We felt the need to post this for us for we are all brainwashed to one degree or another... Don't think so? We challenge us to watch the movies and then evaluate the question. "Am I brainwashed?"

Doctor of Psychology and Metaphysics, and lifelong student of the human mind, Eldon Taylor discussed his work in mind control and brainwashing, subliminal suggestion, lie detection, and reverse speech. The intent of his new book Mind Programming is to make people aware that marketers are spending billions to influence their minds, and that armed with this knowledge they can take back the power of their mind.
We don't stop to think that we're unable to think-- our perceptual framework has been foisted upon us, he declared, citing how violence depicted on TV and in video games acts to desensitize people to life-affirming values.
Subliminal messages have been employed by advertisers for products such as cigarettes and liquor, planting hidden material that heightens one's sense of arousal, as well as building anxiety, Taylor detailed. Political campaigns have also used these kinds of messages. For instance, during the 2000 campaign, a Bush ad against Gore, flashed the word RAT, shortened from DEMOCRAT. Such advertising does have influence, and may have even tipped the election in favor of Bush, he commented.
He also spoke about his work with lie detection and the polygraph machine, which he characterized as a kind of bio-feedback mechanism, and reverse speech, which he said has similarities to a Freudian slip.
Last week I was in a retail store that was playing an FM radio station over the speakers throughout the store. I was only in the store five minutes, long enough to hear a song that I had not heard for 20 years or so.... and it was a song that I never liked to begin with back when it was current on the charts, (late 80's, I think)....so I get out to the car a few minutes later and as I'm driving down the road, I found my self humming the tune and singing parts of the chorus to that song that I never liked to begin with. Throughout the rest of they day, several times off and on I found myself humming and singing bits & pieces of this song that I never cared for to begin with... but it is aparently now woven into the fabric of my brain. THAT is a good example of the influence of effective brain washing...... we can check out anytime we want but we can never leave.
I have not (yet) watched those videos, but a number of other researchers, to include Fritz Springmeier, have shown how programmers utilize specific content, particularly musical content (like songs, and or songs attached to video and or songs attached to "videos", etc) to embed triggers. The basic idea is, when a given trigger is activated, the programmed individual (or at least a part of their mind) does something predictable....whatever it might be... use your imagination, but they do something that the programmer predicts (wants) them to do.
10 years ago I visited Tokyo and stayed at a mini-city-style skyscraper hotel that catered to western tourists. "mini-city" - aside from having all the bells & whistles of a full-service hotel, the basement level had a grocrey store, a large deparment store, and bakery, drug store, hardware store, barber shop, beauty salon plus all kinds of knick-kacky places the way a mall does. The first level above the basement level had several restaurants and bars / taverns plus more shops for thisNthat, and then the hotel (about 90 floors) was on top of all of this. I visited the department store one day and somewhere around 10 minutes or so into this adventure, I found myself sort of in a daze just walking around aimlessly as though shopping for things I did not need. The speaker system was playing piped-in music, kinda like new-age, not necessarily new-age but it was all synthesizer instrumental sounds, ocean sounds, bird sounds, drum sounds, but no lyrics, that kind of stuff. When I first caught myself in a daze and came too, I then continued around the store while trying to pay conscious attention to the stuff (music) coming out of the speakers. In bits and snatches, here and there, I heard very subtle, almost impercetible, but I could make out a voice here or voices their whispering way down low, so low that I could barely tell they were there, but they were there, speaking sentences. I could not discern what the sentences were saying.... I could only guess they were saying things like " you really do want to buy that ______ on sale over in the _____ deparment, don't you? Buy two, it's so you!".... but for all I know, one of them was saying "why don't you pull out a gun and blow away a bunch of strangers. and don't worry, we'll take care dropping enough fake clues to make it look like you did this all of your own volition ?"..........kinda creepy.
I was sitting in the Dentist chair the other day (its an electric job with all the power options) and also had a similar experience.
I love my dentist, couldn't be a greater guy, he likes country western music, so that is what us patients listen to.
But I swear what I heard... a soft whispering voice over those audio speakers telling me... "mama tried to steer me right, but it did no good, and since I turned 21 in prison doing life without parole... I deserved whatever was going to come down the pike while sitting in this here chair..." And when it came time to take the X-rays, they laid that heavy lead vest on me... I knew that they had me where they wanted me and there was no use trying to escape.
