It isn't just TV and commercialism. There are many forms of brainwashing going on in our society. In the United States, all large institutions work to indoctrinate their members. Although, some are more effective than others, and the "ethics" of different institutions, vary.

Starting at an early age, of course there are churches and schools. However, the influence of things like summer camps should not be discounted. They bring together kids, isolating them from their parents, where various sorts of pressure can be exorted to train those kids to conform to the group, whatever its values.

In colleges, fraternities have their initiation rituals. They make their initiates undergo various rituals, where they are indoctrinated into the group. The same applies to the military, and other government organizations.

Once you've brainwashed the parents, it only becomes all that much easier to brainwash the children. What do you think masochistic spanking is about? However, they don't trust the parents to brainwash their own children.

Do you ever really think about how much drug their is? How much of that is keeping people from fighting the system? Teachers are trained to use the most advanced known psychological techniques to teach children to behave. Of course, despite all this, it doesn't always work perfectly.

There also have been experiments, with more sophisticated electronic brain control mechanisms. However, those are complicated to use, and other ways have been found much easier to use. Certain frequencies sound waves, can have certain effects on people, but that is mostly for croud control. Although, music is much more powerful, and can motivate people to do almost anything.

Since World War II, ever more sophisticated mind control mechanisms have been used on Americans. It has been documented, that the fraternity brain washing rituals, were mostly started by ex-soldiers, who learned them from the training for World War II.

I haven't studied the history all that well, but fighting wars is always easier when you can get people to obey you. It is easy to see that facism was quite effective at gaining obedience. For noble or inoble reasons, the U.S. government decided they needed to control the economy, and they ended up going further with propoganda, and even mind control.

Once you get started with a system of mass mind control and propoganda, it is very hard for it to just stop. The people, who can manipulate people, get caught up in their work. The manipulated become manipulaters of still more people, and the cycle worsens I think it has been happening pretty much continuously since that time.

At this point, I think will continue and continue, as it continues growing in sophistication. I don't think these kind of things will just stop, or start to shrink on their own. Most probably, it just continues until it gets so big, that the whole system collapses, although I think we are quite a ways from there, still.

HAHAHAAHA What a load.
My daughter is four, the war started before her 2nd birthday. Bush has been known to her, since that time as "The evil man"....
I teach her "Not to believe the hype", when I see her mesmerized by television or print ads.
How many parents tell their kids the truth? Not many. First theres a Santa Claus, then an easter bunny, then jesus, then the boogey man, then those pesky terrorists who hate our freedoms....

When Possible I hit the mute button, thats half the battle, and more when possible avoid commercial television and anything with "pro-cop, pro special ops, pro drug war, pro spying, or pro religion" messages. Keep the brain washing to a minimum.

12 more years, and my kid is going to be a voter registration card holding free minded hell raiser.



Get your kid on the right path today, teach them the truth!!!



i took out the finer points of what u said. "the evil man". I dont care how evil he is, a 4 year old is to young to have a definite opinion. You only think she has free thinking because youve taught her the presumably correct assumptions u came up with . the problem is, she MEMORIZED them.

Further more you admit to engaging in active censorship. How is that free-thinking? I agree that corps are in it for the profit, there is no legal justification for iraq, and the drug war is a thinly veiled excuse for police militarization; so dont get me wrong.

my little cousin is the same way, 8 years old. to young to know politics, but dont mention "SCARRY KERRY" around her evil little butt.

The United States is 49th in the world in literacy (the New York Times, Dec. 12, 2004).

The United States ranked 28th out of 40 countries in mathematical literacy (NYT, Dec. 12, 2004).


"The International Adult Literacy Survey...found that Americans with less than nine years of education 'score worse than virtually all of the other countries'" (Jeremy Rifkin's superbly documented book The European Dream: How Europe's Vision of the Future Is Quietly Eclipsing the American Dream, p.78


"The European Union leads the U.S. in...the number of science and engineering graduates; public research and development (R&D) expenditures; and new capital raised" (The European Dream, p.70).

"Europe surpassed the United States in the mid-1990s as the largest producer of scientific literature" (The European Dream, p.70).

Nevertheless, Congress cut funds to the National Science Foundation. The agency will issue 1,000 fewer research grants this year (NYT, Dec. 21, 2004).

Foreign applications to U.S. grad schools declined 28 percent last year. Foreign student enrollment on all levels fell for the first time in three decades, but increased greatly in Europe and China. Last year Chinese grad-school graduates in the U.S. dropped 56 percent, Indians 51 percent, South Koreans 28 percent (NYT, Dec. 21, 2004). We're not the place to be anymore.



That is why you fail

I guess I don't understand your point.... The U.S. is has decreased funding for some projects and not as many people from other countries are coming to the U.S. to get their higher education.... so "THAT IS WHY YOU FAIL"? Fail at what? The U.S. economy has sucked, especially since 9/11, and education and science funding has taken a big hit, I agree. However, look at the big picture. The U.S. is not failing in higher education.

The U.S. is failing in some respects of education... we have large segments of the population who are barely able to finish grade school and can hardly read. This is a problem, but it's not the same problem that you are talking about. It has nothing to do with any kind of systematic "brainwashing" either.

I'd like you to elaborate further on your comment. Thanks.
