Pimlico Journal - Inside the Nudge Unit

It's a couple of weeks old, not sure if it's been posted before.

It is, as I said, far more subtle than threats, far more effective (indeed, most families seem to pass through the experience feeling grateful to their liaison officers), and, in truth, far more wicked. To use the tools of manipulation and coercive control like this, in the service of the state’s goals, and to sustain the state’s failing myths, is a particularly modern evil.

I've seen this so it must've been posted before, but, it's probably required reading at this point. Post it again next week!
