America is currently being held spellbound by modern forms of mind control. The mind control includes NLP(neuro linguistic programming), among many other things. They manipulate most of America(i live here i dont know about the rest of the world) through EGO using the corporate culture model. They manipulate people through fear and they use our connection and fundamental human need for community as a weapon against us. Its so bad that i cant carry a conversation on with the average human anymore because a) they are so topical, b) they are so brainwashed and lack serious insight and depth to their personality. All of these issues result from the mind control of the television, the programming being done to our kids in the school systems including the colleges, the programming thats happening to adults in the corporate paradigm of being forced to fit in or be ostracized.

This is just the tip of the iceberg but these are some of the most serious issues we face in humanity right now. These are the tools being used against us to keep us separate and to prevent social cohesion. We require social cohesion to move together into a better paradigm. These ideas and methods of control keep us seperate and focus'd on ourselves rather then functioning together as a community. Im not talking socialism im talking about basic compassion for one another and agreeing to agree idealistically but realizing we need to work together to keep everyone fed, housed, and safe.

Lets work together people.

Just like the television most video games are need to have....so they tell me. One must run out and purchase a game so they can go back to their fantasy world. The same goes for these mobile computing devices that everyone needs....like a hole in the head. I got to spend 500 a year to keep up with the modern tech...because everyone else has it.


Lets take cable TV for instance. You have to pay your provider for programming so you can sit and watch commercials every ten or so minutes....telling you what you need to buy. Its brainwashing to the max.

Modern people need interconnection....but they need it at a personal level as well. That is where all this modern tech comes into play.
All designed to desensitize us from the real world. To make people care about them selves first. In the name of corporate profit margins.

AHHH...i need to get angry birds because i want to be cool. I need that new energy drink, its got more up than monster.

Skew the lines of reality enough and people cant tell needs from desires.

I agree.

This is why everyone is kept at a topical level of thinking.

A sick society on the brink. Its sad that America has gotten so stupefied by the distractions.
I doubt the majority would notice if the pulled the carpet out from under us.

I dont think its happened yet. Its like the tablecloth trick.
You got to do it quick so all the fragile glass dont move.
They are still in the distraction phase.

When it does happen the few that are awake are going to shout,
the rest will call shenanigans on the loud mouths.

If that makes sense outside of my head?

Its gotta be close. Sometimes i wish more people were waking up but the sad truth is that they arent. These ideas are becoming popular thought but noone is acting on them.

Yes, the conspiracy side is becoming more noticed. Mostly due to boards like ATS.

But people are so blinded that we are all just nuts.


Just like big pharma....they are here to help. HAAAAA
Here is a drug for your water retention......but doc now im peeing all the time. I cant hold it.
Ohhh here is an anti diuretic...it will help you hold it.


BUT doctors take an oath to do no harm...so they must be pure spirits out to help.

NOPE, just drug pushers for big pharma. The FDA would never give us things we dont need for a profit would they.

OQ, most people *want* to stay a blissfully ignorant part of the Matrix.... The path can no longer be changed.

There are a few of us minor luddites still out there. I'm ok with tech, but the only cable I have is for the interwebz. I bought a used XBox (w/5 games) from a friend who had picked up the latest one. Paid $100.00 for it with the intention of keeping my ass in the house rather than getting bored and going out...at which point I will spend money on gas, food, drink, etc. I think I've played it all of five times, maybe more, but not much. I have to relearn the controls everytime I turn it on...LOL. So much for it keeping me entertained at home and saving money

I do a crapload of reading though, from actual books, not a tablet or pad but of course I do read alot on the interwebz. But you are right. From my observations of society around me, we are screwed.

Were only in as deep as the last person awake will allow.

If everyone just throws in the towel, then we really are screwed.

I've given up trying to talk to people about the things i read and see. I say "America is in serious trouble", i get answers like, "It doesn't affect me" or "That's nonsense, i don't believe that..."

Nobody cares. It's really sad.

And who put the government in power? Who sits by nonchalantly while these people unilaterally take away all your freedoms?

I look at it as being stuck in a car that is spinning out of control toward a brick wall. I can't stop it. I can't do anything about it. The best I can do is brace myself for what will inevitably be a painful impact and do my best to position myself to survive it.

You'd be smart to do the same.

I would be smart to kiss my a$$ goodby as I'm going to die some day.

I just cant watch as freedom after freedom get striped away.

Being told how many bullets i can have in my gun.

Paying my taxes at the tune of some 43% to be told multi billion dollar corporations,

get huge reductions or no taxes like Facebook.

But I'm supposed to sit by with my hands on my a$$ and be a team player?

NOT

I think a lot of people get a generalized sense now and then that something isn't quite right, but I think they dismiss it. Partly, because along with that sense of wrongness, comes the sense that this wrongness can't be overcome and partly because acknowledging that there was something tangible behind that sense would require something of them they don't want to give or give up.

I think its a coping mechanism, but it's certainly not the stuff heros are made of.
