The Century of the Self

Don't miss this must watch documentary by Adam Curtis

This episode explains how politicians on the left, in both Britain and America, turned to the techniques developed by business to read and fulfil the inner desires of the self. - The aim of those who had originally created these techniques had not been to liberate the people but to develop a new way of controlling them.

2. I don't consider Tony Blair or Bill Clinton as left. They "played" left in a system

where in fact there is only one party. The party of the rich operating in the backstage.

4. Yes, a given. Repeat the lie often enough and it becomes reality

3. I found this very informative

with details, players and theories behind what I surmised must be going on. Would be v. helpful for more people to see this, esp. beyond DU.
