The lesser evil?

 

I´m old enough to remember when Glenn Beck was a conspiracy theorist only a few notches removed from Alex Jones. However, in 2016 Jones endorsed Donald Trump, while Beck (who was also wooed by the Don) decided to back Ted Cruz instead. At the time, Trump and Cruz were opponents and in general couldn´t stand each other. Beck, who is a Mormon, even claimed that Cruz was "the One, Mighty and Strong" prophesized by Joseph Smith!

In the recent clip above, Beck first denies that the recent Spielberg movie "Disclosure Day" is a government psy-op. Then, he tells us about an even worse conspiracy, which may threaten our very free will, a conspiracy so vast and insidious that you are literally *being monitored by it right now*...

Yes, that would be the Internet, especially the LLM-AI spectrum. But wait a sec...in what sense is the customized brain-washing we´re subject to now different (or worse) than the collective brain-washing that´s been around since the dawn of Homo sapiens? 

I honestly don´t see the difference. Besides, the world is ripping apart as we speak, so it´s almost as if that collective brain-washing thing was the "lesser evil". But then, who knows, maybe that´s Glenn Beck´s real point...

We all need that good ol´ psy-op.
