De Propaganda Fides

Propaganda is a Latin word. Originally it was used by horticulturists to describe a method of propagating plants. The Catholic church adopted it to describe the method by which to propagate the Catholic faith. The method could create an attitude toward any individual, organization, or ideal by influencing opinion... It can be religious, cultural, or political, and it is used in all the means of communication, as well as the arts. It plays a large role in internal, as well as external relations, The Voice of America, and The U. S. Information, for instance. Propaganda can be a very effective both as a tool or a weapon, in the hands of experts but a loose cannon in the hands of non professionals. All you have to do is tune in any call in show to see what I mean. It's all Negative or Positive propaganda. Positive propaganda praises a sponsor's product or service and negative propaganda condemns, demonizes, insults, slanders, and all but cuddles an opposing political party, religion and anyone associated with the ideal, belief, or proposition. Positive propaganda is handled by a professional propagandist, while Negative propaganda is left up to the caller, that is because the radio station must not get too deeply involved in the negatism or it may be held liable. The talk Master can control the conversation by allowing station sanctioned negativism and cutting short opposing callers. Incidentally, never assume that call in radio is about the caller's freedom of speech, it all about the station's freedom of speech. Talk-shows do not represent one view-point or another because of their profound belief and commitment to "the cause." Most of the stations are part of a greater corporation that depends on a Special Interest of some sort for most of it's funding.; Their corporate offices are lobbied by deep pocket bag-men just as aggressively as they lobby politicians, and should you be under the spell of talk-shows and think that these lobbyists are committed to the ideal of better their services broadcasting, better government or better unity of any sort, guess again. They are mercenaries, their loyalty is for hire to the highest bidder. Talk radio has the means by which to reach thousands of listeners, and for a price they will deliver the client's message. If it is an honest message it is Positive Propaganda, if it is not, it is Negative Propaganda. Sales Propaganda has to be phones, or the FTC would come down hard on the station. In other cases the intent of the perbetrator is taken into account. Not in sales propaganda, ignorance is no defense when it comes to defrauding in sales propaganda, the intent to defraud does not have to be there to obtain a conviction. In other cases, the perpetrator's familiarity with the product is taken into account, but not in sales propaganda. None of this is true about Political Propaganda. Physical contact is about the only thing that is forbidden in political propaganda. That is why candidates, radio talk-show hosts, and callers can get away with what they say. Not because Talk Masters, Networks, or individual radio stations protect the callers freedom of speech . The Constitution does that. What talk-radio does for your freedom of speech is to make you jump through a dozen hoops before you are allowed to practice it on certain shows and if you get passed the screamers and on the air, the host can still hang up on or give you the bums rush so that you cannot fully express yourself then spend the next half hour criticizing what they think you were going to say. I won't paint all talk-masters with the same wide brush. There are some that air both sides of an argument, but most let it happen only if the criticism is what they would say themselves. Once again I ran out of space before I got to my main point.

MIND CONTROL - Part 3 (continued)

MIND CONTROL 3 (continued)

Career soldiers fraternize and co-habituate with the locals wherever they are called to serve.
They cultivate friendships that teach them the language, culture and customs of the people. Most importantly, seemingly inconsequential regional differences;
It was via these friends that Gl's in Korea first learned about" Charly's Electronic Brain Washing. " Bravado boosting jokes about Chinese Laundries changed to jokes about Charly's New and Improved Dry Cleaning business .
Things got more serious as more stories of returning POW's were passed around. What was getting into these guy's heads? They were said to act more like Charly than Charly did when they came back.
Repatriated POW's were isolated and whisked away back home to be de­briefed and for the brass to find out more about what was happening behind enemy lines.
Rumors about these Ex- POW'S filtered out via the GI Grape Vine, Some of these rumors were that returning POW's were emaciated, and allowed to eat whatever they pleased, as much as they pleased, at whatever hour they wanted to eat on board the troopships taking them home.
One intriguing rumor that was later written up in a widely read magazine was about a POW returning home by plane suddenly changed personalities in mid flight. It seems that the GI had grown up in a very abusive family and had unconsciously created a second personality that protected him when things got too unbearable.
He had been laken prisoner early in the Korean conflict and had spend several years there. Apparently, the care­taker personality had emerged when he was first taken, and it was not until some three years later that, on board that plane that the caretaker personality returned to the subconscious and the normal personality took over once morel, COMPLETELY UNAWARE OF . WHAT HAD OCCURRED DURING THOSE THREE YEARS.!
When replacements who had undergone anti brain washing training, or at least said that they had been trained to avoid Mind Control, finally began showing up , they were taken with a large dose of salt. Most of what they claimed to know were just revised methods of avoiding falling for visual and auditory enemy propaganda.
According to bits and pieces of credible rumors this so called Electronic Brain Washing could peneotrate through steel helmets, plastic liners, hair and scull and find your brain, however small it was, changing your personality by replacing your emotions and substituting your character with their version of how you should think. It worked whether you listened, or not whether you listened to radio, they looked or not.
Reason told the Gi's one thing and imagination told them something else. When those two are pitted against each other, imagination will win every time. , and the imagination of soldiers in combat zones quietly grew from mosquito-size to the enormity comparable to the fear now felt for the coming year 2012. the end of the Mayan Calendar, and as invisible but effective, as a Mind Control weapon. Fear, distrust and divisiveness now appeared .. (to be continued.)
