The Business Of Ignorance - Edward Bernays
Update: 2025-09-30
Description
Ignorance has never been random, it has always been designed. Edward Bernays, known as the father of propaganda, exposed how stupidity could be manufactured, packaged, and sold as the most profitable commodity of the modern world. He showed how media, advertising, and public opinion could be manipulated to reshape entire societies not by spreading knowledge, but by cultivating ignorance.
And today, the pattern continues. Propaganda no longer hides in the shadows, it’s disguised as entertainment. Noise is celebrated, wisdom is silenced, and distraction becomes the new form of control. What Bernays uncovered is now amplified on a global scale: ignorance has been monetized, and the cost is our freedom, our awareness, and our truth.
