The Educational System-Covert Mind Control?

I have studied the educational system in America for a long time. I guess that thinking like a scientist has made me more aware and analytical about the institutions in America. From my days as a kid reading Gunnar Myrdal's great treatise on the sociology of America to what I study today, I have always been interested in the way that society works. I also learned a lot from a researcher named Samuel Bowles, even though he was a communist. I know that truth can be found anywhere, and that everybody has some of it.

All that to say that education in America is controlled, as all institutions in society are. The controllers are doing it with an agenda. Unfortunately, the agenda is hidden from most. This means that if you are not an insider, you must infer or deduce what that agenda is. We can tell what the plan is by what the plan is producing. Education is critical in society because it is the way that the youth in society are molded. They are the future of society, and the way in which they are conditioned to think determines just about every major element of how society will work in the future. If you can control what the young think, you can program the way that the society will function when they reach adulthood.

Charlotte Iserbyt, author of the monumental book The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America, has a video that explains how she was trained to infiltrate the community and get them to accept the changes that were being made to the educational system. It is really sinister and subtle the way in which she worked. Notice how subtle, but powerful, her training was to achieve this. This information is chilling when you think of the level of control of the people who run this system. It seems to be a cakewalk for these people to manipulate and control the thinking of adults as well as their children. The unaware are as gullible as unthinking automatons when faced with the sophisticated psychological strategies being used against them. This is a must-see. You should also read her book mentioned above.

Television Viewing Habits Disturbing

I couldn't believe it when I saw a report that states that the average American household views television for more than 8 hours per day! That is ridiculous, given the remedial levels at which television programming is designed.

It is obvious that the thinking level of most popular television shows is decidedly low. There isn't any earth-shaking thinking going on here. This may be ok for some entertainment, but 8 hours of viewing this mental garbage is not 'just entertainment'. That's actually a total day at work!

We are kidding ourselves if we think that this is innocuous. This is amounting to mental conditioning of America. There is a reason why the level of television programming is so low, and it is not to improve the critical thinking skills of television viewers. Actually, this incessant babble is more designed to entertain, pacify, narcotize and lull the viewer into a false sense of security and a state of dull complacency.

The scary thing about propaganda and mind control are that they are designed to be invisible to the victim. In fact, in order for it to work, the victim has to be ignorant of the tactics being used against him! Remember that the people designing the conditioning are doing it for THEIR benefit.

The study of propaganda, mind control, mass media, mental programming, social conditioning, persuasion and advertising is probably one of the most important things for people to understand in relationship to television. Although it seems to be harmless, the television is the most powerful tool ever designed for control of public perception and popular opinion. The greatest danger lies in the fact that television is so ubiquitous, so subtle, and so seemingly harmless, that it is readily dismissed as being such a serious threat to free thought, rational thought, and freedom itself.

Read some of the articles referenced in this article, and do your own research on the topic. Dictators and other megalomaniacs of years past have only dreamed of having the power at the disposal of the controllers of television programming. After about 75 or so years of research on this subject, they have the manipulation and control of popular opinion down to a science.

This is how people can believe that lies and misconceptions are facts, and how they can not tell the truth from lies. The television programmers construct a mental paradigm a conceptual distance of 3 standard deviations away from truth. In this way, they insure that less than 0.01% of people ever stray far away enough to find the truth. It has been working for years, and is in no threat of being discovered by the sleeping, dumbed-down masses. Do your duty and TURN OFF THE TELEVISION, and do some original thinking, research something independently, or go learn something for a change!

Things are Moving Fast...

It appears to be a quickening taking place, as it seems that newsworthy events are multiplying. There are more occurrences of beatings, murders, "Manchurian Candidate" mass murders, increasing encroachments of the government upon our freedoms, etc.

I had found a short article that outlines what the oligarchs have planned for America's future. I think that we can stop them if we don't play into their traps. I would like to think & hope that people are becoming more sophisticated in their thinking, even if it is just on that all-important emotional level. We must not fall into predetermined traps set up for us that are to be used to ensnare us into activity that will help justify the New World Order (also known as global dictatorship, world fascism, one-world government, etc.).

Some people think that there is nothing that we can do. I beg to differ. I believe that if we maintain a positive attitude and stop working against our own best interests, we have a chance. Remember that the only way that a small minority can dominate and oppress a large majority is through the use of deception. They do not have the bodies to operate the oppression themselves. They MUST trick the majority into regulating and oppressing themselves! This is why they focus intently on social engineering, mind control and brainwashing technology.

There really is no other way for them to maintain their control over society without it! From the perspective of an oligarch, random changes in society can NOT be allowed to develop, lest control of society be lost. For them, the risk is much too great. There are literally quadrillions of dollars at stake, as well as ultimate control of society and the resources of the Earth. Did you really think that the people who play Stratego with the world would not stop at anything to maintain their control and vast wealth?

Remember that in order to understand the oligarch and his motivations, you must place yourself into their mind (using your imagination). Then, you would be able to understand and predict their actions. This, of course, is the reason that the average person does not have a clue about what is really going on here on Earth. The average person only thinks of what he would do in a particular situation. So be sure to insert yourself into a vantage point of what an oligarch would do and think in order to understand what they have done in the past, what they're doing now, and what they have planned for the future. Then, and only then, will you be able to formulate an effective response to their actions and strategies.

Inverted Totalitarianism

I found an excellent review for what appears to be an intriguing book on the decline of America. I've been speaking on these, and related topics for quite some time now. I think that it is becoming increasingly obvious that America is sick, and getting sicker with each passing day. There doesn't appear to be any will or desire inside the people of America to fight this. They have been lied to, controlled, conditioned, and mentally, spiritually, and physically threatened and attacked by their 'leaders'. Unfortunately, most people do not understand this on an intellectual level. They are the victims of intense mind control techniques, but vehemently deny it. But the proof is in the results.

America has been financially hollowed out. Manufacturing and other means of production, which constitute the foundation of a healthy economy, is decidedly absent. It has been wholly exported to 'Third World' countries where labor is much cheaper. So what we have now is a spoiled population that has been accustomed to a high standard of living that is no longer sustainable, economically speaking. In short, we have all of the finer tastes and desires for filet mignon, but only have the financial ability to pay for Spam (the cheap, substandard meat, not UCE).

The Powers-That-Be have engineered this situation. While the average American has been watching American Idol and listening to Britany Spears on his or her Ipod, the PTB has been employing the highest credentialed experts in psychology, advertising, conditioning, persuasion, marketing, etc., to maximize the mind control effect on everyone who watches TV (which is probably over 90% of people). This is why there is no outcry over the dastardly things that are being done to destroy America. These people have been careful not to make any perceived sudden moves that would cause such a discontinuity in the status quo that it would jarringly wake up the American Sheeple. Slow and steady towards the destination (the destruction of the middle class, destruction of trade unions, eradication of true education, assimilation of individuality, demoralization of the populace, impoverishment of many, the culling of the herd, etc.) wins the race. The race goes not to the swift, but to the persistent and diligent. There are very few persistent, diligent, independent thinking Americans left after 50+ years of acculturation by mass media.

This sounds incredulous to most, but this attitude is merely a symptom of high levels of conditioning. They say that when Columbus arrived at the shores of the Americas, the natives couldn't see the ships that were on the sea on the horizon because it didn't fit into their belief structure. In like manner, most people thought that the 'conspiracy theorists' were crazy when they were not in agreement about the Iraq and Afghanistan wars which have subsequently been proven to have been justified based on outright lies. We could go on and on with numerous examples of this. The point is that everybody knows that politicians lie, but yet the People continue to strongly desire to believe them! This is a textbook case study of chronic cognitive dissonance. It takes no Ph.D. in psychology to understand this, but just an ability to think for self without being spoonfed 'your' opinion by some highly paid media toadie.

With the erosion of the economy looming in the future, Americans will not have to believe what I, and others like me say. They will be living with the results of choosing chronic apathy over concern, ignorance over careful study, entertainment over substance, attacking and villifying "conspiracy theorists" instead of adroitly questioning 'authorities', 'going-along-to-get-along' over standing up against the alleged majority on principle, voting Demopublican over refusing to vote for obviously corrupted candidates, watching television over reading books with real content. I can guarantee you that the fruits of such choices will not be pleasant.

I hope that in some way, a significant number of people will be inspired to work to put an end to this pathetic state of affairs in America. I realize that there are a lot of people in America who do not agree with the cabal that has hijacked the country. Let us hope, for the sake of ourselves, our children, and the rest of the world that we succeed in putting an end to this scourge of humanity that calls itself the leadership of America.

Mind Control and Propaganda

I found another good article by Devvy Kidd. She says that the mainstream media will be complicit in the next terror attacks. I say that they've already been complicit in all the previous ones. She speaks on the usual media mouthpieces who ridicule and deride anyone who intelligently questions the official 911 attack story. I've spoken at length in previous posts about the glaring flaws and logical inconsistencies regarding the official 911 story, and won't belabor the point here. The bottom line is that the official 911 story has more holes in it than a piece of swiss cheese. If you don't understand this, or worse yet, it shocks you, then you've been a victim of mind control and propaganda. Realize that the most mind controlled individual is the person who most strongly believes that he isn't the victim of it! It literally couldn't work if the subject knew that he was a victim of it!

The importance of this is critical. If they helped to perpetrate the OKC Bombing, the 1993 WTC Bombing, 911-WTC Bombing, and numerous other lies and attacks upon unwitting Americans, what makes you think they aren't going to do it again and again until they obtain the changes in American government and society that they desire to effect? They slowly move society towards the final goal they seek. Gradualism is their greatest weapon because people are highly prone to become accustomed to just about anything. I remember when $1.00/gallon for gas was outrageous. But now, we're pushing $3.75/gallon and higher, and people just go on like nothing has happened. They tell us that inflation is 4%, but readily admit that food and energy (with the highest price increases) are taken out of the calculations. And you calmly think this isn't a result of mind control and distraction???

The average person merely seeks a bit of entertainment and drugs to ease the pain of reality. The unfortunate thing is that the Band-Aids will not solve the growing problems in society, or in our daily lives. The average person can't (or chooses not to) see the connection between the frauds being perpetrated and their effects on our lives. The more apathy I observe in people I know, the more I know that the destruction of America appears to be a done deal. I really want to be wrong about this.

In fact, I may be wrong. Historically, public sentiment can change in an instant. They say that this was how the Weimar Hyperinflation manifested to people that were citizens in Germany at the time. You should read this article on hyperinflation to get a grasp on what could happen in the US and many other countries. From statistics I've been studying, many (if not most) of the G7 countries are massively inflating their currencies. The best thing to do would be to protect yourself from this hidden wealth confiscation by investing in tangible assets that cannot be manipulated (directly) by the financiers.

Banking System in Crisis

I've just found out that the Fed has recently pumped approximately $38 to 70 billion into the financial markets. Unfortunately, that has not resulted in the effect that they were seeking. In fact, the Dow Jones Industrial Average actually fell subsequent to this liquidity injection! So it would appear that we are entering the danger phase of hyperinflation. This only points to the fact that the PTB have finally got their wish--the destruction of the American economy. The fact is that the seeds of destruction for the American economy were sown back in the 1960's and 1970's (at the latest). It could actually be argued that the demise of this economy was actually engineered in at its inception, but I won't even go back that far.

I understand how people have been conditioned and subjected to mind control and brainwashing to be at ease while the stability and strength of the American economy have been eradicated, and have discussed these topics at length in previous posts to this blog. People have been miseducated and undereducated so that they do not understand how an economy works. Most people have no idea that if you destroy the industrial production of a country, the economy is non-existent. In fact, the existence of the middle class is only possible when there is a large number of people who are able to earn decent livings in the industrial sector. You can perform as much online selling, services and create as many information products as you want; but if you can't feed yourself, clothe yourself or get the vital necessities of life (i.e., food, water, etc.), you and/or your country cannot (and will not) survive!

The illusion of wealth has been maintained in America, but the substance of the American economy has been exported abroad, and whatever was left of it here has been severely maligned. The heart of the American economy--the automotive industry--has been taken to the proverbial mat, and is now teetering on the brink of oblivion. Only a mind-controlled populace would permit their alleged 'government leaders' to openly destroy their source of wealth. People in the 1970's were too intelligent to allow this to happen. The PTB had to wait until they died off and their mind-controlled, miseducated children came of age. They were much more susceptible to the mental conditioning, and were much more amenable to suggestion and control from manipulation of the mass media. Whatever they hear on television, they believe, regardless of the reality of any situation. In fact, people appear to be unable to consider any topic that is not discussed in the mass media! This is the result of a fine-tuned mass media mechanism that is meshed with the educational system.

I will share an even more in-depth article on this same topic. It goes into much more depth that the first article, but paints an even more ominous picture than the first. This article goes into much more background than the first one. We are in the midst of the greatest financial calamity in history. Just understand that you will never hear this in the media until they are ready for everyone to accept the demise of the American economy. They want people to just go along with it and not revolt. To accomplish this, they have to gradually change the perception. They don't want any quick disjoints or rapid stimuli to ignite a bloody revolution (that they can't control). Gradualism is their favorite weapon. This article is long, but it is a must-read because time is rapidly running out!!! We are now in big trouble. The housing bubble is rapidly bursting, banks are bankrupt, and there is no easy path out of this quagmire (at least any easy paths that the bankers are considering). These traps are designed to catch most average people. But there is definitely a way to lessen the blow that will result from the economic tsunami that has been unleashed on America, and the world...

The Reason You Don't Like to Read or Study

I've been exposed to many people throughout life, and I must say that the vast majority of people (over 90%) seem to have a decided aversion to reading and/or studying. In fact, most do not wish to expend ANY effort on thinking, reasoning or any other similar activity. I've noticed this in people ranging from high school dropouts to Ph.D.'s, and every level in between. I've often wondered why this is the case because in my humble opinion, learning is as vital to life as breathing and drinking water. In my experience, the mind becomes stagnant, septic and highly susceptible to mind control programming and techniques when it is not often and regularly refreshed by the introduction of new thoughts, ideas, concepts and facts.

In my study of the educational system (as well as my personal experience with it), I've learned that the design of educational strategy and the method of teaching both leave a lot to be desired. The system was designed around the early 1900's, and this basic approach remains unchanged. I've found that this approach is decidedly antiquated and totally out of touch with modern reality. The goal is NOT to teach a child (or any other student, for that matter) to be able to think and/or reason with any semblance of accuracy. The goal is to create a compliant public citizen who will:

1. Preserve the status quo,
2. Recreate the status quo by their compliant behavior,
3. Never question authority,
4. Never think 'outside of the box',
5. Never do any independent thinking,
6. Never question the unspoken motives of those who design and control society,
7. Think of people who think outside of societally-defined constraints on conceptual horizons as being: weird, strange, "Conspiracy Theorists", crazy, wacko, stupid, etc.
8. Believe what they are told by mass media outlets without independent critical analysis,
9. Believe what they are taught in school without question or critical analysis,
10. Have a great aversion to learning, reading, thinking, reasoning, etc.,
11. Think that entertainment and recreation are the only worthy pursuits in life,
12. Believe that the events in history all happened by chance and not by design,
13. Look to external authority figures for guidance in virtually all matters,
14. Become child-like in their approach (i.e., the shirking of individual responsibility) to life,
15. Be easily manipulated by mass media influences.

I could go on, but I think that I've made my point. If you don't believe this, all you have to do is watch an episode of any of the current talk-shows or Judge 'Slap-em' shows to witness children in adult's bodies freely parading their ignorance on national television. If you can truly understand these shows, you can tell that America has already been destroyed from within due to the people no longer having the ability or intelligence to maintain any semblance of freedom. Freedom requires high intelligence, courage, personal responsibility, critical thinking skills, and eternal vigilance. These qualities appear to be in very short supply in this era.

Ok, I'm done with my soliquy. Now I'll share a good article that I've found in which the author speaks on a few of these points. It's a good read. Hopefully, people will find the courage and personal strength to overcome the social programming that creates an aversion to learning and study. An ignorant people are very easy to control, manipulate and subjugate. How intelligent can American society be when one of the biggest shows is "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader"? Think about it if you still have some reasoning power left inside your mind..

Soviet Expert Comes Clean

I found an amazing video on YouTube.com, and it is an eye-opener. The Soviet Defector here gives the true dire state of America. It is very sobering, but only if you aren't a victim of the mind-control/mind conditioning tactics that have been unleashed on Americans for the last 50+ years. In fact, the guy even tells us that people who have been victims of the mind conditioning can NOT learn the truth, even when given to them with undeniable, verifiable truth!!! The saddest thing is that he is correct. You only have to watch and think about the state of affairs in America, and the truth of the situation will slap you in the face. I watched this, and I sadly had to agree with his assessment of the condition of America. It's not a mystery or hidden. You might even say that it is hidden in plain view, which is always the best place to hide somebody because it is too obvious for the average person to accept. I will also post here the next portion of the video interview. In fact, I will put more links to parts of this man's opinions on what we are observing today in America. Bezmenov on the Soviet System; Bezmenov on Marxists and useful idiots; Bezmenov on KGB interest in Yoga and brainwashing. You really need to see and hear what this man says!

Latest Commentaries

I've been busy stuffing my mind with critical commercial information. Just here to recommend some more articles for you to peruse and study to your heart's content.

The first article is about the top 5 myths about America. We who live here have been living under the glory of years' passed. It's hard to notice change in the country in which you live when it occurs gradually. In this same manner, we sometimes look to our children with surprise when we finally notice that they aren't babies anymore, but are young adults. But sometimes it helps your sense of perspective when you stop and try to take an objective look at your country and how things have changed. It's easy to go along with the common notion that 'My country is #1!' But this article demonstrates that we're NOT as high on the rankings list as the propaganda and mass media circus would have us believe.

The second article discusses the circumstances that led to the 1929 Great Depression. The author, a historian by training, gives a conceptual opinion article about the similarities between the days and years before the Great Depression and the era of the 1980's and 1990's. You will notice that the period comprising the last 20 years has an eerie similarity to the period before the Great Depression. Great emphasis on spending and consumption, erosion of the value of the currency/money/spendable media, a general deterioration of the moral condition of the people and its officials, the inflation rampant in the economy, etc. I could go on, but I'll let you read what the professional historian has to say about the matter.

The third article is not long, but contains a lot of links to Google Videos that demonstrate a lot of what I've been talking about for a long time. I'm not the only person who can see this stuff happening! This is no time to be lethargically sleepwalking through life! As I read in a book before, "success is what happens when preparation and opportunity meet." To successfully navigate your life through these trying times, it will require fast, original, revolutionary thinking processes. You can't think 'outside the box' when you worship the box and the things inside of it! Expand your mind and powers of perception outside of the minature mental pasture that has been constructed for your mind to be enclosed within! You feel no need or powerful desire to learn or step outside of your perceptual prisons because of the incessant mind control techniques to which you have been subjected for virtually all of your life. The longest journey begins with the first step. Take that step now to get yourself free again.

The final article that I'll recommend to you deals with the fluoride issue. It's definitely one of my pet peeves. Even though some idiot communities have chosen to put fluoride into their drinking water systems, I can't believe that they did that! The most critical part of the article is the last paragraph. For the life of me, I can't figure out how people can actually be induced to BEG for industrial waste to be placed into their toothpaste and drinking water supplies! It is common knowledge (in the professional community) that the 'fluoride' placed in the drinking water and toothpaste is none other than fluorosilic acid that is a byproduct of phosphate fertilizer manufacture. How pharmaceutical does that sound? To those who believe that they are not the victims of mind control: how do you explain that you actually believe and support the addition of industrial waste to your drinking water and toothpaste? Would you use WD-40 to brush your teeth with as well? How about drinking water from the toilet? Think about this deeply.

Your Reasoning Power

I have an article that goes into the nuances of understanding the subtleties of understanding how reasoning works. It also speaks on the subject of how we are conditioned and manipulated into adopting certain views of reality. This is a part of uncovering the 'nuts-and-bolts' of the mind control and mental programming systems that are a ubiquitous part of our existence in modern society. It is critical that we review our paradigms and uncover the hidden assumptions and spurious foundations of our belief systems in order to analyze them and make our own decisions about how we think and the conclusions that we support in our lives. Read it well...

The March Continues

Yes, I've found more informative, relevant articles that discuss the current progression (or what can be more aptly termed a regression) in the current State of the Union/World. I hate to sound like a perpetual pessimist, and I can truly see some people growing and learning and becoming more self-actualized. But it cannot be denied that the state of affairs in government and especially the economy of the United States/America is in a death spiral.

On the one hand, we can see how the economy has been destroyed. The bottom line is that the 'Powers-That-Be' are dead set on propelling the world towards Armageddon and a world government. There is a concerted attack upon the last sizeable middle class in the world--the one in America. But it would appear that this population has already been decimated and is virtually destroyed. On the bright side, there also appears to be a move towards a new economy. This appears to me to be an expression of human ingenuity, creativity, and the triumph of the spirit over the control of tyrants and despots who seek to impose their will over society. But while the creative people who refuse to be propelled into vagrancy and slavish dependence upon those who control society fight to build and maintain wealth, the controllers of society seek to corner and subjugate them. The critical fulcrum seems to be the control of the basic necessities of life (i.e., oil/energy, water, food, air, etc.). They are manipulating these elements, if not outright poisoning them or rationing them out. They ration out the oil and manipulate the price of it, ignoring the fact that 'Peak Oil' is a media-created myth; witness the poisoning of the food supply with such things as feeding cattle rendered meat and fecal wastes, genetically manipulated crops, the adulturation of the chemical properties of most foodstuffs, etc. So it would appear to me that the final battleground (and their point of control) will be over these necessities.

Of course, this does not take into account the other instrument of control that these elements use to control society. These elements would be the total control and debauchery of the financial system through the Federal Reserve/fiat 'money' system that is used to totally corrupt the leadership of the Nation-State. The critical element in this strategy is the mind control (control/manipulation of perception) that makes it all possible. Nobody can get people to voluntarily act to their own detriment without using deception on a regular basis. I have discussed these topics in depth in other posts, so I won't totally rehash those works. But you can check them out at your leisure when you get a chance. (Some Information on Suppressed Economics, The Media Social Engineering Apparatus, Prepackaged Reality, Deprogram Yourself, Has Your Perception Been 'Socially Engineered'?
You can also check out some of my other posts, as this is just a sampling of my writings on these topics.

I just seek to talk to those who wish to see what is occurring in society, or who wish to awaken from the media-induced slumber that most people get from being exposed to the mind control apparatus. It is almost impossible for anyone to not be affected by this massive, stealthily-crafted, ubiquitous element in our lives.

Prepackaged Reality

It appears that the 'Commander-In-Chief' of the United States is either in a severe state of denial, or is so obtuse and confused that he is stuck on the idea that the US Army can salvage anything positive out of the present military conflict in Iraq. This is wishful thinking at best, and a fall-guy just blindly following orders regardless of the effects to him or to the victims of these acts at the worst. Let's be real here: there is NO WAY that the United States will be able to come close to anything in the vicinity of a victory in Iraq! The US Army over there is getting its butt handed to it on a platter. The job of the military is to take over territory and kill people, not to perform police actions, or to train people, or any of the other inane excuses that we've been given by the government or the mass media news. The result of this mindless 'strategy' is the slaughter that we are seeing daily, of both Iraqis and of US soldiers.

It is blatantly obvious to me that there is no way that this military action in Iraq is the result of idiots making idiotic decisions. That's too ridiculous to believe, considering that the United States is the most powerful military country in the world. These actions are being taken because it is a part of an agenda that is being implemented by the power behind the scenes. Think about your job and about how thick and heavy the politics get there--for mere peanuts and a bit of ego. Now think about how much politics, control, dirty dealing and other crap has to be going on when we're talking about control of the planet and all of the resources on it. We're talking trillions of dollars and control of billions of people at stake here. You'd at least have to multiply the drama on your job by at least 1,000,000 to get close to the level of intrigue and deception at work in this arena.

You're going to also have to remember that you, your family, your friends, and just about everybody that you know have been victims of thought control and behavior modification. To think otherwise is to demonstrate the effectiveness of your mental conditioning, and is the height of naiveté. Remember, it was once said that no one is more hopelessly enslaved than the slave who vehemently argues that he is free. For most people, their range of thought is virtually 100% controlled, defined and manipulated by the same people who control the mass media and the major institutions in society. Don't listen to the honorable platitudes that are painted all over your TV screen. Look at the results, and you can easily discern the true motives, operation and morals of the rulers of the world and their plans for the plebeians.

"Go to sleep, stay asleep, don't question authority, don't worry about it because we'll do all your thinking for you, trust us because we're experts with Ph.D.s and have stamps of approval on our words, etc." But if you look at the results, the society is going down the tubes with an ever-increasing accelerating rate of speed. Just about everything is dumbed-down and the majority of people don't have the energy to read much more than the funny paper and pick up the remote for their daily fix of television-turned-opiate-of-the-people. It's almost impossible to get most people to turn off the television. There are only a few million people hooked on narcotics, but there has to be at least 150 million people addicted to television. At least the people on narcotics are under no illusions that their addiction is harmful to their lives. Can you live without the television for one day? How about one week? Did that thought just send a chill down your spine? If so, you're probably a TV addict. I don't ever recall there being a Television Viewer's Anonymous. There might not be enough facilitators to accommodate even a fraction of the total number of TV addicts. Boy, would it be great to be wrong about this, but I suspect that I'm right about this one.

Deprogram Yourself

The facts tell us that most of Americans (as well as others) have been the victims of a mass mind conditioning program.  I'm not as familiar with the programs that are active in other countries, but I'm pretty sure that they work in a similar fashion.  And remember, the person who is the most enslaved is the person who doesn't think or even consider the possibility that they have been enslaved! 

Why do I speak of enslavement?  If you look at the world situation, the entire world is being maligned and preyed upon by the ruling class.  Notice the attack upon all working people of the world.  Slave wages for pay.  Now, the last large middle class, the one in America, is being systematically destroyed right before our eyes.  The union movement was revolutionary when it began.  It actually began as a way for the small, average person of modest means to fight against the powerful, authoritarian, asset-rich people who owned the large companies.  But today, these same people have figured out a way to consolidate corporate power with government power to create the conditions that have led to the demise of the middle class.  This is evident in the way that virtually all of the productive capacity of America has been exported abroad to people who are more qualified, more educated, and more eager to work for a miniscule fraction of the pay that Americans were earning.  In addition, the country has been effectively gutted of all value.  The only thing left for them to do now is to announce the state of affairs!  The evidence is glaringly obvious.  How can it be any different?  The Dow Jones Industrial Average is hovering around 11,500, while we have had record bankruptcies, record home foreclosures, an expensive (and fraudulent) war, raging unemployment, skyrocketing prices for most of the necessities of life (a symptom of runaway inflation of the currency and credit systems), a real estate bubble about to explode, gross corruption and incompetence at the highest levels of government, etc.  But the most confounding part of it is that amidst all of these developments, there is no mass uprising or call to action from the masses.  The question is,"WHY?"

Some of the reasons for this are contained within this article that expounds upon some of the issues that I've discussed above.  It may sound like a 'conspiracy theory' to the uninitiated, but this term has been utilized in order to stop people from using their critical thinking skills to figure out what is really going on.  In the mind of a conditioned victim, once they hear that term, they automatically stop thinking about the content of the issue, and they then categorically dismiss the entire matter.  If this isn't brainwashing, then there is no such thing.  It is just a label they use to deflect serious inquiry into 'sensitive topics'.  Remember, these people have been vigorously studying the processes of psychology, mass psychology, motivation, operant and behavioral conditioning, mind control, persuasion, etc., for over 60 years!  They are experts at it, and the effects are right out in the open for all to see.  But you must deprogram yourself if you are not to succumb to it.  Media is carefully presented and constructed as to create a specific image to be perceived by the target population.  WE are that target population. 

I dare you to do your own research on the matter.  Jack Nicholson once said that "You can't handle the truth!", and it would appear that he would be correct about most people.  This is why we have mass murders, genocides, 'ethnic cleansings', tyranny, police states, totalitarianism, pogroms, holocausts, concentration camps, *add your favorite human calamity here*.  History repeats itself when we don't know what has happened before.  History repeats itself when we deny reality.  History repeats itself when we are too lazy to use our minds to discern for ourselves instead of letting somebody else do our thinking for us.  History repeats itself when we are more concerned with the next episode of Deal or No Deal than we are about the state of affairs in the country and the world.  Remember, resources and success always flow from the uniformed to the informed.  If you think that you are informed because you watch the 6 o'clock evening news or CNN, you're sadly mistaken, and you will learn this in due time.

Has Your Perception Been 'Socially Engineered'?

I've been busy with a lot of research and work, but now I'm back!  Anyway, I've found a great little article that goes into depth about the propaganda with which we are bombarded from virtually all mainstream media sources.  We are literally awash in a sea of propaganda!  If you want the entire story about the workings of the establishment, you need to read this work.  It is long, but it gets right to the process that has been developed over about a 60 year period.  The author explains the process that has been crafted, studied and perfected by experts in communications, psychology, biology, etc., to give the controllers of mass media (television, in particular) the power to create and control perception.  To make a long story short, the programmers of television now have the power to guide public opinion and basically do whatever they want to do while the hapless viewers go right along with it.  You can call it social programming, mind control, consensual reality programming, population control, brainwashing, etc., but the result is the same.  The 'Powers-That-Be' have startling, virtually unfettered control over society.  And it doesn't matter whether or not you actually believe everything that they tell you is truth!  This is because they manipulate the context of all discourse on television.  If I can control the context of any topic, I can create any perception of that topic that I choose.  So the television is a very subtle, but extremely powerful tool for social engineering and control.  In fact, it is the most powerful mind control tool ever devised to date.  You really owe it to yourself to read the essay.

I found the second part of the first article above, and it continues along the same lines.  In this article, the author (a Ph.D.) shows some of the methods being used in the media for social control purposes.  The old saying is, "Familiarity breeds contempt."  This is found to be the case with information.  I remember when secret societies were seen as non-existent by the masses, and people would think you were crazy for even mentioning anything related to it.  But now, it is an 'open secret', and is even mentioned in mainstream sources.  But the emotionally charged labels (i.e., conspiracy theory) allows a mind controlled victim to effortlessly dismiss whatever follows, regardless of the validity, justification, or evidence supporting the conclusion that may follow.  It appears to me to be 'the path of least resistance'.  Unfortunately, the path of least resistance usually leads to failure. 

On another note, I've found an article that demonstrates that Bush has challenged (i.e., violated) hundreds of laws as President.  Now when the average person violates the law, they are arrested.  The only difference between a normal person breaking the law, and a public official breaking the law is that the public official has actually taken an oath to uphold the law (specifically, the Constitution, as delineated in Article 6, Section 2).  So when a public official breaks his oath of office, they are open for impeachment, and then for charges of high treason.  But in my years, I've never seen a more blatant exercise of dictatorial power by a president than those committed by the present occupant.  This is a grave danger to this country.  If the president can do what he wants, regardless of the illegality, then doesn't that make him: 1) above the law; 2) an emperor; 3) a despot; 4) and it means that THE LAWS DON'T MATTER ANYMORE.  The Constitution was written as a contract in which government officials take an oath not to trespass on the rights of the People as protected in said Constitution.  The penalty for the trespass on the People's rights is impeachment, but it appears to me that there is collusion between the other 2 branches of government (judicial and legislative) to allow Bush to be the dictator/emperor of America.  Think it could never happen in America?  Well, it already has!

If you want to do something, if you're tired of the crap, start to join the ranks of the citizens who are working to fight this corruption.  I found an attorney who was fighting the power, and has suffered a lot, but he's making a difference.  If we all do our part, we can change things.  But sitting in front of the idiotbox is not a success strategy, and will not preserve any semblance of freedom for our posterity (our kids).  Americans need to get a bit tougher.  Freedom isn't free, and it won't hurt you nearly as much today if you fight than it will when America becomes Nazi America.  I'm not exaggerating here, as you can tell if you were paying attention to the information above.  Genocide has been a standard operating procedure for most governments.  So don't think that it is an aberration. Do your own research.  I don't ask you to believe anything I've said here.  Expend a bit of energy and do your own investigation.  Wake up and get outta that Laz-e-Boy chair...

Mind Control is Alive and Well

There have been reports of mind control technologies being used against civilians as well as against military targets. This has been going on for some time, as I've seen information regarding this kind of technology for some time. It has been hidden from the general public. Most cutting-edge technology is hidden from the public. The fact is that the government is technologically advanced at least 20-50 years ahead from what is portrayed to the general public. This is done on purpose. Anybody who watches James Bond movies knows this. People should be aware of this information, especially considering the way that our society is heading in a fascist direction.
