Beat me to it! I was going to say we should refer to propaganda material as Bernays Sources.

"Breakfast is the most important meal of the day" is one of his most famous marketing slogans. It was used to sell bacon as a breakfast meat. Streaky bacon was previously like any other meat and served at any time of day. Bernays was amazing at his job.

I have been thinking about this soooo much. Like these people are nice and normal but capable of such evil shit. My brain breaks. I want them to download my mental feed and show them what I see.

Can we petition to make the day of his death (March 9) a holiday where we all celebrate by burning him in effigy? It seems fitting.
