The Century of the Self Trailer and Links(BBC Documentary)

[1965ajax]

I'm on my fourth viewing at the moment.. You get new info everytime you watch it!! lol

...I was having a cheeky chuckle to myself when i noticed most of the Psychologist/psychotherapists were German or Austrian, especially the third one called Reich...

Why are there so few comments on a video with so many views?

[mattme020202]

Most of Adam Curtis' documentaries are brilliant. Power of Nightmares is gripping!

[Hilarybeal4444]

Very interesting, it's a BBC documentary in 4 parts, each an hour long.

[solanaceaesolarium]

i've recommended this to many friends...so glad to find it here. thanks for posting.

[Badwolf182]

a great illustration of how psychology is used against us. The main premise of the zionist controlled govt is that there is something wrong with humans adn thus needs fixiing. Wham u have psycholoists/psychiatrists/cou­nsellors and the ilk. Yet society is getting worse for having these - go figure?

IF there is a shadow self then maybe its in the dark for a frikin reason lol

[Badwolf182]

@Badwolf182 and......they R using psychlogy to control us - thru conformity. Thus the real reason ppl feel depressed or anxious maybe the fact that the world seems crazy to them - there's no meaning/ nor real satisifcation - mindless trival we call work/life. The elites dont want ppl to think outside the box. They want a herd mentality. .

[Badwolf182]

@Badwolf182 SO instead of supporting and encouraging these ppl based on their personal experience, they instead want to change u to the rest of the herd. Ohhh u mustnt think for urself

[tuitionfruition]

So, it is our underlying desires and aggessions by which we can be controlled by those that seek to make money from us, so that they can satisfy their underlying desires and aggressions by spending that money which transfers that money to others who can then satisfy their underlying desires and aggressions......

[TenderTrap86]

If anybody else is interested in this topic look at "Seduction of a Generation" by G. Edward Griffin and also Griffin's interview with Yuri Bezmenov. Bezmenov was a KGB defector and before had served as a high Soviet authority on propaganda for the state-run Novosti newspaper.

[Badwolf182]

@TenderTrap86 Than just got it :)

[politics105]

Amazing, all the information given in this video and all some people can say is; I like that music and do you know what it is.

[Xenostrobe]

I see what you mean... it's as if they're doing it to be ironic. I can only hope it went down easier, perhaps Shakespeare should have the same soundtrack.

[KilluminatiMujahad]

I saw both parts of this documentary and it is great, it shows how Americans got brainwashed into adopting secular values and all of a sudden boom you get the hippies,!! Amazing documentary, I recommend people watch the whole thing, its here on youtube!!

[karabanana011]

@KilluminatiMujahad there are 4 parts...

[Azzenstudent]

@KilluminatiMujahad Your summary is laughable.

[KilluminatiMujahad]

@Azzenstudent Which part do you find amusing cus I think its quite sad. this isn't a joke you know, unless laughing to you is a form of disassociation.

[Azzenstudent]

@KilluminatiMujahad It's hilarious that someone evokes the specter of dreaded "hippies" midwifed by "secular values". I read a lot of crackpot theories online but yours is definitely one of most deluded.

[KilluminatiMujahad]

@Azzenstudent You think this is some sort of a theory? Obviously you didn't watch. The fact is that this so called freedom or do what you want idea of freedom that is propagated in the name of democracy is exactly what leads to youth being mislead into these type of fringe groups. today we have youth who think its cool to be a criminal or a Gangsta and others who think its cool to be depressed like the so called emos for example and your telling me this is a coincidence or some sort of theory?

[Azzenstudent]

@KilluminatiMujahad Correlation is not causation. Reality may be a bit more complicated than the Readers' Digest version. My recommendation is to consider without judging. An open mind learns. Your can't.

[1965ajax]

@KilluminatiMujahad I'm always confused when people say all the right things about, how governments control the way we think & how advertising manipulates our choices etc..

The confusing part of it for me is, they themselves are being governed & manipulated by a particular religious belief... I don't get it..

Maybe you could throw some light on it for me ?

Cheers Mate.

[terrisl]

@1965ajax Is atheism a religious belief? Does a pile of nothing become something? Sure, I guess if you wait long enough.

[1965ajax]

@terrisl I've no idea...

[TheWingflyer]

@1965ajax It's one thing to be lead by a body of one's own beliefs. It's totally different to be controlled by *people's* willing, thoughtful cunning in real-time.

That said, the people doing this manipulation don't usually worship anything like God but instead they worship power and wealth.

[1965ajax]

@TheWingflyer ..Why do you feel the need to share that with me ?

Do you have any opinions of your own, rather than stating the obvious ?

[algonquin91]

I like the music at the beginning =)

[armghan]

i am looking for this track, do you know what is it?

[algonquin91]

No, but I wish I did...I like how its so retro!! What do you think it would be called? Do you think its in the credits?

[sleinad]

I think it's called "Portofino" by Raymond Scott. When you listen to it, it's easy to see how future forms of electronic music had its origins. Way ahead of its time (it's from the early sixties), it reminds me of the New Romantic phase of music in the eighties.

[algonquin91]

Thanks! I wonder if I could find it anywhere...

[sleinad]

I found it on Apple iTunes. The album is called Manhattan Research, Inc.

[sleinad]

PS. You're pretty lucid for a 107 year old ;-)
