about what you are really upset about in the world today it could be war taxes the government encroachments on our privacy or whatever you'll waste time hacking at the branches and not the root of the problem where you really want is your freedom and independence and to be left alone the fundamental reason why any formalized group effort like occupy wall street or the tea party will fail is that it is a collective effort against a collective problem one of the same consciousness you cannot beg for power you need to be independent of power sending good people in to reform a state is like sending virgins in to reform a whorehouse anonymous the game is rigged and nothing will change with elections protest editorials occupy movements or tea to control them if you want to become a real threat to the system act independently of the system this is essentially what a responsible citizen must do to or oppressive government slamming your door at your parents house is the same as a million man march you think it is a show of power but those that are in charge think it's a cute but meaningless exertion of power and do not fear it in the least at the march all they want so long as they pay their taxes alexander haig you must physically financially politically intellectually emotionally and even spiritually remove yourself from their control the most potent weapon of the oppressor is the mind of the o pressed steven biko you cannot change the world to make yourself happy or free you must change yourself to make the world happy and free be the change that you wish to see in the world is long as humanity believes that they can change the world to make themselves happy or free we will continue to fall into th trap over and over again generation after generation it is insanity to think that you can change the world to make yourself happy or free you can't do it on a personal level and you certainly cannot do it on a national or global level think about your own family you share the same race religion education and so on yet there is constant disagreement i can even control my three year old son so what makes us think that we can somehow change the world was seven billion people with different outlooks and motives on life no matter what you try to do to affect change in the world you never really run across others who do not share your same vision and because they come from different experiences education and awareness as you are they will naturally become opposite force they will naturally push against any effort you have and this ultimately devolves into a middle of the road solution that leaves no real change a lot of wasted time energy and money this also gives power to the parasitical middle men that manipulate both sides to their advantage true independence can only come from within we knew this on some level when we were teenagers but we fell for what the world and our masters offered us freedom college degrees big houses fast cars consumer products shallow relationships or grues this inevitably leads to debt frustration and an empty hole in our lives which we usually do not fully realize until we're way past our prime wasting the best part of our life the only thing in the world that you really can't control is you so stop trying to change others be the change that you want to be in the world it is very important to know that we also have no right to enforce our version of freedom and happiness and others no matter how much you feel you are right people must come to their own decisions on their own terms and timetable when we focus our time energy and money and working on our own personal freedom we will not only see real effective change we will show the way for millions of others to follow when you are truly free you'll be strong happy and dependently powerful your power does not come at the expense of others or control of others and therefore cannot be stopped true generational wealth is when you can learn how to become totally free pass that freedom on to others judge a man by his questions rather than his answers voltaire the point completely not important to get children to read children want to read are going to read kids want to learn to read are going to learn to read much more important to teach children to question what they read children should be taught to question everything every day here children should be taught to question authority parents never teach their children to question authority because parents are authority figures themselves and i want to undermine their own bullshit inside the house so kids have to be warned that there's bullshit common down the road the biggest thing you do over a good tell about life in this country is about it's about a whole lot of bullshit that needs to be detected and avoided when you are aware you can prepare our societal structure is broken the industrial revolution took the father of the house the consumer revolution took the mother out of the house it now takes two or three incomes to support a family now who is left to shape the minds of our children who benefits from this cui bono our society is mass producing pathological narcissism on a massive scale fascination with fame and celebrity fear of competition the inability to suspend alif shallowness and transitory quality of personal relationships who benefits from this collective power does we know deep down that we are not getting ahead we are presented with saviors who never change the system or solve the problems our future is not certain my generation will be the first american generation to not live as well as the previous generation this unfortunately has been designed to happen this way we have been programmed all of our lives to shut out personal choices in conformist society this could come in the form of  authority schools rules social pressure or the government laws and regulations by the time we are adults we have a self regulating prison of our mind we recognize the symptoms self doubt low self esteem lack of motivation  of original ideas we think we know the cause of these problems parents education system the media the boss successor but in reality they are just victims of the same dynamic society wants week depended people because it gives power to those who run this world if people were truly free and independent they would have no need for any of the elite or collective thought but the typical americans program through society to obey authority follow the rules and don't ask questions we are to conform we are programmed to go into debt with credit cards student loans mortgage or car payments the lower classes program to either depend on the government or work for the government to eat fast foods to make them obese and diabetic they see the military as a way out girls are programmed to get pregnant early politics is seen as a waste of time in their lives are filled with distractions the middle class is programmed to prepare for corporate jobs to get into debt to have that american dream program to see objects of status and debt as a means to get that status they excel at regurgitating information for academic achievement and talking points for financial or political intelligence corporate life breaks up the local support systems people have driving a wedge between them and their roots the system is perfectly designed for us to be just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork but not smart enough to ask if this is really the best system for us fro the middle children of history man no purpose of place we have no great war no great depression education is very dangerous every educated person is a future enemy hermann goering making sure that you become free and independent does not serve the elites or anybody else's interest so don't expect it if you want it you have got to fight for it all children start out naturally curious and love to learn when they are sent to school instead of learning it is a repeated process of memorizing and regurgitating information the better you are at regurgitating this information the better you will do in the school system the real education is obeying authority we are taught to ask permission we are taught not to think outside the box we are taught multiculturalism drugs sex and death education we are taught to memorize and regurgitate information input output process not unlike a computer or a slave we are taught to respond to a bell just like a factory floor we are taught to keep her head down and just make it through the day we are taught to lower our expectations and that is just school outside of school our communication is destroyed as people literally lose the ability to speak and relate to one another our financial education is one of slaves encouraging debt our political system is one of false choices our media is normal behavior we are not taught to develop critical thinking we are not taught about debt based money and the principles that our founding fathers fought for we are not taught to cooperate and view each others as a team with individual talents and gifts we are not taught to question authority or even the facts demanded of us we are indoctrinated not educated indoctrinated like little sleeze the secret of american schooling is that it does not teach the way children learn nor is it supposed to schools were conceived to serve the economy and the social order rather than the kids in the families that is why it's compulsory as a consequence the school cannot help anybody grow up because its prime directive is to retard maturity it does it by teaching that everything is difficult that other people run our lives that our neighbors are untrustworthy and even dangerous school is the first impression children get of society because first impressions are often the most decisive ones school imprints kids with fear suspicion of hundred there and certain addictions for life in ambushes natural intuition faith and love of adventure wiping these out in favor of gospel of rational procedure and rational management between one thousand no six in one nine hundred twenty a handful of world famous industrialists in finance years together in their own private foundations and picked university administrators house politicians and spent more attention and more money towards for schooling than the national government did andrew carnegie and johnny rockefeller spent more money than the government did between one thousand nine hundred one hundred twenty on education the system of modern schooling was constructed outside of the public eye and outside the public's representatives in our dreams people yield themselves with perfect us philippi to our molding hands the present education conventions of intellectual and character education fade from their minds and then hampered by tradition we work our own good will upon a great phone response of folk we shall not try to make these people or any of their children into philosophers or men of science we have not to raise up them as authors educators poets or men of letters we shall not search for great artists painters musicians nor lawyers doctors preachers politicians statesman all of whom we have ample supply of the task is simple we will organize the children and teach them in a perfect way the things their fathers and mothers are doing in an imperfect way john d rockefeller the aim of public education is not to fill the young of the species with knowledge and awaken their intelligence nothing could be further from the truth the aim is simply to reduce as many individuals as possible to the same safe level to breed in train standardised citizenry to put down dissidents originality that is the aim of the united states h l mencken this lowest common denominator citizen is most useful in a corporate military or a welfare state corporations governments militaries do not deal with dissent effectively so it is in their best interest not to have participants that question any when i joined the marine corps they didn't beat around the bush about this idea in boot camp they wanted instant and willing obedience to orders everywhere else in your life you will learn the same lesson only more subtly and this is why military men are most sought for corporate jobs education should aim at destroying free will so that after peoples left school they shall be incapable throughout the rest of their lives of thinking and acting otherwise than their school masters would have wished for train russell our education system is centered on an input output process of information our success or failure depends on our fish and see of taking what the teacher tells us and then regurgitating that same information onto an exam those that are able to blindly regurgitate information the best are rewarded with higher grades they are told that they are smart when in fact they are just thoroughly indoctrinated this input output process is no different than a computer or what a slave does you give it a command and it just does it without question this system was carefully created to mold us into what we are today the masses blindly flow through this education system and naturally fade into centralised systems that want good little obedient workers who take orders without question we all know that person who is very smart or indoct excels in a corporation a military or government job and yet they lack any real street smarts to see what's really going on in their lives when you understand that their mind only functions on what they are told it becomes clear to you that there are only able to be successful in a centralized system where taking orders is a way of life i think therefore i am it is a classical philosophical statement on human consciousness and existence but what about the people who do not really think do they really exist this input output mindset is re enforced outside of school and the career world our society is all about what is popular from early on in our lives we are pressured into doing what's popular not what's best for you this is a way a collective gets individuals to sacrifice what is unique and special about themselves to become the lowest common denominator in a group that really doesn't care about you at all the most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is born in the mind constantly you must confine itself to a few points and repeated to them over and over again josef goebbels when you look at our news or political debate it is driven by talking points where there are people with such accuracy it's scary talk show host conan o'brien maybe about the push to gobble up on late night television conan o'brien may be able to push the envelope on late night television conan o'brien maybe about the push the envelope all of this in coming up brian may be about to push the envelope on the late night television carnival brian may be about to push the envelope on the late night television indoctrinated and to dissuade the logical an independent thinker from even entering the debate through this process the collective is intellectually safe from any challenge to its power your thoughts serve to free you or simply to make you freely serve these talking points are created by people who do think about how to control societies they we this input output slave thought into ahead gelling dialectic that they control they sensually have a society that pictures over issues that have no real importance on the real power of the world they use hot button emotional issues like abortion or gays in the military to divide and conquer us while they laugh all the way to the bank march us off to the war and destroy our constitution what about those of us who did not do well in this indoctrination environment i was one of those kids that did not do very well in school i knew from a very early age that what was being pumped into my head was not was going to make me a better person i knew that the most successful people that i knew did not have jobs or went along with the crowd it or school teaches us to get jobs and do what we were told i knew that our school system wanted me to learn about sex drugs death multiculturalism much more than issues that would have driven my success like economics history and psychology they wanted me to drone on senseless and boring topics instead of inspiring me to a higher better self through art music and philosophy what they were really teaching me was to keep my head down and deal with their system these days those that are restless in this indoctrination environment run the risk of being drugged this is the result of the indoctrination of humanity into the same consciousness of those that own and control our world this is the h t v two hypersonic bomb that can travel at twenty times the speed of sound and strike anywhere in the world in under an hour with the impact of a nuclear bomb without the fallout each of these bombs cost sixty nine million dollars and is designed like all other weapons to control others after it is used it leaves us poor other people dead and more power and profit to those that made it there are only two kinds of people in this world those that want to be left alone and those that won't leave you alone humanity has spent so much time on how to manipulate the world and relatively no time asking why would have humanity been vastly better off if we did not tax steal inflate our economic activities to pay for a trillion dollar military empire to dominate the world's resources to create unlimited debt and power for the elite that troll our world or should we have just left the world alone free to pursue whatever desires they wanted to do and just took care of ourselves well if you're indoctrinated into the belief that you have the right to inflict your view of the world on to others then this is the weapon for you you now have the ability to spread death and death faster than anybody else in the world you just better hope one day that somebody doesn't think that they have the same right to inflict their version of the world on you we have a world today that has awesome technical knowledge to be able to develop a sixty nine million dollar hypersonic autonomous kamikaze bombs that can strike anywhere in the world within minutes and yet we have a society that cannot become conscious to the fact that there are slaves living depressing malnourished and narcissistic little lives some would say that we need this indoctrination to make the world work and that squatting on a mushroom thinking about man's relationship to the universe will never get us to the moon well who cares if we can technically watch a three d eighty inch high definition t v instantly downloading the latest court action show dressed in a proud of space suit or driving a mercedes moonbuggy on the moon on your deathbed will you be thinking about all the technical things that you were able to do or the idealistic relationships and passions you did not pursue i can tell you what steve jobs was for he wished he could have gotten to know his kids better i never let schooling get in the way of my education mark twain and besides the fact most of the great inventions that improve our quality of life were created by men that had none of this indoctrination they were free thinkers and thinkers who loved learning in a non formalized environment they pursued their god given talents and desires for the betterment of others jonas salk cured polio by following his passions and talents and then he gave away the vaccine to the world without patent he became the change in the world he wanted to see how there are no rules here we're trying to accomplish something thomas edison and what are we really technically teaching kids today are we producing the next edison ford or tesla or are we producing kids that will someday be held at war crimes tribunals saying that they were just technically fall only mortars the other problem with this technical line of thinking is that it gives humans the arrogant view that they can manipulate nature and ultimately others into our own personal utopia never seeing the fact that every action has an equal and opposite reaction kenyan economics is of this technical line of thought and that has been drilled into our heads that we can manipulate the world by just pulling enough economic levers all the technical progress we have made in war communication finance government and consumer gadgets are worthless if those lives that are building consuming and dying for these goods are sold us creatures who do not think for themselves and what is the result of all this technical thinkers manipulating our world we have the world to blow with massive financial fraud that will technically end the world as we know it and for what do we technically live better than we did fifty years ago and by what measure happiness obesity education divorce we need the ability to ask why we do things and not how to technically do things maybe then we can ask why we should even build a hypersonic bomb does it make the world better who does it benefit how would these resources be better used and do we even have the right to take from some to destroy others without a greater sense of life behind our technical actions we will continue this painful existence on earth you cannot change the outside world to become free or happy you must change yourself to become free and happy we are constantly told what to think and not how to think there is a very easy way out of this slave mentality we have been taught and it is called logic you might have heard of something called a classical education a classical education is created on the firm foundation of the trivium grammar logic and rhetoric grammar is the observation of symbols or situations logic is using reason to understand what is the most likely outcome and how to best position yourself for that outcome rhetoric is the ability to relate to others what you observed how you logically thought about it and to be able to defend your conclusions to others questioning your ideas the most dangerous man to any government is a man who is able to think things out for himself without regard to prevailing superstitions or taboos h l mencken this trivium was the basis for all other education if you were able to process information through the trivium you could learn anything and more importantly you would love learning did you ever wonder why our founding fathers were able to speak multiple languages and to excel in vastly different areas like architecture and philosophy i because they had a strong foundation in the trivium since these men love learning they did not ever stop learning they continued to read and study up until their final days this classical education led to a fertile ground of educational thought that gave rise to the american society that thr the shackles of a collectivist tyranny for the simple principle of life liberty and the pursuit of happiness children are innately curious in the use or logic to understand how the world works the reason why kids are constantly into everything is that they're learning how things work over time they learn that if they drop a glass it will break if you ever wonder why are kids depressed at school and this probably because they know that they're being indoctrinated into being a slave and on some level they know it if you wonder why your kids don't like you it's not because they don't really like you they just don't want to end up like you dead end job poor relationships poor money situation in our society we are taught to hate education and avoid it after school our society makes it really easy to be ignorant and even subsidize the behavior what luck for rulers that men do not logically thing take it off hitler this three step process is vastly different from the input output process of our current education system that key step of logical thought is totally devoid in our educational system if we were taught logic we would cause all sorts of problems for a system that relies on blind obedience to orders when i was in the marine corps they were very bold in their indoctrination process of me they wanted instant and willing obedience to orders but our schools our corporations and governments can't be so bold so they just want you to be a quote unquote team player between stimulus and response there is a space and that space is your freedom victor frankl all this logical thought is bad for collectivist system it is the key to happiness and success for an individual using logic al the individual to rationally in an emotionally process what is being presented to them there they can determine what is being presented to them if it's good for them and how best to react to this new idea logic breaks the slave mentality of do what you're told when we have logic we are able to question what we are told and more importantly reject those who are shown to be liars if we blindly accept everything we are told we are led around by the nose by people who do think for themselves when we think for ourselves we can get ahead of the curve and become independent of a world gone mad if you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it people eventually come to believe it a lie can be maintained only for such a time that the state can shield the people from the political economic or military consequences of the lie thus it becomes vitally important for the state to use all of its powers to repress dissent for the truth is a mortal enemy of the lie and thus by extension truth is the greatest enemy of the state joseph goebbels using logic allows you to respond on an intellectual level and not an animalistic emotional level every good marketeer knows that the most powerful motivator to use is irrational fear is what drives the impulse buy every sale derives off of irrational fear of not being fashionable or having the latest and greatest gadget or that missing out on a deal or that they're going to run out i just would dictate that they're blowing out the old because a new product which is probably better and cheaper is coming out and they can't afford to keep the older model around or that they're never really going around because they're in the business of mass producing things marketing is simply the manipulation of people for the profits and power of others by the way if anyone here is in advertising or marketing kill yourself seriously though if you are do you know really there's no rationalization for what you do and you are satan's little helpers ok tell yourself seriously you're the ruler of all things good seriously this is not  whenever you know what i mean i know what all the marketing people are thinking right now you know what bill's doing he's going for that and marketing dollar that's a good market he's very smart man i'm not doing that you fucking evil scumbags all you know what bill's doing now he's going for the righteous indignation dollar that's a big dollar a lot of people are feeling that diggnation we've done research huge market he's doing a good thing god damn it i'm not doing that you scumbags with putting a goddamn dollar shawn on every fucking thing on this planet who the anchor dollar huge huge in times of recession giant market bill's very bright to do that and i'm just caught in a fucking web but lou the tracks dollar big dollar you dollars good market look at our research we see that many people feel trapped complete play them in separate them into the trap the dollar brainwashing critical thinking is freedom actually soft problems created by sound bite politics with more sound bites we need logic to understand and to process the logical outcomes of these proposals instead we get operation mockingbird take politics  talking points are crafted and then repeated throughout our media those that are most skilled at repeating those points are considered the most intelligent i thought that it was a matter of real concern that  story is intended to serve a national purpose abroad came home and were circulated here and believed here because this would mean that the thief could manipulate the news in the united states by channeling us through some foreign country and we're looking at that very carefully do you have any people being paid by the cia who are contributing to a major circulation american journal we do have people who submit these is two two american journalists do you have any people paid by the cia who are working for television slave mentality revolves around a two step thinking process input and output the trivium revolves around the three step process input processing and output the processing of information is our freedom and the elites see to corrupt our input through secrecy and censorship they seek to limit your freedom of processing ideas by either force or distraction but ultimately we cannot be allowed to make the same decision the elite would make if presented with the same set of facts if you can perfect this three step process of critical thinking your mind is freed and all knowledge can be learned with ease more importantly with this logical thought process you are knocking laded against predatory thought control of those that seek to manipulate you into could vanish have you this logical thought process is completely devoid in our modern education system by not questioning ideas leads to not questioning authority which serves the elite who created the system we could encourage the best qualities of usefulness curiosity adventure resilience the capacity for surprising insight simply by being more flexible about time text and tests by introducing kids to truly competent adults and giving each student whatever autonomy he or she needs in order to take the risk every now and then but we don't do that john taylor gatto this trivium thought process of logical thought feeds naturally into humans innate curiosity once fully grasped learning becomes addictive and almost insatiable you can literally feel your brain growing and firing faster your world becomes less scary because you are confident that you can overcome any challenge the elite that control our paradigm do not want critically thinking humans that would question their world and ultimately question them in the systems of control it ain't what you don't know that gets you in trouble it's what you know for sure just ain't so mark twain normalcy bias is when people underestimate the possibility of a disaster and the possible effects of that disaster everything is fine today that is our illusion voltaire normalcy bias is a direct result of people feeling to question things blindly go bang authority or failing to apply logic to a new set of information this ignorance is bliss mentality is so dangerous during times of upheaval as they fall into a false sense of security this leads to no urgency to take massive dramatic action in the face of crisis history has shown over and over again that just when things seem so peaceful it is only because th controlled this is a natural precursor to things exploding out of control the worst lies are the lies we tell ourselves we live in denial of what we do and even what we think we do this because we're afraid richard bach normalcy bias is not only true on a personal level but on all levels of society this is a major cause of systemic failure since those that are in power assume that they are masters of the universe and that everything is fine normalcy bias is the idea that since disaster has never happened it will never occur or in the case of those who own our paradigm they believe that they have the power to manage disaster with the power of the media military or the printing press the problem of the crisis we are going to face is going to be unlike any other in human history with the worldwide mathematically never book collapse of currencies and paper assets those that are in power think that it's going to be another two thousand and eight and then if they just print enough money they can get their way out of anything the money that they going to print will actually cause the major shift in paper assets the people this time around will realize that they cannot trust anybody the markets are a segregated brokerage accounts are stolen titles and properties are unclear most importantly the currency in which all these assets are measured in has terminal cancer this will result in quadrillions of paper assets trying to rush into anything that's real this rush of digital fiar cash into anything that's real will result in the system being broken those that are holding any real assets at the time of the crisis will eventually not accept any paper for their real assets when this happens it will disrupt every aspect of your life and neuter any control that the elite may have over the situation this normalcy bias also has a dramatic effect on the people even after a new reality smacks them in the face people with enormously bias will have an incredibly hard time reacting to a new reality they will not be able to question what they see with their eyes with logic they cannot believe that they or those that were in power were so wrong they will waste precious time dealing with the fact that they were so wrong and this often results in self destructive behavior as people do come to terms with this new reality it will naturally lead into the anger phase of the awakening where the emotional response from those that are completely unprepared will override any logical response from the elite or anyone else for that matter i must not fear fear is the mind killer fears the little death that brings total obliteration i will face my fear i will permit it to pass over me and through me and where it has gone past i will turn the inner eye to see its path where fear has gone there will be nothing only i will remain frank herbert the individual is handicapped by coming face to face with a conspiracy so monstrous he cannot believe it exists the american mind simply has not come to the realization of the evil which has been introduced into our mitts j edgar hoover cognitive dissidence is an uncomfortable feeling by holding two contradictory ideas simultaneously this usually manifests itself in the difference between how we think we should act and how we actually act the person that goes to church and does all the prayers and sings the song so loudest might think of themselves as a good and holy person but after church if they get in the car and yell and slap their kids there would really be a dissonance between how they think they are and what they are this will result in an uncomfortable feeling called cognitive dissidence the typical republican is pro life and talks about the sanctity of life and that usually there are the ones who support the war machine that spreads death throughout the world the typical democrat opposes war and talks about how innocent civilians are lost in barbaric wars yet they are also the same people who support abortion both of these groups hold contradictory ideas is true is that they feel are worth fighting for if life is truly sacred and needs to be protected then republicans should be pro life and anti war if humans have the right to kill each other and impose their will upon others than abortion and more one in the same the result is that we have millions of people holding these contradictory ideas and yet if they really thought about it they would not be able to move on we see this in every election cycle when we think that they're somehow a difference between the democrats and the republicans when every single fact points to the stark realization that there is no difference between the two parties on the most important issues more debt is created by a privately held central bank to fund more spending to create more wars to secure more resources to create larger corporate profits to ship more jobs overseas to destroy the middle class to create a police state to control the whole game nothing in my lifetime no matter who has been in the white house or congress has ever challenge the way our paradigm operates and yet we still feel some need to vote the foundation of all mental illness is an unwillingness to experience legitimate suffering crawl young people are predisposed to thinking that they are correct despite evidence to the contrary if a kid fails the test he might say to him self that he's smart and had justify it by saying that he's just not a good test taker or the teacher didn't like him people who smoke might think of themselves as a smart person that makes good decisions and yet they're actively increasing the risk of getting lung cancer dissonances also magnified by how much that person suffered to attain that idea or how much he's personally invested in that belief the singer tries out for american idol and is laughed out of the audition for singing horribly will leave the audition and most likely blame the judges or their choice in music or that they didn't get enough rest anything except the uncomfortable idea that they are in fact a horrible singer and that they wasted so much time and energy on something that they believed in so much was ultimately false military men are just dumb stupid animals to be used as pawns in foreign policy henry kissinger brings creative dissidents when they suffer to go through boot camp they overlook the fact that they are stripped of their individuality trained to sacrifice themselves at the instant obedience of their commanders live lives of poverty that are extremely hard on families and that a folded flag is somehow worth their kid not having a father a few marines ever stop to see that they're not fighting to spread freedom they are fighting for corporate interests by stealing their natural resources of other nations general smedley butler was one of most decorated marines in history he fought through his dissidents not by justifying his actions he did not try to convince others that being a marine was worth the sacrifice he fought through the dissidents by admitting to himself in the world quote i spent thirty three years and four months in active military service and during that period i spent most of my time as a high class muscle man for big business for wall street and the bankers and short i was a racketeer a gangster for capitalism looking back at it i might have given al capone a few hints the best he could do is operate his racket in three districts i operated on three continents if we're merely dealing with the law of averages half of the events affecting our nation's wellbeing should be good for america if we were dealing with mere incompetence our leaders should occasionally make a mistake in our favor we are not dealing with coincidence  stupidity but with planning and brilliance gary allen if someone has their entire existence tied to an idea or a job the cognitive dissidence grow stronger take for example a banker they're more apt to justify the debt and flaming of their neighbors in numerous ways rather than seeing that they're actively enslaving another human being where is the man who sees the true cost of their actions and quits doing it it is infinitely easier to create justifications than stop the actions that cause the dissonance notic contradiction in the ideas will lead to dissidents and this can be experienced as anxiety guilt shame anger comparison and stress when people are confronted with the conflict cognitive dissidence produces they must resolve the conflict in order for that person to move on cognitive dissonance can be resolved in many ways the anxiety that comes with the possibility of making a bad decision can lead to rationalization the tendency to create additional reasons or justifications to support one's choices the classic of the fox and the grapes is the story of the fox seeing grapes hanging from a tree the fox wants to eat him but when he realizes he can't reach them he overcomes his cognitive dissidence with the rationalization that the grapes are probably sour and he really didn't want them anyways hence the phrase sour grapes the same process is repeated in our society by people desire something when they find that it is unattainable they go about reducing the cognitive dissidence by criticizing it this is most obvious and they think we should get rid of the bush tax cut dissonance can lead to seeking confirmation from biased sources i pay much more than thirty five percent of my total income in taxes what do you think of the less than me and i employed are good well buffett is full people act in a destructive behavior to themselves like smoking moral dissonance in which people act in a way that is destructive to others this could be as simple as lying or something much more destructive a common justification for moral dissonance is the ends justify the means by not having the trivium to logically process and solve the dissonance by reading oneself of the contradictory belief self delusions are made to solve the dissidents so that people can live with themselves one day you will wake up and confront reality or it will confront you rather than love than money than fame give me truth henry david thoreau men prefer a false promise to a flat refusal cicero double think is when one believes in two contradictory beliefs at the same time is the opposite of cognitive dissidence the ability to tell lies in generally believe them and to forget any facts that are inconvenient advancing doublethink is the elite's defense mechanism for any challenge their power the elite know their propaganda will eventually be exposed doublethink produces an intellectual blindness to a contradiction doublethink is simply spending a story to make the government look good by deliberately lying but then simultaneously believing the news story as exactly how it happened most americans would look at baghdad bob and laugh knowing that he what he is telling you is a lie and yet we believe the same lies just because they come from our state department think about how the iraqi citizens would look at baghdad bob being the spokesperson for one of the most tyrannical regimes in the world and yet the typical iraqi would probably look at us and think that we're crazy for believing our politicians this double think is done not only to mislead the populace but more importantly in those that work for the government this is important because if the regime participants suddenly get a conscious or change consciousness the whole system would collapse because nobody would be there to run the system an example would be just the military they have to believe that they're fighting for freedom but in reality what they're doing isn't slaving populations for private profit the people can always be brought to the bidding of it's leaders tell them that they're being attacked and denounce peacemakers for lack of patriotism and for exposing the country to danger hermann goering everything the state says is a lie and everything that it has a stone frederic if you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it people will eventually come to believe it is a lie can be maintained only for such time as the state can shield these people from the political economic or military consequences of the lie it is thus vitally important for the state to use all its powers to repress dissent for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie and thus by the extension the state is the greatest enemy of the truth joseph goebbels we are an empire now and when we act we create our own reality and while you're studying that reality  as you will we will act again creating other new realities which you can study too and that's how things are going

objective of this line of thought is a nightmare world in which the leader or some ruling click controls not only the future but the past if the leader says of such and such an event in never happened well and never happened if he says two in two or five well to into our five this prospect frightens me more than bombs george orwell think about how many lies the elite tell us and yet we come to accept them as the truth does anybody believe the government unemployment numbers does anybody believe in the strong dollar policy or that inflation is really low does anybody really believe that we are the land of the free and home of the brave people will accept lies if their lives get better as their lives get worse they will inevitably ask questions and as their lives disintegrate they will start looking for both answers and suspects mike rupert in a world of universal deceit and an emperor not wearing clothes it is time to tell the truth we will know our descent from ation program is complete when everything the public believes is false william casing director of the cia and his first address to his staff in one thousand nine hundred one everything is fine today that is our allusion voltaire negative indoctrination is obvious and all personally abusive relationships if a woman is an abusive relationship with a man that man will break the will and self esteem of that woman cut her from any support so that she becomes helpless and powerless this is done for the most part by mentally abusing the person by telling lies over and over again about their looks or mental ability these lies then sink in and the fight is finally over when the person starts saying these things about themselves words do hurt harder than fists especially when those words are repeated in the victim's head for the rest of their lives if it is obvious in this example is a possible to have much larger scale to negatively indoctrinate societies if you actually read the lyrics from santa claus is coming to town and get past that childish nonsense the underlying message of that song is to fear eddie don't question or complain live up to the authorities expectations and night your wants and desires and that the authorities omnipresent and tracking you what are we teaching children with this santa clause is the first lie we tell our children illusion that we actively play in our society and he's everywhere societal allusions are passably spread when people don't talk about the reality sam is a very obvious example to the child santa is very real the child cannot mount a logical defense to the propaganda and therefore it is accepted as truth think about the process for that illusion to become reality in a child's mind an authority figure tells you story story seems plausible presidents and candy do show up out of nowhere and if you go along with the story you'll be rewarded the authority figure gains a sense of superiority and justification for their actions control over the subject to manipulate them for the further advantage of the authority what do you  are you nervous now about christmas what other forms of societal allusions are used to control you for the advantage of some elite the american dream the ability for us to print the world's reserve currency allows us to accumulate unlimited amount of debt this is allowed five percent of the world's population to consume twenty five percent of the world's oil and up to fifty percent of the world's commodities this american dream has allowed a whole generation of people to live way beyond their means and stick the bill to somebody else it is not who votes that counts it's who counts the votes joseph stalin how about the societal aleutian of our vote actually counting we have meaningless
