Industrial Propaganda

History
"Industrial Propaganda" is a series of randomized text created by Velydia Prescott, it is host to a variety of Velydia's ideas, including her supposed warnings to the Stormwind public about the dangers of being manipulated by higher powers within the Kingdom. The book has an unknown amount of variations, and listed below lies what is titled 'Version 1' the most common draft to be found from the streets.

Chapter 1
It is important for the people of Stormwind to distinguish the Kingdom, from the Business, to the Underground. All three have a stake in control, and all three utilize similar methods of wrestling, vestiges of this seen throughout the history of Azeroth. The initial thought of these techniques start bleakly as "manipulation" or "advertisement", and while it holds these values, to begin to understand it, you must look at things from a broader, yet more concise perspective. Public opinion is the foundation for this new perspective, in understanding the psychology of the 'organs' of Stormwind. These organs do not get the blood from any feed, or vein, they get it straight from the artery.

Chapter 2
The Kingdom of Stormwind ought to start learning from the unitary values of it's Sisters within the Grand Alliance. It is through these teachings that we can foster creativity and innovation, and an awareness that has evaded all others. Stormwind is a City with potential i believe. Though it begins with the people the first pages of it's new destiny.

Chapter 3
Whether it be the House of Nobles, local businesses, or strong-arm crime syndicates, they all practice using the arm of sophistry on Stormwind's people. Public opinion can shape how an entity is perceived by it's home groups, and we would do well not to marginalize the importance of this grandiose ability, for it doesn't take a strong knowledge in politics to understand that influence can make or break an individual or group. The social construction of Stormwind's people during the past decade has provided us with the precursors for our inevitable pale, and the doors to our thought close tighter and tighter with each noise off the wooden floor. I speak to you not as an up-end philosopher, but as mere letters on the page, bold and outward in it's meaning in an effort to get you to wake up.

Chapter 4
The framing of public relations has broken Kingdoms in the past. Need i make reference to Alterac? A Kingdom that fell only due to the incompetence of it's leaders. Are we doomed to meet the same fate? The Illidari, Ebon Blade, and even before both the influx of Night Elves, we have framed our opinions around a variety of anecdotes and stereotypes, relying on others for what our beleifs about them would eventually become. The arm of sophistry aforementioned does well to take these Human instincts hostage, as a method of overwriting our simple instincts. The classical so called 'axioms' of what is rational choice do not hold anymore. Common sense is a myth in today's Azeroth. This holds true by the neck of values of old, which have denounced through and through the dark magistrys of the Ebon Blade and Illidari, but war against a common enemy pushed us to evolve and to eliminate these rationals.

Chapter 5
The challenge of stifling political violence between ourselves and the Horde, has always been a mere campaign -- an inner war -- of our instincts and priority. We did well enough to remain steadfast in our priorities, but now i am convinced more than ever that the battle between Good and Evil is inevitable on that which we know as home. It was inevitable for Lordaeron, Silvermoon, Stromgarde, and even Ironforge for a time. We are not safe from the tides of war. Depending on your argumentation viewpoint, you would see the battle between Good and Evil as a mere opprotunity for the Nobles, Crime groups, and manufacture businesses to make overwhelming amounts of cash. This is not an entirely wrong, though as a Nation in post-war Azeroth, we ought to step up to the plate not only in our civil economy, but our military economy as well. Stormwind has had struggles in maintaining order in it's own provinces, much less waging war. It's one of the many reasons we hold strong in the Alliance, we can't hold up the burning torch alone anymore than we can try and blow it out. Some believe this will change, and it might, though for the wrong reasons. The Nobles, Criminals, and Businesses want you to be complacent. Why else wouldn't they? An easier job for them, means a rougher future for the rest of us.

Chapter 6
What this all means is we had best focus on our needs as opposed to our desires. Stormwind's people has failed to apprehend the sense of order and self-direction it strived on in the past, and we knew what exactly had to be done after the First War, we had to rebuild, get better, create a future for the generations. Because for the first time in History, it was we whom hoisted on stilts the bastion of man. And it is this bastion of man that treasures the blood and merit of a million. The Kingdom of Stormwind faces tough times, but it's people are not without a strong chance for total absolution in the way of knowledge and prosperity. The night sky gives us each night numberless sparks each lit a flame. We know them well, though we must not be complacent, eventually the flames will burn out. If you have read this far, then undoubtedly you must realize that the majority of Stormwind's people, especially it's youth are weak in rational, and are subject to the violent herd mentality that the masters of sophistry crave so much. You can be controlled in desirable ways, for your conscious thoughts can be driven by external axioms of our reality. Propaganda is the modern industrial instrument. Propaganda is the redheaded step child of chaos. Propaganda keeps Order. But in the fight between Good and Evil, have these definitions become distorted?
