  MSNBC's legal expert breaks down the ways disinformation has become a tool to drive voters to extremes, disempower our legal structures, and consolidate power in the hands of the few. 
   
   
   
  American society is more polarized than ever before. We are strategically being pushed apart by disinformation—the deliberate spreading of lies disguised as truth—and it comes at us from all sides: opportunists on the far right, Russian misinformed social media influencers, among others. It's endangering our democracy and causing havoc in our electoral system, schools, hospitals, workplaces, and in our Capitol. Advances in technology including rapid developments in artificial intelligence threaten to make the problems even worse by amplifying false claims and manufacturing credibility. In Attack from Within, legal scholar and analyst Barbara McQuade, shows us how to identify the ways disinformation is seeping into all facets of our society and how we can fight against it. 
   
   
   
  Disinformation is designed to evoke a strong emotional response to push us toward more extreme views, unable to find common ground with others. The false claims that led to the breathtaking attack on our Capitol in 2020 may have been only a dress rehearsal. Attack from Within shows us how to prevent it from happening again, thus preserving our country's hard-won democracy.

  Control through Dependency -...

  Dependency is one of the most powerful tools of control, shaping the way individuals behave, think, and perceive their own agency. When someone is made to rely heavily on another person, organization, or system, their ability to make independent choices becomes severely restricted. This loss of autonomy often leads to a dynamic where the dependent individual feels trapped, unable to break free due to financial, emotional, or social limitations. Understanding how dependency is used as a control mechanism is essential for recognizing when it is being manipulated for someone else’s gain. 
  At its core, dependency-based control thrives on restricting access to critical resources. These resources can be financial, such as when a controlling partner withholds money or employment opportunities to keep the other person reliant on them. It can also be emotional, as seen in relationships where one person conditions love and approval on the other’s compliance. In extreme cases, entire organizations or governments create a structured form of reliance, making individuals believe that they cannot survive without their continued support. 
  A key component of dependency control is fostering a sense of learned helplessness. When people are repeatedly placed in situations where they feel incapable of acting on their own, they begin to believe that they are inherently powerless. Over time, this mindset erodes self-confidence and discourages any attempt to challenge the controlling force. Those who manipulate dependency often reinforce this belief by convincing individuals that the outside world is dangerous, that they are not competent enough to succeed alone, or that their well-being is entirely dependent on maintaining the current relationship or system.

  Uncrowned - Royal Heirs Who...

  Ashley Mantle

  • 0

  Through the centuries, succession to the English throne has largely been dictated by blood. Children were born to the role, their destinies entwined with that of the nation. They would be raised with the expectation that they would eventually take their place on the throne and rule the land. But not all those expected to wear the crown completed this journey. 
   
  Ashley Mantle explores the lives of several heirs apparent, from the Norman Conquest to the present day, who were destined to assume the throne of England but, for one reason or another, did not. You will meet such figures as Robert Curthose, eldest son of William the Conqueror, whose ineptitude saw him twice barred from the crown; Edward V, whose disappearance in 1483 still remains a mystery; Lady Jane Grey, the tragic Nine Days Queen; and Sophia, Electress of Hanover, who died months before her accession. Along the way we will explore the nature of rule to determine what was expected of an heir and how an heir was groomed in preparation for their ascent, as well as how the rules surrounding the succession have changed over the centuries.
