Mind Manipulation

“As for hidden mind manipulation being hooey, that is exactly what big
advertisers, major media, politicians, religious leaders and the U.S.
government want you to believe. The more you believe that, the longer
and more successfully the can secretly influence your purchasing and
political decisions. ‘We hear very little about the subject these days,’
leading brain researcher Dr. Barbara Brown admits. But that is not
because there is nothing to talk about. On the contrary: There is too
much. ‘One always suspects government intervention when techniques to
abuse mankind are suddenly banished from discussion. In any event, for
some 20 years now there has been a steadfast denial of this
extraordinary phenomenon by the experts.’
You may think you know what you know -- but thinking so may be dangerous
to your mental health. As Dick Sutphen says, ‘In the entire history of
man, no one has ever been brainwashed and realized or believed that he
had been brainwashed.’ That's the terrifying part of brainwashing: Once
it has happened to you, you will never know it.� /Is Someone Doing
Devious Things With Your Mind? by Robert McGarvey

Until recently I didn’t watch that much television. But about six months
ago we purchased a new large screen television replacing the twenty-
five inch screen we had for almost thirty years. Now I watch a little
more but I’m still critical of the content and images shown, why because
they don’t call it the boob tube for nothing. This culture uses the mass
media mainly the electronic media, radio, cable, television, motion
pictures and the Internet to program and indoctrinate us, to manipulate
our thinking our world view and reality. They are so thorough and
efficient most of us don’t even realize we are being programmed and
brainwashed. In effect the mass media are the gatekeepers of the matrix
or what the Hindus call /maya/, illusion. Most of what we think is real
may not be. As far as our government goes, for decades they have engaged
in campaigns to hoodwink, befuddle, obfuscate and deceive us. For over
fifty years the US CIA has been actively involved in an ongoing program
to infiltrate, manipulate and totally control the media. The program
called Operation Mockingbird started off with the fledgling CIA using
their ivy League upper class connections to persuade CBS, the Washington
Post and other influential media to allow them to channel stories and
information through them. Later they actually had journalists, anchors
and editors on their payrolls. Now it is fashionable for whole networks
to be cheerleaders and stenographers for the ruling elite and their
minions. Judith Miller and Robert Woodward are two prime examples that
come to mind but there are countless others. How else do we explain
white folks allowing the government to trample long cherished “freedoms�
and procedural rights in the name of national security when in fact 9-11
the supposed cause of the shift to a police state was on one level or
another a government operation?! They used the emotional shock and
trauma of 9-11, the pictures of the twin towers on fire, imploding just
like a controlled demolition to program us for fear, vengeance and war.
It’s an old trick the US government has been using since day one. If you
look at all the major wars the US has fought including the so called
“Indian wars� the wars were a result of an attack or the threat of an
attack real or imagined on US personnel, ships or citizens. Never mind
that the resulting wars, Mexican American Spanish American, WWI, WWII
and Vietnam also had imperialist or geopolitical agendas attached that
the AmeriKKKan people were not made aware of at the time war was declared.

The media is, as Robert McGarvey said in his Internet article, doing
devious things with your mind. “Particularly chilling research is
reported by Dr. Barbara Brown, who says that things as simple as the
sounds of heartbeats can radically alter our reactions to pictures and
ideas. In one experiment cited by Brown, scientists tricked subjects
into believing they were hearing their own heartbeats while viewing
photographs. They weren't. The heartbeats were prerecorded, yet as
subjects heard faster heartbeats they automatically gave high ratings to
the observed photos. Lower heart rates yielded poorer ratings.
Theoretical as that research is, the impact is very powerful. Increase
the rate of fake heartbeat sounds, and audience excitement will bolt
upwards. Lower it, and audience enthusiasm drops. It is as elementary as
that. The dimension this adds to political messages, advertising, and so
on, is alarming. ‘This begins to have frightening implications,’ admits
Brown. ‘It seems quite possible that certain types of propaganda or
techniques of persuasion will take advantage of this.’ Commonly employed
not only in revivalist/fundamentalist gatherings but in many public
meetings and throughout the media, the six-to-seven cycle vibrations as
well as the fake heartbeat can be used to hide specific information or
commands. In fact, subliminal information -- ‘subliminations’ as it's
called by professionals -- is a primary weapon in the electronic battle
for your brain and your free will.�

Programmers, producers and advertisers use sophisticated techniques of
imaging, sound, light and music to entrap us emotionally so we are
identify with their product as something that is pleasurable like the
scantily clad women in the beer commercials or the black music videos or
something that is to be avoided such as the old “ring around the collar�
or “bad breath�. We are being programmed and dummied down to the lowest
levels, the media induced /maya /is phenomenal. It is so effective we
don’t even realize we are being preyed upon, played and brainwashed.
Researchers are always working at finding new ways to stimulate and
manipulate us to do their bidding. McGarvey reveals newer forms of
electronic sensory manipulation, “Again, this propels us into a murky
area of research, but what science knows about brain physiology is that
it consists of two hemispheres. The left half is logical and factual;
the right half is creative and intuitive. Unmanipulated, all of us
bounce back and forth between right- and left- brain states of
consciousness. Some of us are more lopsided in orientation than others.
Very little else is known at this point except this: THE RIGHT-BRAIN IS
FAR LESS CRITICAL IN ITS ASSESSMENT OF NEW INFORMATION. And that opens
up a giant opportunity for manipulators. If the left-brain can be
numbed, the right-brain just may accept whatever is presented. Guess
what? That television in your living room...and the one in your
bedroom...and even the tiny one in your car all have the ability to
rapidly thrust you into a right-brain stat. That's because TV, while
appearing to be a static medium, is actually composted of millions of
flickering lights that can easily put a large percentage of the audience
into a low-grade hypnotic state. Once in that state, they are far more
receptive to suggestions and, possibly, commands. Says Dick Sutphen:
‘Recent tests by researcher Dr. Herbert Krugman showed that while
viewers were watching TV, right-brain activity outnumbered left-brain
activity by a ratio of two to one.’ A second series of experiments, by
psycho physiologist Thomas Mulholland of the Veterans Hospital in
Bedford, Massachusetts, uncovered still more eerie findings. Mulholland
wired TV-watching children to an EEG. Whenever brain-wave activity
indicated the kids had entered a low-grade hypnotic trance, the TV
automatically shut off. Since the shows were ones the kids wanted to
watch, they were motivated to remain fully conscious. They could not.
Virtually all the TVs flicked off within 30 seconds, which underlines
how powerfully television propels viewers into semiconsciousness.�

The semi trance and trance states from television watching explain why
our society is so lethargic, dummied down and passive. We are literally
being programmed into a comatose, non critical conscious state.
Advertisers, psychopaths and fascists are using ancient techniques of
group ritualistic music/ sound and light induced trance to create a
society of zombies. Whereas in ancient times or in traditional West
Africa cultures the drums and dancing were used as mediums to re-enforce
the collective values of the village or tribe, but here we are being
manipulated to buy, consume and acquiesce to someone else’s values,
world view and reality (/maya/). What can we do to protect ourselves? We
can limit the amount of programming we ingest, turn off the TV, the
radio and limit the number of Trojan Horses (media) we allow into our
homes and cars. Be more conscious and critical of the media we and our
families consume. Practice keeping your mental guard up, remain alert
and discriminating; use your conscious mind to critique and filter what
goes into your subconscious mind!!! Be more skeptical and think for
yourself. Remember just because they are out to get you and manipulate
your mind doesn’t mean you are paranoid.
