Okay. Let’s begin having a look at some modern propaganda techniques.
On two separate occasions, someone mentioned something to me about terrorism, or
the war on terror, and I responded by asking "you do know that there is
indisputable scientific evidence that proves beyond any doubt that the Twin
Towers were demolished with explosives, right?" For me, any discussion of
terrorism has to begin with the understanding of what actually happened on 9-11,
rather than what we were told to believe.
On both occasions, the person I was talking to responded by saying "I heard that
the president of Mexico saw a UFO."
The first time this happened, I shook my head and thought to myself "what the
hell is this girl thinking? Maybe the president of Mexico sniffs glue and sees
all kinds of things, but what does one thing have to do with the other? How did
she make the jump from 9-11 to Mexican UFO’s without a sentence between the two
subjects?
The second time it happened I thought to myself "Holy shit. This is a
conditioned response." Somehow, the herd has been taught to immediately make an
association with UFO’s, Bigfoot, or the ghost of Elvis whenever someone talks to
them about crimes committed by people within our government. This is incredibly
convenient for a government comprised of crooks and perverts, but how did they
accomplish this?
If you take a look at a typical "conspiracy website", you’ll see all kinds of
revelations about the 9-11 attacks, the FEMA concentration camps, and possibly
the latest information on that shadowy and elusive group known only as "The New
World Order," and you’ll also see the latest crop circle designs, the most
recent UFO photos, the image of Christ in an ice cube, a first-hand account from
the man who wrestled Bigfoot, the true location of the sunken city of Atlantis,
and all manner of non-sense designed to make any important information appear
ridiculous by this association.
The Daily Globe is one of two newspapers I’m aware of that exists for this same
purpose. This is one of the thin papers that usually sports a headline involving
800-pound Siamese twins suing each other for and against surgical separation, or
the poor man whose wife was mysteriously transformed into a hammer-head shark.
Because everyone knows that these newspapers epitomize incredulity, they’re the
perfect place to print any information that needs to be immediately discredited.
"ALIEN ABDUCTEE SAYS U.S. GOV’T BEHIND 9-11 ATTACKS" would be a probable
headline.
See how this works? You don’t have to buy the paper. Nobody does. A few copies
are prominently displayed near every supermarket checkout line, and this is what
people remember when someone tries to warn them that the government of this
nation has gotten completely out of control. Their mind makes an association
between the important information, and the ridiculous information, and they feel
confident that it’s nothing they need to worry about, but they may carry on the
silly conversation about UFO’s and stuff just to be polite. Silently they’re
convinced that because you tried to warn them about their criminal government,
you must also spend your nights on the roof searching the skies for E.T.
There’s also no shortage of TV and movie characters who openly insist that our
government is involved in all kinds of heinous activity, but every last one of
them is a lunatic. Cosmo Kramer is a recent example. He promotes alternative
medicine, doesn’t trust the government, and besides that, he’s completely off
the wall. Not the type of lunatic you would fear, but he’s definitely not
someone you would look to for reliable information, or even sane discourse. Look
closely at every TV character who questions or mistrusts the government, and you
will see that this behavior is linked with one abnormal personality after
another. The sub-conscious lesson here is that anyone who questions the
government or suggests they may be involved in any crime has an abnormal
personality, so you can quickly dismiss everything he has to say. Through
decades of repetition of these messages, you’ve been taught to ignore any
criminality on the part of anyone in our government, and anyone who might make
such an accusation. While you were being so trained, you were robbed of your
wealth and freedom.
There are people commonly referred to as "conspiracy theorists". In reality,
absolutely no one hangs around theorizing about conspiracies, but this label is
applied to anyone who feels a civic duty to warn other Americans of criminal
activity within their government. The "conspiracy theorist" is a character that
only exists on television and in movies, and this character, who is always a
lunatic, was created for you to make an association with when someone tries to
warn you about government crimes. The result is that when someone tries to
explain to you that your own government is doing all it can to either kill or
enslave you, he may as well be crying to you about his wife turning into a shark
during his most recent UFO abduction, regardless of any proof he has.
For most Americans, the people on TV have replaced their normal human society,
and the exchange of ideas they would have once had with neighbors and others in
their community is now fed to them via the almighty tube. They are fed two sides
of a debate, allowed to choose between them, and this choice allows them to feel
a bond with other people of one opinion or the other, and lets them feel like
they’re wise enough to have an opinion in the matter, and free enough to express
it. The reality here is that neither side of the debate ever contains the entire
truth of the matter, but just enough information, or misinformation, to make
them feel they’re informed, and give them something to enter a futile debate
with, if they did actually talk to their neighbor. Political correctness
silenced the rest of them by teaching a reluctance to saying or hearing anything
controversial or possibly disturbing.
What Americans are shown on TV are allegedly the products of various independent
broadcasting companies who compete for viewers who will supposedly watch the
commercial messages that are injected into the entertainment, but if this is the
case, why the incredible similarity between the allegedly competing companies?
Wouldn’t you think that eventually one network or Hollywood studio might
experiment with a sane and respectable character who doesn’t trust the
government?
Are there any other typified characters that exist on all networks? As it
happens, there are many. Just to name a few; every father is an idiot, as is
every private citizen who owns a firearm, every mother is an over-worked and
under-appreciated slave, everyone who works for the government is a hero who
endlessly risks his life for your protection, and everyone who sells drugs is
black or hispanic. Every Arab is a screaming madman, and every Jew is kind,
gentle and wise. Every homosexual is moral, kind, and intelligent, and everyone
who lives in a rural area of the country is an idiot. I don’t need to go on. You
can probably name a few of your own, but the important point here is that the
same personality traits transcend all characters on all networks. This is
obviously no accident.
If we can see common themes and messages that are being foisted upon the public
by all networks, it proves that either there is no real competition between them
and they all share a common political goal, or that all of their programing is
being influenced or dictated by an outside entity, or both. Nothing else can
explain the incredible similarity of stereotyped personality traits in all these
fictional characters.
Now the next logical step would be to recognize and list as many of these common
themes as possible, and see if they all serve a particular political agenda.
Just by skimming the surface we see an effort to thwart private gun ownership,
discourage masculinity, encourage homosexuality, promote women to "head of
household" status, and foster hatred against all Arabs. Then there are the
constant attacks on that "antiquated document" known as the Bill of Rights,
which permeate every episode of "Law and Order" and "CSI" ** (if not for that
silly forth amendment, all those mangled children would be alive, kind of
thing).
Whose interests does this propaganda serve? Who benefits by trying to shape
public opinion in this direction? Certainly not the TV viewer, because as well
see in the next episode of our action-packed adventure through main-stream media
propaganda, the TV viewer’s been taught to work against his own self-interests.

motel for six months, otherwise I haven’t allowed the evil device into my home
for more than 25 years.
