Aristotle said, "Excellence is not an act, but a habit". Ethics has always been based on habit-formation: training in useful behaviors that, once uploaded, are carried out reflexively. Other forms of habit-formation, however, occur. Propaganda is the entrainment of bad habits. The father of propaganda Edward Bernays said: "The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country." Bernays famously created the social habit of women smoking (after he got a contract from the tobacco industry to popularize it). Propaganda, as I said, is the weaponization of habit formation. Ethics is its antidote. DISCLAIMER: Views and opinions expressed on The Daniel Natal Show are solely those of the host and do not necessarily represent those of The New American.

The Biden Administration is sending a delegation to Paris next week to celebrate U.S. re-entry in the United Nations’ education-indoctrination organ, UNESCO, reversing another Trump-era policy. We examine the admitted one-world goals of UNESCO, which influences America’s K-12 education.   In other news, the Biden Department of Justice has quietly removed large portions from its website regarding domestic and international child sex trafficking; the UN’s International Maritime Organization established a net-zero greenhouse gas emissions goal to be achieved by or around 2050; and more information has surfaced indicating the Covid jabs include harmful contaminants that trigger cancer.   In the second half of the show, Selwyn Duke discusses the attempt to normalize pedophilia, and Joe Wolverton talks about the Founding Fathers' views on calling a Constitutional Convention.
