My understand of Hyper Normalisation is that it is the construction of a fake reality that everyone agrees on: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HyperNormalisation

Which is different to flooding the channels with contradictory information, so that no-one knows what to believe.

The film 'Hyper Normalisation', by Adam Curtis, is well worth watching, BTW.



Flooding the channels is step one. Construction of the fake reality follows. I also recommend that documentary, it details "how we got here".


Well, that fits as well for the CG crowd.


CG?


Calin Georgescu, the candidate that hasrussian support. Kind of how US abbreviates Donald Trump as DJT.


>that everyone agrees on

(or, at least, pretends to)
