In this topic we have all talk about ways people are control, from the media, the internet, to finance, etc. Is there ways where we can, as ATS, members avoid being on the side of the coin, i.e: be controlled by unseen forces? is there ways where we can offer resistance?
Thanks
Offer resistance?...I just wanted to deny ignorance...and instead I became alarmed, then placated, now nearly apathetic...
are you part of the conspiracy? if not...then GIVE ME THE SOLUTION friend! WHere does the resistance lie?

Ahh, think2much, in posting I'm always torn between saying too much or not enough. (snip) It wasn't just that one thread that displayed a group think mentality but everything from 'medical news' to soap oprahs, drip feeds that idea that death is better, kinder, more humane than suffering pain.

Saddly, to many, a 'medical student' holds extra 'group weight' and (snip) the 'social group' gives even more 'group weight' to that section of society.
I agree with that too.

Also the small number of posters overall, 'tells' readers the whole issue lacks importance.

Just think of all the old time respected posters who battle long and hard on 'silly' issues that never came near that thread, that sort of deafening silence is a big group saying, "Don't go there!"

....I am becoming dissillusioned with some of medical science and am thinking in some avenues they too are becoming a jobs program more intrested in repeat customers..than curing many ills which tend to befall us.... It sometimes makes me wonder as to exactly what the term professional means..or in this instance medical professional.
... It is as if we or many of us think we deserve life without work, struggle , discomforture, or even risk. Death is preferable to this..struggle. It seems as if this type of thinking is being slowly cultivated in a new generation of people. As if death is kinder than this struggle. Kinder I think is the expression you used Suzy.
Thanks for your posts,

NO, you are mistaken...I'm neither part of the conspiracy nor do I have a solution;....in seeking what the conspiracies of control are I've been alarmed...in my paranoia, I've been now plactaed, and in my atttempt to resist I have found no way yet...therefore I feel a certain apathy towards it all now...a depressing one...so unless you have the solution...
are you part of the conspiracy? if not...then GIVE ME THE SOLUTION friend! WHere does the resistance lie?

Besides, you can't be controlled by anyone unless you choose to be submissive. You always have that choice, no matter what is on the table.
