Narrative Warfare: There Is No Need For Profit From Propaganda Operations

Recently Millenial Woes began a series at his Substack feed called "The Seeds of Gay Doom".

This series talked about the revival of British television classic Doctor Who and how even at the time in 2005 the showrunner (Russel T. Davies) was hard at work using his position as the showrunner to produce propaganda- not entertainment.

Working for the British Broadcasting Corporation meant working for a corporation that had no need to produce a profit as it was state-supported and sponsored, economically as well as politically. Considering what has become of the Establishment in the United Kingdom, that is not mere Rhetoric; Davies should be considered a Client to a Patron that seeks the demoralization, dispossession, and destruction of the English, Scottish, Welsh, and Irish nations.

"But the latest seasons are ratings failures."

SO. FUCKING. WHAT?

Propaganda operations are not profit-seeking commercial enterprises. They are cultural and political operations; economics is a reward of Patronage and not the measure of the effectiveness of the same.

Therefore we can see that the only likely route to shutting this operation, or any other such operation, is to force the Client to compete for resources from the Patron with rival Clients. Yes, this does mean not giving time and attention to Davies' propaganda; it also means being very loud, very obnoxious, very conspicuous about giving that time and attention to what would be seen as a rival operation.

This is, by the way, how Globohomo's Thralls see the massive rise of attention, time, and money given to Japanese, Korean, and Chinese media- Clients serving a rival Patron.

The Client sees the alternative as a threat. The Patron agrees, and therefore uses other Clients to attack the alternative with the aim of either capturing or destroying it so that the Client's propaganda can succeed.

So long as the Patron is willing to back the Client, no amount of losses will put a stop to the propaganda operation. Therefore the objective is to convince the Patron to stop supporting the Client.

Identify the Patron. No, not the institution; identify the specific individual, fix him in place, and go after him personally and publically. Find out what his vulnerabilities are and hammer them without mercy; make him feel pain that only someone that can be a Patron can feel- the pain of loss. Loss of face, losss of prestige, loss of power, loss of wealth, loss of the things that DEFINE a Patron- these are the pains you must inflict and you must do so with supreme cruelty.

The objective is to make it clear to the Patron that disavowing the Client, exiling him from his network, and never re-engaging him thereafter is preferable to the damage he sustains by retaining him.

Individually, this is difficult. As a group, this is attainable.

Succeed at doing this once and the threat of it happening to others will bring them into line; no Patrons wants the illusion of power broken like that.

Because "Get Woke, Go Broke" is not a thing, especially when what "goes broke" was formerly an enemy operation that they stole and repurposed for their purposes as Davies did to Doctor Who. To break a propaganda operation, you have to break the Patron-Client relationship that enables it, and that means going after the Patron commissioning it. Sever that link and you win. Win and you get closer to seeing Empire fall.
