Marketing has an ugly side!
You might not want to hear about it, but it’s critical that you do. In today’s video, I draw from Canada social issues related to an uprising to show you why marketing propaganda and media control are dangerous for society.
Currently, in Ottawa, there's an uprising by truckers known as the Freedom Convoy. And how the government has handled the situation, plus how the media has covered the issue, shows us just how true this statement is: Marketing IS propaganda. It's indoctrination.
It's sometimes necessary to see marketing for what it CAN be. In the past, there was no social media but there's always been a lot of other platforms and media control of sorts that have aided the spread of marketing propaganda during critical social phenomena such as wars.
In our current global context, marketing is being used to shape the world view in a way that’s favorable to the powers that are dominant. This can be very dangerous, and it needs to be seen for what it is.
Watch until the end to see how marketing propaganda and media control can be a dangerous thing, not only for Canada, but for countries all over the world.
