Mind Control
May 24, 2014 at 6:21 pm
Why do you believe the things you believe.
Everyone relies on the Media ,but who controls the media?
Control the media and you control what goes into the minds of those who rely on the media for their beliefs.
Is everyone under their mind control?

Surely if this were true, everyone would think and believe the same things.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

No, I don't. Clearly people don't all believe and think the same things, otherwise we wouldn't be having this discussion for a start. Whether those news agencies read from the same script isn't relevant to how people reseive and interpret that information; you're attempting to shift the goalposts here (what I'm trying to coin "dolphinetics" - leaping from one point to another in an attempt, deliberate or otherwise, to throw one's opponent off-balance).
Incidentally, it's not necessary to re-quote; just a little tip.

See, if I had mind control powers (which I do NOT), I would probably use them to get people to think that the media were the ones doing mind control. This would direct suspicion away from myself and allow me to continue with my plans for world domination undetected.
But of course, I have no such powers, so stop even considering the notion that I do. You will stop thinking I can control your mind. You will stop thinking I can control your mind. You will stop thinking I can control your mind...

BTW, doesn't the existence of independent thinkers kind of negate the whole mind-control-through-media thing?
