Here is a transcription of the video referenced in my "clickbait" posting.
https://lexfridman.com/yuval-noah-harari-transcript#chapter7_conspiracy_theories
Careful reading of the article will lead you to discover the sources.
There is a section that is referenced regarding conspiracy theorists.
Lex Fridman (01:45:07) So I have to ask you about an interesting dynamic of stories. You wrote an article two years ago titled, ‘When The World Seems Like One Big Conspiracy: How Understanding The Structure of Global Cabal Theories Can Shed Light On Their Allure And Their Inherent Falsehood.’.
(01:45:25) What are global cabal theories and why do so many people believe them? 37% of Americans, for example.
Yuval Noah Harari (01:45:32) Well, the global cabal theory, it has many variations, but basically there is a small group of people, a small cabal that secretly controls everything that is happening in the world. All the wars, all the revolutions, all the epidemics, everything that is happening is controlled by this very small group of people, who are of course evil and have bad intentions. And this is a very well known story. It’s not new. It’s been there for thousands of years.
(01:46:00) It’s very attractive because, first of all, it’s simple. You don’t need to understand everything that happens in the world, you just need to understand one thing. The war in Ukraine, the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, 5G technology, COVID-19; it’s simple. There is this global cabal. They do all of it. (01:46:21) And also, it enables you to shift all the responsibility to all the bad things that are happening in the world to this small cabal. ” It’s the Jews, it’s the Free Masons. It’s not us.”
(01:46:33) And also, it creates this fantasy, utopian fantasy. “If we only get rid of the small cabal, we’ve solved all the problems of the world. Salvation.” The Israeli/Palestinian conflict, the war in Ukraine, the epidemics, poverty, everything is solved just by knocking out this small cabal.
(01:46:53) So again, it’s simple, it’s attractive, and this is why so many people believe it. Again, it’s not new. Nazism was exactly this. Nazism began as a conspiracy theory. We don’t call Nazism a conspiracy theory because, “Oh, it’s a big thing. It’s an ideology.” But if you look at it, it’s a conspiracy theory. The basic Nazi idea was that Jews control the world. Get rid of the Jews, you’ve solved all the world’s problems.
Thanks for the reply.
I'm not a censor; I'm a member of this community. Don't you think that each of us has a responsibility to vet the information that we communally share? And to point out salient aspects of the information war we are involved in? That's our minimal collective responsibility, imo.
I would like to redirect your attention to my comment. Another read should make it clear that I did NOT refer to your post as "clickbait post" (which would imply that YOU are posting for clickbait reasons). I'm not saying that you are made a clickbait post, or that you intentionally posted clickbait.
I'm pointing out that this article is from a known disinfo, clickbait website operation, which is a fact. I assumed you were not aware of this, which is why I commented.
If you put aside any feeling that your personal dignity or motivation has been impugned upon (it hasn't) and apply a less reactive review, you'll notice this very point:
What you've shared here confirms this point. There's no real dispute that Harari is scum or that he doesn't have certain views re: 'conspiracy theorists', particularly those dealing with the Cabal, BUT the headline "Top WEF Official: ‘Dangerous Conspiracy Theorists Must Be Eliminated’?
I suppose it would be fair to add that the approach also includes taking a body of truth and using that to launch outrageous and sensationalist narratives.
Where does Harari say that CTs must be dragged off, shot in the back of the head, and whacked? (Or dragged to death camps) Which is the direct nuance of the headline. It's doesn't.
And that's the whole point.
TPV is a known disinfo operation. If it required no discernment to cut through their crap, it wouldn't be very effective, would it?
TPV, which changed its name from NewsPunch earlier this year, consistently uses this very tactic. And any real critical research into the organization and what it does reveals exactly what it is.
A serious analysis of their approach, their history and their articles confirms it.
A final comment:
As anons, it doesn't serve our community for us to adopt superficial narratives that stroke our emotional triggers and the triggers of newcomers. We should be aware that we are constantly targeted with all sorts of psyops that would seek to undermine our work and our community. TPV is one of those.
Also, it's important for us to NOT be too self-identified with what we post and how we view things, because when we are, we'll always react as if that being challenged in some way is a personal issue, and a personal matter. (I've certainly been there, done that.)
But it isn't personal. We're here about seeking truth, after all. Right?
