1 ) "This is the secret of propaganda: Those who are to be persuaded by it should be completely immersed in the ideas of the propaganda, without ever noticing that they are being immersed in it."

2) Not every item of news should be published. Rather must those who control news policies endeavor to make every item of news serve a certain purpose.

3) We shall reach our goal, when we have the power to laugh as we destroy, as we smash, whatever was sacred to us as tradition, as education, and as human affection.

4) The war we are fighting until victory or the bitter end is in its deepest sense a war between Christ and Marx. Christ: the principle of love. Marx: the principle of hate.

5) A media system wants ostensible diversity that conceals an actual uniformity

6) If we have power, we'll never give it up again unless we're carried out of our offices as corpses

7) During a war, news should be given out for instruction rather than information.

8) Crisis is the path to happiness. Decay and disintegration do not spell doom, but ascent and beginning.

9) Revolutions are spiritual acts. They appear first in people, then in politics and the economy. New people form new structures. The transformation we want is first of all spiritual; that will necessarily change the way things are.

10) Arguments must therefore be crude, clear and forcible, and appeal to emotions and instincts, not the intellect. Truth was unimportant and entirely subordinate to tactics and psychology.

Democrats should take note of how well THAT one worked out for Herr Dr. Goebbels and his minions.

5 Cheeky Quotes from Göring:

1) "After the United States gobbled up California and half of Mexico, and we were stripped down to nothing, territorial expansion suddenly becomes a crime. It's been going on for centuries, and it will still go on.“

2) "Hitler decided that. I thought it was stupid because I believed that first we had to defeat England.“

3) "We will go down in history either as the world's greatest statesmen or its worst villains.“

4) "No enemy bomber can reach the Ruhr. If one reaches the Ruhr, my name is not Göring. You may call me Meyer.“

5) "Hitler had the willpower of a demon and he needed it. If he didn't have such a strong willpower he couldn't have achieved anything. Don't forget, if Hitler had not lost the war, if he did not have to fight against the combination of big powers like England, America, and Russia — each one he could have conquered individually — these defendants and these generals would now be saying, 'Heil Hitler,' and would not be so damn critical.“

The worst part is that we have information like this available at our fingertips in an instant, but people on all sides of the political spectrum seem to ignore what’s going on in favor of their own echo chambers. The internet should have created the most intellectually discerning citizenry in history. Instead, it is a marketplace of misinformation which actively discourages and prevents people from questioning “the science” or anything else.

Read "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" by William L. Shirer. The "rise" is shockingly familiar...control of the media, of the schools, corruption of the youth, create division by finding a boogeyman to blame for everything...

The irony of how the left refers to the right as Nazis. If there is one advantage that people like us baws have over the people of Germany in the 1920's and 1930's is that we know they are wrong and that we are on the right side of history.

Perfectly describes the Left.

Not sure how many of those are real. But Most of those ideas come from Edward Bernays.

They want everybody to look different, but say the same thing.

Very smart man in an evil vein. It’s always bold to speak of never giving up until death, until it comes time to die. He tried to run like a coward, in the end.

The evil bastard took his kids with him; his wife was just as nuts as he.

When you read quotes in historical figures own words, you usually see them seeing themselves as the good guy. With this quote it seems that he is saying he is not the good guy. Or is he saying he is on the side of love? Confusing quote.

They are destroying our education system with CRT and marxist teachers unions, erasing and criticizing American traditions as racist/white priveledge, tearing down historical statues, telling us that America was never great.

It's all there for the sheep to see what is happening, but some on left believe our gov't and others cheer on this authoritarian overreach. I'm not really able to wrap my mind around how corrupt and vile our gov't has become, and at what lengths they will go to in order to silence American citizens.

Not surprising.

Bernays is the Godfather of Modern Propaganda.

She seemed nuttier (if that's possible).

In the excellent German flick, Downfall (often used in those "Hitler" satires), Frau Goebbels was especially portrayed as a one of the biggest cult-worshippers of Hitler.(It reminded me of the fervent obsession in which Dems regard their "leaders").

It is confusing. Good question.

As you note, most people regard themselves as the "good" guy.

So was Goebbels so deluded to believe the Nazis actions and goals were "principled" in the context of "Christ"-like? Or is he conceding the context here that the Nazis' philosophy was closer to the principles of Marx (an authoritarian AND anti-Christ / atheist)?

It's getting harder and harder to slip a piece of paper between The Dem Party and actual Nazi Party. They both base their politics/cult on completely destroying the previous (working) system and its reminders (like statues), and starting over (or "Building Back") in the aftermath of the ashes.
