Beaudrillard - that’s the one. Simulacra and Simulacrum or whatnot. I’ve only read references to it, but it seems to be true. Most people are normies, living their lives in a prison built for their minds already. If the Media were to start broadcasting that “All Traditional Catholics Are A Threat To Society And Must Be Eliminated”, there’s a good chance the majority would just go along with it. That might be an exaggeration, but not by much, and not for long.
