To know the art of impressing the imagination of crowds is to know at the same time the
art of governing them...

We must become a cult, write our philosophy of life in flaming headlines, and sell our
cause in the market. No matter if we meanwhile surrender every value for which we
stand, we must strive to cajole the majority into imagining itself on our side... It is
numbers, not values that count - quantity not quality.

The immorality of those who adopt Satan’s policies is observed in the above quotations by
Gustave Le Bon. To such men the end justifies the means. No matter if lies, deception, and
atrocities, even the murder of innocent men and women, are the instruments used to
control and shape the public mind, all is justified in their thinking that the greater good of
civilization might be gained.

One man who adopted Le Bon’s theories wholeheartedly was Ivy Lee, the son of a Methodist
Minister from Georgia.

Ivy Lee

Lee’s public relations work reflected a newly emerging variation on the theme that “truth
happens to an idea...” Something asserted might become a fact, regardless of its
connection to actual events.

This son of a Methodist minister was greatly awed by the mighty men of his day. He idolized
men of power and wealth. Ivy Lee became a highly effective tool wielded by men of power
to accomplish their purposes. One of the men Lee worked for was John D. Rockefeller, Jr..
In 1914, miners went on strike at one of the Rockefeller mine interests in Colorado, the
Colorado Iron and Fuel Company. Rockefeller hired thugs to attack the striking miners. 14
miners, their wives, and children were viciously murdered in what became known as the
Ludlow Massacre of 1914.

The Rockefeller name was already highly despised by the public, but the outcry over the
slaughter of the miners and their family members fanned public outrage to a fever pitch.
This resulted in public hearings being instituted to look into the matter.
