Piers Robinson, co-director of the
Organization for Propaganda Studies, is an internationally recognized expert on propaganda, but not just any propaganda.
His focus is on conflict and war and the role of propaganda within that framework. He is also an associate researcher with the Working Group on Propaganda and the 9/11 ‘War on Terror’ and has served as an advisor to NATO leaders.
From 2016 to 2019, Professor Robinson chaired the department of politics, society and political journalism at the University of Sheffield.
He spoke at length about the propaganda aspects of Covid-19 in an Aug. 4 interview with Asia Pacific Today of Australia.
Covid-19 is probably one of the biggest propaganda operations we’ve seen in history because of the global nature and the resources put into it,” Robinson said. “It was pretty clear from the beginning that propaganda was being employed.”
In the U.S. one of the main spigots of propaganda has been Dr. Anthony Fauci and the media’s elevation of this man to god-like status, hanging on his every word and never pressing him to provide data to back up his constantly swerving pronouncements. Every Western government has their version of Fauci, spouting ever-changing, confusing information meant to keep the population off balance, afraid and confused.
After watching the above video, see my recent reports on this topic and you will begin to understand how the Covid narrative has been carefully controlled from the outset, with a clear end game in sight:

Red Dragon Rising: China preparing for future invasion of AmericaRobinson documents how the British government sought expert advice from behavioral psychologists on how to use the media to manipulate public opinion by ratcheting up the level of fear surrounding the Covid pandemic.
He cited U.K. government documents from March 2020 referencing groups skilled in applied psychology. They helped the government craft a plan of propaganda to drive a fear-based narrative with the goal of causing behavioral change.
One such group was SPI-B or the Independent Scientific Influenza Group on Behaviors.
“The key part of SPI-B’s behavioral change strategy that seems to have been adopted was to ‘persuade through fear,'” Robinson said.
The persuasion section of the document states: “A substantial number of people still do not feel sufficiently personally threatened.”
Appendix B of the documents lists 10 options that can be used to increase social distancing in the public.
Option 2 advises: “Use media to increase sense of personal threat.”
