A deleted government report exploring how to make the public alter its behavior to accept the new \u2018green economy\u2019 reveals how COVID-19 restrictions have created a population with a \u201cdeep set reverence\u201d for authority and a \u201cpowerful tendency to conform.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The report was inadvertently published by the British government before being hastily pulled down, but numerous journalists were able to retrieve its contents.<\/p>\n

The document explored how to weaponize behavioral psychology to \u2018nudge\u2019 the public into supporting measures and adopting behavior without them explicitly knowing they\u2019re being manipulated.<\/p>\n

The investigation found that the same techniques the government used to force people into accepting lockdown could be used to make them change their lifestyles in the name of preventing climate change.<\/p>\n

Under the heading \u201cprinciples for successful behaviour,\u201d the paper noted;<\/p>\n

\u201cGovernment statements, actions and laws powerfully shape perceptions of normative and acceptable behaviour. For instance, even with public criticism being high, many still perceived government approval as the yardstick for safe behaviour during COVID-19 \u2018we\u2019re allowed to do this now [so must be safe]\u2026\u2019. This reveals, for many, a deep set reverence for legitimate government authority, regardless of one\u2019s personal political views.\u201d<\/p>\n

While PR stunts such as having officials vaccinated live on television worked to convince people of the narrative, elite hypocrisy (public officials violating lockdown rules) was found to cause significant damage to public trust.<\/p>\n

\u201cPerceived hypocrisy can do a lot to undermine efforts to build public engagement and support. This was observed during the COVID-19 pandemic when prominent authority figures broke guidelines, leading to measurable reductions in public compliance as well as shifting attitudes.\u201d<\/p>\n
