While coordinating operations against al-Qaeda during the Bush administration, Buck Sexton became obsessed with figuring out how anyone could comply with an evil regime. Now, Manufacturing Delusion is the result of his search for an answer. In it, he finds that the mind-control tactics which compelled religious zealots to murder and suicide have been weaponized by tyrannical leaders throughout history to create compliant citizens. From a nation-wide effort to defund the police to society-wide redefinition of gender, Sexton argues that the American people are on the brink of mass delusion. He equips readers with an understanding of the tactics used to foment mass delusion and hysteria, and shows how the most dangerous governments in history have weaponized them. You'll learn how North Korea creates an isolated state to keep its citizens compliant; how Jihadist preachers erased all sense of individuality among believers; and how tyrants ranging from Stalin to Ivan the Terrible employed mind-killing tactics to replace all sense of certainty with fear and confusion. Drawing on Sexton's deep knowledge of how people become radicalized, some of the greatest minds in the field of crowd psychology, and history's cautionary tales, Manufacturing Delusion is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand why everyone around them is going crazy.
