College, said this declaration of a Muslim ban coming from
Bannon through the White House is "Shock Event"
manipulation. She said in her essay that historically these
events have been used to get the masses arguing
among themselves and so distract from the purpose of
protests. Historically, there are many such political
maneuverings that have swayed opinion or just plain
brought the public to heel, and bolstered Presidential
approval ratings to boot.
Let's pretend that Bannon and company wanted to end
all these protests that are making our new President so
uncomfortable and they are feeling a loss of power and/or
positions and they staged this shock event without even
passing the declaration through their own party channels.
A really big "shock event", something like 9/11, could then
be staged. A "terrorist" major killing event could then set
off all sorts of assault rifle revenge and confusion among
arguing groups and liberals calling for calm and social
media stories made up by varied vying groups. This would
result in a parade of puppets that make up this cabinet
to decree martial law. The protestors would lose their
voices and their power and all would be ceded to the
government The many would see this as reasonable and the
few would come to understand this as how fascism
comes to a democratic society.
