  1. PROPAGANDA Is it what you think?

  2. All propaganda must be popular and its intellectual level must be adjusted to the most limited intelligence among those it is addressed to. Consequently, the greater the mass it is intended to reach, the lower its...intellectual level will have to be. It is a mistake to make propaganda many-sided...[the great masses’] intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous.

  3. ...all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan. As soon as you sacrifice this slogan and try to be many-sided, the effect will piddle away, for the crowd can neither digest nor retain the material offered. In this way the result is weakened and in the end entirely cancelled out. from Mein Kampf (My Struggle) written in 1923 by Adolf Hitler

  4. The Seven Commandments… • Whatever goes upon two legs is an enemy. • Whatever goes upon four legs, or has wings, is a friend. • No animal shall wear clothes. • No animal shall sleep in a bed. • No animal shall drink alcohol • No animal shall kill any other animal. • All animals are equal. • are reduced to… • “Four legs good, two legs bad.”

  5. “People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. • “People's heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.” • -- "Zedd" Wizard's First Rule • by Terry Goodkind
