Please review my post below carefully and remove it if, in your judgement, you find it not appropriate for this forum. In no way I’m admirer nor I want this blog to be associated with the movement this person represented.
I found the quotes below particularly relevant today, like the author became mentor to some of our politicians. You can easily find who he was by copying one of the quotes to your favourite search engine. The second last is well known. The last one, at least to me, is the most scary.
Are we heading in the same direction? For you to judge.

“Propaganda must facilitate the displacement of aggression by specifying the targets for hatred.”
“The masses need something that will give them a thrill of horror.”
“Propaganda works best when those who are being manipulated are confident they are acting on their own free will.”
“It is the absolute right of the State to supervise the formation of public opinion.”
“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.”
“It is not propaganda’s task to be intelligent, its task is to lead to success.”
“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.”
“If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it, and you will even come to believe it yourself.”
“If the day should ever come when we must go, if some day we are compelled to leave the scene of history, we will slam the door so hard that the universe will shake and mankind will stand back in stupefaction.”
