Psy-Op: Executive Order Creates an Orwellian Policy of Enlightenment and Propaganda
The ink is still wet on a brand new executive order that reads like a cross between the Reich’s Ministry of Enlightenment and Propaganda and George Orwell’s Ministry of Truth.
Of course, in true propagandist form, President Obama isn’t calling

it “Using Behavioral Science Insights to Better Serve the American
People.”
To-may-to. To-mah-to.
Whatever you want to call it, prepare to be the subject of
manipulation and behavioral experiments. This is a giant, official
national psy-op and they’re announcing to us that they’re doing it.
What’s a Psy-Op?
Psychological Operations or PSYOP are
planned operations to convey selected information and indicators to
audiences to influence their emotions, motives, objective reasoning, and
ultimately the behavior of organizations, groups, and individuals. (source)
