All Our Heads, He Must Be Destroyed:
In the 1960s, a radical group of psychotherapists challenged the influence of Freudian ideas, which lead to the creation of a new political movement that sought to create 'new people', free of the psychological conformity that had been implanted in people's minds by business and politics. This episode shows how this idea rapidly developed in America through "self-help movements", into the irresistible rise of the expressive self: the Me Generation.

Part 4-Eight People Sipping Wine in Kettering:
This episode explains how politicians turned to the same techniques used by business in order to read and manipulate the inner desires of the masses. Both New Labor with Tony Blair and the Democrats led by Bill Clinton, used the focus group which had been invented by psychoanalysts in order to regain power. Both set out to mold their policies to manipulate people's innermost desires and feelings, just as capitalism had learned to do with products.

Our Government and Corporations "ROBBED" the mass subconscious almost 100 years ago to make us mind-controlled consumers & soldiers in dirty wars for profits.

This documentary is both fascinating as it is revolting, but one where you will walk away more wise...and 'awake'

It seems that the elitist & governments rationalized their use of propaganda to mold the mass consciousness because of Freud's writings. Freud theorized (around 1900) that hidden deep in a person's subconsciousness is a violent and deviant sexual being, remnants of our animal past. This being, if left to it's own devices, threatened their idea of a civilized society, therefore they fervently believed the masses must be controlled.

When the corporations took notice of how skillfully the government used BULLSHIT to manipulate the public to follow their agendas they saw how they could benefit from employing such techniques.  so right away they set out to use the 'propaganda machine' to transform people from a Needs buyer to a Desire buyer. They knew that if they could tap into a person's desires they would purchase things they didn't need. Once people were hooked, so-to-speak, the corporate owner's fear of overproducing were alleviated while they made a bunch of money.

The motivation to 'control the masses' these three groups possessed  (i.e. elitist, government, corporations) were, of course, greed and power, but in a large way it was also fear.  They truly feared the masses.


Although many of the conclusions one will make after viewing this documentary are obvious to members of this and similar forums... Like the answer to "How did America get in our current mess" ...It is still one worth viewing and sharing as you will hear from the very people involved in this mass mind control admitting how it was done. These types of facts are invaluable to bring to the sleeping masses, as they plant the seeds of truth necessary for them to start unraveling the conspiracy for themselves.

Now we know the "How" perhaps real solutions can be devised and implemented ASAP!  And I hope with more and more people.
