Mind Control and Free Will

[Bigshadow]

There's more to that point too and it's that the proletariat are so conditioned / controlled that it's that same herd that can reign in the dissenters themselves.

Oh yes, this tactic is to condition people to respond in a certain way when they hear key words and phrases or see certain images (much like the 2 minutes of hate in George Orwell's book 1984 where they went into the room when told and would lash out at the image on the screen for two minutes. They hated that image, but didn't know why, just because they were told to). This is a reaction with little to no conscious thought, much like how Pavlov's dog would salivate when he heard the bell. This keeps the masses from *thinking* about the subject in question and at the same time placing peer pressure on the dissenters to join the ranks.

Very good points also mirrored in some of the psychological writings posted above.

Funny, I mentioned the quote below to someone on the board recently but it seems to apply here when thinking of issues such as religious tolerence, abortion, animal testing and the myriad other societal issues that demand levels of uniform thinking to maintain our happy status-quo... It kind of shows that not only are we -as you say- kept from thinking independently but are like Pavlov's drooling dog, continually conditioned by stimulus-response approaches omnipotent in our media, in our workplaces and in our daily conversations:

Test the average man by asking him to listen to a simple sentence which contains one word with associations to excite his prejudices, fears or passions -- he will fail to understand what you have said and reply by expressing his emotional reaction to the critical word.

First, let me adjust my tin foil beanie.

Apparently, the Russians were carrying on their own experiments in mind control. They developed a system, the Psychotronic Influence System, which is reputedly capable of implanting suggestions against a persons will. The system reputedly operates with keywords that "switch a person on" when spoken or activated in some way.

See these references that detail pyschotronic weaponry...

Apparently, this is a US patent for a device the remotely monitors and alters brain waves.

Apparatus for and method of sensing brain waves at a position remote from a subject whereby electromagnetic signals of different frequencies are simultaneously transmitted to the brain of the subject in which the signals interfere with one another to yield a waveform which is modulated by the subject's brain waves. The interference waveform which is representative of the brain wave activity is re-transmitted by the brain to a receiver where it is demodulated and amplified. The demodulated waveform is then displayed for visual viewing and routed to a computer for further processing and analysis. The demodulated waveform also can be used to produce a compensating signal which is transmitted back to the brain to effect a desired change in electrical activity therein.

Here is some stuff on the Frey Effect

The microwave auditory effect, also known as the microwave hearing effect or the Frey effect, consists of audible clicks induced by pulsed/modulated microwave frequencies that are generated directly inside the human head without the need of any receiving electronic device. The effect was first reported by persons working in the vicinity of radar transponders during World War II. These induced sounds are not audible to other nearby people. The microwave auditory effect was later discovered to be inducible with shorter-wavelength portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. During the Cold War era, the American neuroscientist Allan H. Frey studied this phenomenon and was the first to publish (1961) information on the nature of the microwave auditory effect; this effect is therefore also known as the Frey effect.

Research by NASA in the 1970s showed that this effect occurs as a result of thermal expansion of parts of the human ear around the cochlea, even at low power density. Later, signal modulation was found to produce sounds or words that appeared to originate intracranially. It was studied for its possible use in communications but has not been developed due to the possible hazardous biological effects of microwave radiation. Similar research conducted in the USSR studied its use in non-lethal weaponry.

What do you think of all this? I wonder if this is where the whole "tin foil" idiom originates?

I've read the US DOD is working on less than lethal weapons utilizing the same priciples.

Hello, We all can be "brain wash"..even this articles listed. Can make you believe in them as written facts.

One person (a leader) can control /brain wash a nation.....this happens all the time..people believe in that person and will do whatever is said!

People are like sheep....being lead.

Reglion is the most well known for brain washing. Is this good or bad?

Purpose of the ears...allows water to flush brains...does work at times.. "Can you hear me now"? ....cingular...cingular..hundreds of people will be following you....being brain wash here...OOP's I own a cingular phone plan...Awaaaa! ...Aloha

agreed. it seems that the more frightening scenario is simply convincing people to want what you want them to want.

example: would the america of the 80s put up with the patriot act or the tsa?

would the america of the 90s accept the treatment of prisoners at guatanamo bay?

but a quick twist of our media handlers and we're justifying it and accepting it...not because we've been brainwashed, but because we've been convinced.

and that gives me the willies.

Hell any advertisment on tv or raido is a form of mind control.
Most news programs could be a form of mind control depending on how the news is presented and what is said and not said.
