Expose them as globalists and replace them, I guess. But even then, so as long as there is this unholy alliance between politicians and multinational corporations, the politicians will enact policies that support the elitist's globalist agenda. The idea that lobbying is moral was normalized by the Arch-]ew propagandist Bernays, who is considered the "father of public opinion" and whose philosophical worldview is eerily similar to what the power dynamics of the world have become today. Bernays' vision was of a utopian society in which individuals' dangerous libidinal energies, the psychic and emotional energy associated with instinctual biological drives that Bernays viewed as inherently dangerous, could be harnessed and channeled by a corporate elite for economic benefit. Through the use of mass production, big business could fulfill the cravings of what Bernays saw as the inherently irrational and desire-driven masses, simultaneously securing the niche of a mass-production economy (even in peacetime), as well as sating what he considered to be dangerous animal urges that threatened to tear society apart if left unquelled. Therefore, Bernays argued that the manipulation of public opinion was a necessary part of democracy. He advocated for centralization and planning in the form of "corporate socialism."
"The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. ...We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of. This is a logical result of the way in which our democratic society is organized. Vast numbers of human beings must cooperate in this manner if they are to live together as a smoothly functioning society. ...In almost every act of our daily lives, whether in the sphere of politics or business, in our social conduct or our ethical thinking, we are dominated by the relatively small number of persons...who understand the mental processes and social patterns of the masses. It is they who pull the wires which control the public mind.
