No need for ideological and government ops (at least not yet), just a good misdirection of ideas from an unwitting person or grifter, that were decidedly purveyed around western liberal mass media, at face value or manipulated beyond originator's intent.

I don't wanna hear shit like "1984". Those were made with the intent to be blatantly anti-communist and pro-western

An example would include the Stanford prison experiments

It turns out that the cruelty exhibited by the guards was not spontaneous. On the contrary; the guards were coached beforehand by Zimbardo. And some of the prisoners have admitted that the distress they exhibited was faked.

(Note: lemme guess, someone gonna @ on how I'm ironically use pop culture to debunk pop culture. Yes, we do live in a society...)

Nonetheless, this study was one of many that solidified "human nature is inherently evil" sort of shticks...

    Generally speaking I think it is, because a level of insurance, which is just risk calculation, except under this system it is risk calculation with the profit motive, will likely exist under any system. It doesn't particularly matter to me, the tech comes first, but the particular application of the tech is driven by the assessment based in profit motive, not further development of the tech in concert with other technology and aesthetic.
