The Invention That Made Dictators Possible

The Invention That Made Dictators Possible We’re taught that the printing press sparked freedom, literacy, and the Enlightenment. But there’s a darker side to this story. The same machine that spread knowledge also revealed something rulers had never possessed before: the ability to standardize belief across entire populations. From medieval Europe to the Reformation, from church censorship to state propaganda, the printing press didn’t just change how fast ideas traveled — it changed who could control them. This is the hidden history of how print made mass persuasion possible… and how that logic scaled across centuries into the age of dictators, propaganda, and psychological control. This is not the story of how the printing press freed humanity. This is the story of how it taught power how to manipulate humanity at scale. #history #propaganda #printingpress
