Controlling the historical narrative is a very fundamental weapon

Controlling the historical narrative has always been recognized by rulers and their opponents as one of the most fundamental, if not the most fundamental weapons of propaganda. Further, propaganda is the most powerful weapon of warfare (at least pre-robotic warfare, that is), for if you cannot convince the public to follow the ruler you cannot get them to wage war with sufficient conviction. Therefore in order to defeat a tyrannical opponent - one that has written a false historical narrative to promote their agenda and which has caused the public to become almost totally ignorant of the factual history - it is mandatory (mandatory!) to use the propaganda tool "History" as a means to promote the censored, elided, ignore, misinterpreted, distorted, obfuscated facts to the public. But first it is necessary for the rebels to understand that this is a weapon, a fundamental one, that absolutely must be made use of. After that has been achieved, then the rebels will think of useful ways to use that weapon, and to use it constantly, daily, at all times, in their rebellion.

Quote:

«Favorite examples of propaganda art against tyranny which had great influence.» - Arthur Koestler[wp]

in his novel Sonnenfinsternis (Darkness at Noon^[wp], 1940), and The Gulag Archipelago^[wp] by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn^[wp] (1973) did immeasurable harm to the Soviet dictatorship by revealing an alternative narrative. Koestler's book was hugely influential in the US in causing many to quit supporting Stalinism. Solzhenitsyn's influence was of epic proportions.

In short: It is impossible to win the propaganda war without setting out to completely destroy the historical narrative (fake history) that stands behind the present-day agendas (as their moral; justification). The opponent has done its job well. It is a worthy opponent. We will not win unless we, too, become a worthy opponent.

Quote:

«So gründlich die kommunistischen Machthaber auch vorgingen, so geglückt die Umerziehung auch zu sein schien, am Ende scheiterte das Menschenexperiment. Auf die Dauer war die Kluft zwischen Propaganda und Wirklichkeit zu groß, um nicht durchschaut zu werden. In seinem brillanten Essay "Versuch, in der Wahrheit zu leben" empfahl der tschechische Dissident Václav Havel[wp], die staatliche Allmacht durch Alternativen "unabhängigen Lebens" zu untergraben. Das erwies sich als erfolgreiches Modell. [...] Voraussetzung dafür war, den "falschen und sinnlosen Sprachgebrauch" der Herrschenden aufzugeben und "in der Wahrheit zu leben". An dieser Stelle wird nebenbei die Frage beantwortet, was man heute tun kann, um die immer mehr um sich greifenden Sprachbarrieren zu schleifen, die verhindern sollen, dass die Realität wahrheitsgetreu abgebildet wird.» - Vera Lengsfeld[wp]
