Manufacturing Obedience: How Religion, Corporations and The State Weaponizes Fear- And How to Break

Power doesn't just demand obedience-it manufactures it. Manufacturing Obedience pulls back the curtain on how the three pillars of authority (religion, corporations, and the state) exploit primal fear to manipulate behavior. Churches preach damnation to ensure devotion. Corporations weaponize job insecurity to enforce conformity. Governments inflate threats to justify surveillance. Blending sharp analysis with historical examples-from medieval indulgences to modern 'culture of fear' politics-this book reveals the shared playbook of institutional control. Yet it's not just critique: actionable strategies show how to detox from fear-mongering, reclaim critical thought, and build unshakable autonomy. Essential for activists, skeptics, and anyone who suspects they're being played.
