Are modern democratic debates, institutional distrust, and media narratives unfolding naturally, or are they engineered through decades-old psychological research? In this video, we break down the mechanics of information warfare, tracing back to the RAND Corporation's early research in the 1948s and modern declassified research papers. We explore the tactical concept known as the "Firehose of Falsehood" which is a propaganda model designed to overwhelm public attention with high-volume, rapid, and continuous messaging to paralyze critical thinking.
