Britain Today

[EndtheMadnessNow]

So, Britain is restricting "eXtreme speech"? That’s even more subjective than so-called "hate speech." If this continues, Britons will be nudged into not speaking at all. The United Kingdom of Silence.


Britain launches crackdown on ‘hyper-masculine’ social media



UK government to give Ofcom power to police what is posted on the internet


On 20 June 2001, the Queen's Speech to the UK Parliament announced the creation of Ofcom. The new body, which was to replace 5 different existing authorities, was conceived as a "super-regulator" to oversee media channels that were rapidly converging through digital transmission. On 29 December 2003, Ofcom launched. Over the next decade, Ofcom was granted more & more power to tighten the Overton window via censorship & surveillance over all communication mediums. Ofcom today is the karenocracy. However, the UK gov is considering to rework its so-called Online Safety Act in order to survive Trump's tariffs.




All it takes to completely change the trajectory of a person or even a whole society is often just a nudge. Developed out of a British intelligence program, the Behavioural Insights Team - "the original nudge unit" which was spun off as a private entity. "There is no reason for the UK taxpayer to be paying us to work for the White House". Mass psychological warfare at scale.


Behavioural Insights Team aka The Nudge Unit

The MINDSPACE report was the result, and helped to make the case for the establishment of the Behavioural Insights Team at the heart of the UK Government.

“Nudge units” – where they came from and what they can do

You could say that the first one began in 2009, when the US government recruited Cass Sunstein to head The Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) to streamline regulations. In 2010, the UK established the first Behavioural Insights Unit (BIT) on a trial basis, under the Cabinet Office. Other countries followed suit, including the US, Australia, Canada, Netherlands, and Germany. Shortly after, countries such as India, Indonesia, Peru, Singapore, and many others started exploring the application of behavioral insights to their policies and programs. International institutions such as the World Bank, UN agencies, OECD, and EU have also established behavioral insights units to support their programs. And just this month, the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland launched its own Behavioral Economics Unit.
