You’re so unique. Your style is all your own. You make your own decisions. That’s because you live in the world that you get to create. The ultimate placation of a human being is the eternal ego massage of the all consuming self. Welcome to your own self made prison Joe Public.

As promised the 2nd in a series of episodes that will shed light on the emergence of the ego based marketing strategies that Edward Bernays (Sigmund Freud’s nephew) brought to the United States for companies to sell you things and ultimately control the masses.

Doesn’t it strike you as odd that we don’t push for a society that creates swarms of scientists dedicated to one job… monitoring and understanding our planet to make sure our species [...]

Are you going to upgrade?

I’ve written about the Homo Technologicus, my name for the next rendition of Homo Sapien. Indeed, this transition has been happening and is going to accelerate in the next few years.
