Snow White -- Mind Control, Dysgenics and Soft Gene--o--cide. The Poison Apple in Dark City

Welcome back, denizens of Dark City...

The transmission of cultural knowledge and societal values, through the vehicle of storytelling, serves not only as a means of education but also as a mechanism for social control. By embedding certain ideologies and beliefs into the frameworks of fairy tales and folk narratives, the ruling powers can effectively shape the perceptions and attitudes of future generations. This form of psychological operation capitalizes on the child's vulnerability during formative years, allowing these implanted ideas to influence behaviors and decisions unconsciously as the individuals mature.

Consequently, the existential threat posed by unchallenged ideologies can significantly undermine community resilience and adaptive capacity, making it imperative for those seeking autonomy to recognize and deconstruct these embedded narratives as a prerequisite for fostering critical thinking and collective agency against oppressive structures within society.

The archetypal themes found in fairy tales, particularly those concerning the relationship between the maiden and the crone, elucidate the psychological and emotional conflict accompanying societal standards of beauty and success. The depiction of the crone's envy of the maiden symbolizes a pervasive concern about aging and competition within gender dynamics. As women age and face perceived obsolescence in their fertility and desirability, this narrative resonates with real-world anxieties about self-worth and reproductive value.

Sinister forces employ manipulative tactics to divert younger women from traditional paths of fulfillment. This dynamic reflects a broader cultural phenomenon where older women, feeling threatened by the inexorable passage of time, engage in deceptive tactics to undermine their younger counterparts' efforts to acquire reproductive success and happiness.

Social groups are vulnerable to hostile outgroups who seek to manipulate successful survival strategies through infiltration and introduction of maladaptive strategies, by which its traditional information systems—in the form of cultural legends, myths and folk tales —can be intentionally corrupted to incept dysgenic attitudes and beliefs that significantly lower fertility rates leading to eventual extinction. The imagery presented in "Dark City" serves as a cautionary allegory about the vulnerability of communal strategies to external sabotage, which can result in a gradual process of decline, akin to the effects of a virus on a computer.
