Topic: Are we brainwashed? - page 17. (Read 7915 times)

If life is like a brain, I'm totally being washed.


The only goals in this life that really matter are twofold and I have no say in the matter at all - in fact, I'm pulled in (or pushed out) and pushed out (or pulled in) without my consent.


I live and I die.

Some people fought and gave their life for freedom. The majority were as brainless sheep as today's people if not even more, and you can't blame them for that. Life in the past was harsh. It was hard enough just to survive and get by, let alone have some larger than life cause.

Nowadays however it's much easier to have a normal acceptable life, and what we do with that? We all go after some fake cause like animal rights or feminism. Worthy causes also are becoming simply trends among young people and thus losing their value. We're observing the death of ideals.

I have a goal, my ultimate goal is to return myself back to Godhead, but consider this, we are not brainwashed, if you want to be brainwashed you must go to church, temple,... where they praise the allmighty, and with that proces you wash your brains, becasue we have so dirty brains, that we got from over deceades, and with serving God we get brainwahsed.

It's tough out there. Braceurselves

In this age, brainwashing is done via television advertisement, they market their products and tell you exactly what you need and convince you to buy them.

Special services are brainwashed and run by us. They create the right mood in society through TV, radio, music and social networks. And we do not even suspect how we are run

This generation is more and more educated with social media platform

but yet we are brainwashed with the facts

Man always lives in society, therefore he always follows the rules of this society. Brainwashing can be called everything - and study in school and vostipatnie and patriotism. Man will always live as society tells him

The sad truth is kids these days before they grow up is being molded like robot and being brainwashed through the process, and the dangerous part is that the people who are teaching the kids kniws that what they are teaching is right because that's what the majority say or do. We are not being brainwashed everyday, we are mailed in beliefs since we were young and it's up to us to escape.


Carry on, carry on. Uuhhm I think if we want to hear about more details how brainwashed we are, there is a song that best describe this:

What's wrong with the world, mama
People livin' like they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world addicted to the drama
Only attracted to things that'll bring you trauma

Overseas, yeah, we try to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists here livin'
In the USA, the big CIA
The Bloods and The Crips and the KKK

But if you only have love for your own race
Then you only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate then you're bound to get irate, yeah

Madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
Man, you gotta have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind and meditate
Let your soul gravitate to the love, y'all, y'all

It just ain't the same, old ways have changed
New days are strange, is the world insane?
If love and peace are so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don't belong?

Nations droppin' bombs
Chemical gasses fillin' lungs of little ones
With ongoin' sufferin' as the youth die young
So ask yourself is the lovin' really gone

So I could ask myself really what is goin' wrong
In this world that we livin' in people keep on givin' in
Makin' wrong decisions, only visions of them dividends
Not respectin' each other, deny thy brother
A war is goin' on but the reason's undercover

The truth is kept secret, it's swept under the rug
If you never know truth then you never know love
Where's the love, y'all, come on (I don't know)

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I'm gettin' older, y'all, people gets colder
Most of us only care about money makin'
Selfishness got us followin' the wrong direction

Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what they see in the cinema

Yo', whatever happened to the values of humanity
Whatever happened to the fairness and equality
Instead of spreading love we're spreading animosity
Lack of understanding, leading us away from unity

That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' down
There's no wonder why sometimes I'm feelin' under
Gotta keep my faith alive 'til love is found
Now ask yourself

Where is the love?
Where is the love?
Where is the love?
Where is the love?

Father, Father, Father, help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love?

Sing with me y'all:
One world, one world (We only got)
One world, one world (That's all we got)
One world, one world
And something's wrong with it (Yeah)
Something's wrong with it (Yeah)
Something's wrong with the wo-wo-world, yeah
We only got
(One world, one world)
That's all we got
(One world, one world)

Yes, but many people learn to think on their own and decide what they really need to buy and what not. Children need to learn from the very childhood to think and develop their own thinking, so that advertising can not brainwash them.

Consumerism 101


On point. All corporate sponsored media is intended to deceive you in a small way. Be that buying a product or service, or voting for something; they only spent time and money crafting said message because they want something from you. Usually, your time, money, or both.

The world is ruled by rhetoric. We are much less sensitive to it as humans now; we have distracted ourselves so long we forgot how to pay attention to our surroundings, stay aware. We have been too safe. And so, we have relinquished some of the drive to discover, to question. That has been replaced by consensus. If enough people say something is a way, then that's just gotta be the way it is, no?

And all this, after communication technology advances to its pinnacle. Go figure.

Well, it didn’t just happen. It was designed.

Shortly after the World War 2, these guys were figuring out how to ramp up the [U.S.] economy.
Retailing analyst Victor Lebow articulated the solution that has become the norm for the whole system.
He said: “Our enormously productive economy . . . demands that we make consumption our way of
life, that we convert the buying and use of goods into rituals, that we seek our spiritual satisfaction, our
ego satisfaction, in consumption . . . we need things consumed, burned up, replaced and discarded at
an ever-accelerating rate.”

The elites and politicians has used the media especially the social media to brainwashing humanity. Our Academic system also do not help matters. The Educational materials teach us to work for people company and no dreams and thinking of having our own. Social media as tools to work of our mind by allowing sinful people to post worldly thing to distract people from using their mind for personal advancement.

our generation has been brainwashed  and I do believe  the social media, redio and TV are the tools the elite are using against this generation. people are no longer thinking of ideology and destiny again like our father but now of women, porn, car and thing of this world.

They put less salt and sugar in a food product and charge us more  < brainwashed   

A bar of chocolate goes smaller   
they give us a cut of 2p on the bar and we think it's a deal < brainwashed

Flavours in food products don't taste the same as many year ago ..

DILUTION Of PRODUCTS to make more money..We are all brain washed in someway..

I will say some more than others though .BADECKER

It seems to me that if I don't want something as vexing for any advertising. People make their own choices. It is easy to blame my mistakes on others.

We are being brainwashed every single day with large corporations pushing advertisments to us making us to wanna buy their stuffs. Also from the psychology point of view we dont exactly have too much power over it anyways.

Wow, " fast car and sleep with plenty of women", so many people have fast cars and sleep with plenty of women these days? Well...as to women it s probbly difficult to judge, but definitely I see it from 1 in 10 to 1 in 100 fast cars among ordinary cars on the street. So it seems like not everybody having fast cars.

People have become equipped with knowledge but they become idiots...

Yes like many on here.

We are brain washed so the government can take public money away ..
They sell public companies to the rich elite so they can use us as slaves ..


Getting on a BUS  cost 4p to go 1 stop in 1978  TODAY getting on a bus 1 stop £2.20 to go 1 stop..

So who ever say we are about consuming  ..

You will have to be a MILLIONAIRE just to live like we lived on the social security in the not so near
future..

Council home will cost 1 million 20 years time ..some in London already do..


Has wages gone up to compensate for the rises ..ANSWER NO..

I DON'T WANT TO LIVE LIKE THE  USA..   No chance they don't give a hoot for there people..

In America no money DIE..Oh not unless your good at asking for donations..

The government as made the people hate SOCIALISM 

Hate socialism means   LETS not give the people any of there TAXES back for new roads

BRAINWASHED 

Be with yourself, do what makes you happy so you wont be full of regrets. Life is not about struggling to death to finish goals, sometimes you need to sit back and relax for a while.

I really like the way you have compared modern days with ancient Rome times, the only thing that citizens wanted was food and entertainment.

As you said, we are perfect consumers.
We live and die in a race for money, which is pretty much meaningless, the greed runs the world.

Moreover, people have chosen to give up their own privacy and "freedom" in the name of "safety".
A very good example is US, and patriot act.
They can spy literally anyone without any special permissions, ask me why?
Because people want to lose their freedom and privacy, for more surveillance, even more police and this fake feeling of being safe in your own country.
