In the contemporary information landscape, individuals are exposed to an overwhelming volume of content delivered through digital and traditional media channels. This saturation does not merely inform—it distorts, desensitizes, and contributes to a subtle yet pervasive psychological condition: collective learned helplessness.

Many Disney films adapt works from the Victorian period, which is often called the Golden Age of children's literature.

What is the new way to pump a phenomenon, so people tire of it or fear it? How can powerful entities water down opponent’s tea? How can powerful entities steamroll grand policy? With mass formation psychosis. In 2021, a few M.D.s ventured opinions about mass formation psychosis. The people who control the news media and the public schools have the ability to not only smother opposition. But to create an idiocracy that doesn’t question.

Leigh Gilmore provides a new account of #MeToo that reveals how storytelling by survivors propelled the call for sexual justice beyond courts and high-profile cases. At a time when the cultural conversation was fixated on appeals to legal and bureaucratic systems, narrative activism—storytelling in the service of social change—elevated survivors as authorities. Their testimony fused credibility and accountability into the #MeToo effect: uniting millions of separate accounts into an existential demand for justice and the right to be heard.

Conspiracy theories, and particularly the belief that elements of the world are secretly controlled by individuals or groups, have been around for as long as people have lived in groups. Perhaps that’s inevitable—after all, those who are excluded from power are very likely to be inclined to see their position not as an outcome of their own choices or situation but because of the secret machinations of shadowy groups. One of the most widely discussed conspiracy theories concerns what has become known as the New World Order.

On March 14, 1912, Hillsville, Virginia, native Floyd Allen (1856–1913) was convicted of three criminal charges: assault, maiming, and the rescue of prisoners in custody. What had begun as a scuffle between Allen's nephews over a young woman ended with him being charged as the guilty party after he allegedly hit a deputy in the head with a pistol.

Es wird alles immer schlimmer, eine schreckliche Nachricht jagt die andere: Die Reichen werden reicher, die Armen ärmer. Es gibt immer mehr Kriege, Gewaltverbrechen, Naturkatastrophen. Viele Menschen tragen solche beängstigenden Bilder im Kopf. Doch sie liegen damit grundfalsch. Unser Gehirn verführt uns zu einer dramatisierenden Weltsicht, die mitnichten der Realität entspricht, wie der geniale Statistiker und Wissenschaftler Hans Rosling erklärt.

Ich frage mich, ob ein Hund sich so lange von Politikern treten lassen würde, wie es die Menschen derzeit tun. Respekt, so ein Durchhaltevermögen, eigentlich unbegreiflich. Nach diversen Gesprächen mit befreundeten Psychologen wurde mir klar, dass dieses unterwürfige Verhalten seit Generationen schleichend geprägt und systematisch programmiert wurde. Die Grundbausteine dieser einer Dressur gleichenden Gedankenkontrolle werden zum Teil durch Elternhaus, Schule und Medien vermittelt.

Dalle video-novel di Youtube alle Instagram Stories. Dalle narrazioni di marca al brand journalism. Dagli spazi urbani alle piattaforme espanse. Viviamo in un flusso incessante di contenuti e informazioni. L'universo di conoscenze che abbiamo costruito - e che ci portiamo in tasca - passa sempre di più attraverso format e media narrativi. Oggi le storie sono dappertutto: ci curano, ci trasformano, ci atterriscono persino. Con una storia, non siamo più di fronte a un prodotto da comprare, un'azienda da seguire, un marchio da ammirare, un servizio da sottoscrivere.

It was a program conceived in secret by a group of men. Some were doctors; others were military officers and government officials—all with top-secret security clearances. They called it the Similar Likeness Project, and it would serve as the foundation for an enigma that would soon become one of the greatest mysteries in history. The project’s carefully curated children would be secret weapons—trained, assessed, and groomed to perfection. If they were needed for a mission, they would be brought into the fold. If not, they would live a normal life without even knowing the difference.

As television began to overtake the political landscape in the 1960s, network broadcast companies, bolstered by powerful lobbying interests, dominated screens across the nation. Yet over the next three decades, the expansion of a different technology, cable, changed all of this. 24/7 Politics tells the story of how the cable industry worked with political leaders to create an entirely new approach to television, one that tethered politics to profits.

Уникальный источник захватывающей информации о развитии соц.медиа. Современные средства коммуникации и способы передачи информации стали настолько важной частью нашей жизни, что мы уже не представляем себе мир вокруг нас без социальных сетей, мессенджеров и сотовой связи. Путь, который проделали медиа за прошедший век, нам кажется абсолютно естественным и единственно верным. Но для советских ученых двадцатых, шестидесятых и даже восьмидесятых годов он был отнюдь не очевиден.

«Ogni volta in cui le donne vengono ammazzate la reazione unanime è sempre quella di un composto, sommesso, quasi imbarazzato: "poverina"». Quando leggiamo la notizia di un femminicidio stiamo in realtà leggendo un'altra storia: quella di chi quel gesto l'ha compiuto, quasi mai di chi l'ha subito. Come se la vittima non fosse al centro della vicenda, e non potesse - neppure da morta - ricevere l'attenzione che le spetta.

What do people in the United States and Europe think about the rich? There are several thousand books and articles on stereotypes and prejudices directed at women, people of various races or nationalities, and even the poor.
