Brainwash

[psadpoiafsdf]

11 months ago you got really angry at me for something I said about hank williams I think. What did I say?

[Aargh28]

Cool vid, guy.

[TEPEY0L0HTLi]

good video brother keep on opening eyes

[PublicDisgrace2]

The contol excerised is only because people who actually hold the real power in this nation are too divided or too lazy to use it. People in the United States have the power to vote. VOTE!

[melbourneopera]

Ha Ha......... you just terrorise the American and Misuse the religion.....Peace and forgiveness.....Hatred is the ultimate source to brainwash for religious people......Self-worshipping

[connielane]

I'm a terrorist too!

[57waldo57]

TRUTH!

[peaceoman]

This thing we hear on the news about insurgents in Iraq.These so called terrorists may see the occupying forces as invaders.If in their shoes would we not see the same thing?

[dogbadgolfer]

metriod prime music!!

[qizalia]

So true. Control and manipulate people's fears and you control the world.

[qizalia]

even the fairy tales set one up for greed unobtainable desires and envy: the Owl and the Pussy cat The owl and the pussycat went to sea In a beautiful peagreen boat They took some honey and plenty of money Wrapped up in a five-pound note They sailed away for a year and a day To the land where the Bongtree grows They danced by the light of the moon The moon the moon They danced by the light of the moon

[adamatova]

Hey - what is the tactic that governments use to distract the public......is there a name and what is its history?

[desheik]

The News?

[adamatova]

Yea - but there's a name like psy-ops or something. There's a lull....or they want to swing the attention to them via some catastrophe where they're seen as the *heroes who'll save the day*......and bam there it is - WW3 or some act of terror. I know there's a name for this maneuver....

[desheik]

Operation Mockingbird is the name of the CIA program to control the news media. Many journalists work for them. It started under Truman.

[coolronification]

@adamatova It's called a "False Flag", Hitler did it when he burned a German govt. building and blamed the communists. Same as 911

[lovdanig]

@adamatova This started in 1965 when LBJ passed civil rights middleclass kids were getting a good education until the 70's when forced busing brought their education to a HALT Instead of learning math spelling,geography kids were exposed to rowdy black kids who lurked the halls molesting the once peaceful schools. The ULTRA rich go to private schools if a black kid goes there they are probably not the ghetto type like the Middeclass were exposed to.Once peaceful schools lay in RUINS INTEGRATION

[dipclip]

They are using the techniques such as Deseption, if someone have a realy strong case against the "lets say goverment" the person / group could in the worst case get killed, or in the situasions that the goverment draw the media away from the accual happening, as Desh said, a terrorist is anyone who opposes the domination of the world by capitalist thieves.

[jmurphy914]

You guys think Iraqis wanted to be under the rule of a totalitarian nightmare of a dictator? Please! You are right on, until you start raving about "terrorists".

Terrorists are the people who kill non-combatants by targeting them and carrying out a plan of murdering them. They wear no uniform, shoot at us from a house full of children to maximize their own civilian death toll when we shoot back.Iraqi's DO want freedom and will have it.Afghanistan is another story, we can't win.Sharia Law reigns

[z99GSTrollinMCE99z]

whats with the owl

[eight38s]

Is that metroid theme?

[qizalia]

I believe its time to underline empathically what we really want

[rudican]

Is the music from metroid prime?

[yoavzi]

and that is why Oil Shortage is our friend!

Before this comment gets a -6 rating, which is will.... think about this all those who hate the system and wish for its fall (like me!)

if ppl are that brainwashed, they will not rebel, hence no change will come to pass ... IMO the only thing which will crash babylon is a catasrophe..... the future generations will then be able to learn from our mistakes, and take only the good parts (science and stuff) .... anyways.....

[BIndeed]

i was talking to someone yesterday about the war...and how they 'deserve it' because 'they attacked US!'. i couldnt for the life of me get him to consider why they would do such a thing. his reason was basically because they're jealous. when i asked him how he would feel if he was born in iraq and some group whom hes never heard of attacked the US, and then he himself was attacked and displaced, his response was, well we (i)deserve it. how dare they attack the super-power. it was unbelievable.

[Dark00stirfry]

metroid prime theme in the background, hahahahahahahahahaha!!!

[CheekyMonkey888]

Power corrupts ... absolute power corrupts absolutely ... once said a wise man;

The higher a power structure, the more likely it is to be corrupted; keep power local, personal rights paramount, more government is not the answer (never has been... never will be)

[Tarantahorusx]

Eugene Debbs, I love it. Thats eexactly what we need an American Socialist party renasance.

[eekdog2005]

I've seen the brainwashed american zombies, the fluoridated water dumbing them down more & more. The media reporting news like it's for a 4th grader, The arguments are childish in nature and the focus is away from issues of importance. People really don't know whats going on today.

[ACORCASE]

What's kind of worse is how many people have accepted being lied to and manipulated as a part of life.

[dermonkeyboi]

Interesting.

[4I8EP]

We are continuing to see a massive increase in defense spending. Already, the USA spends more on its military than all the other countries of the world combined do on military spending. Over 1 million contractors are now connected with DOD, and they are milking her dry. Ex-military galore, no-bid contracts, politicians lobbied continuously to "influence" DOD for more. The business of Defense is now an integral part of American Business.

[4I8EP]

The real killers, those who design the nukes, the guns, the bombs, are in American offices everywhere, GE, Raytheon, Bechtel, and a thousand other American corporations.

[DAMIANSPWN]

I am in agreement with you. Americans as a whole are content to be uninformed. Most do not have a clue how good life is outside the US. The health care system of Europe and Canada, Costa Rica and Panama are far superior to the USA. Higher education is a right for all citizens regardless of economic status and based on merit. Americans are fed propaganda like Kim Jung IL feeds North Korea... and most don't question it.

[jalomut]

The US has been based on expansionism ever since it's inception and dependent on the military ever since the 2nd World War.

How it gets out of the vicious cycle it's got into is anybody's guess.

[Somalid]

"Any nation that year after year continues to raise the Defense budget while cutting social programs to the neediest is a nation approaching spiritual death." - Rev. MLK

[IamYournot33]

Eisenhower warned in his farewell address NOT to tie the economy to the Industrial Military Complex,

But they have been in bed together ever since and we the taxpayer have been getting screwed.

[e74ever]

US world domination aspirations are being passed off as "Spreading democracy". The USA has no real interest in establishing democracy in any country, it is only interested in setting up puppet regimes throughout the world.

The twin bludgeons of US bases and threats of economic disruption are used to threaten any country which wants to break away from towing the line.

[MsNovaLee]

It isn't the US. The US is a hand in it. Corporations controle are controling the US and more. Wich meens it is consumers/us that controle what is going on, because we work for them, buy fron them, sell. As long as you use any type of currency, you too are responsible...Look into it...it's crazy, and maybe to late to do anything about, because no one will want to admit responsibility, or cahnge their life style. We have created this one world government together through fear and ignorance

[Occlane]

A disturbing recent phenomenon in Washington is that laws that strike to the heart of American democracy have been passed in the dead of night. So it was with a provision quietly tucked into the enormous defense budget bill at the Bush administration's behest that makes it easier for a president to override local control of law enforcement and declare martial law.

[Occlane]

The provision, signed into law in October, weakens two obscure but important bulwarks of liberty. One is the doctrine that bars military forces, including a federalized National Guard, from engaging in law enforcement. Called posse comitatus, it was enshrined in law after the Civil War to preserve the line between civil government and the military.

[Occlane]

The other is the Insurrection Act of 1807, which provides the major exemptions to posse comitatus. It essentially limits a president's use of the military in law enforcement to putting down lawlessness, insurrection and rebellion, where a state is violating federal law or depriving people of constitutional rights.

[FlaStrules]

Interestingly enough, the thirty-eight large and medium-sized American facilities spread around the globe in 2005 -- mostly air and naval bases for our bombers and fleets -- almost exactly equals Britain's thirty-six naval bases and army garrisons at its imperial zenith in 1898.

[FlaStrules]

The Roman Empire at its height in 117 AD required thirty-seven major bases to police its realm from Britannia to Egypt, from Hispania to Armenia. Perhaps the optimum number of major citadels and fortresses for an imperialist aspiring to dominate the world is somewhere between thirty-five and forty.

[FlaStrules]

The total of America's military bases in other people's countries in 2005, according to official sources, was 737. Reflecting massive deployments to Iraq and the pursuit of President Bush's strategy of preemptive war, the trend line for numbers of overseas bases continues to go up.

[FlaStrules]

It is not easy, however, to assess the size or exact value of our empire of bases. Official records available to the public on these subjects are misleading, although instructive. According to the Defense Department's annual inventories from 2002 to 2005 of real property it owns around the world, the Base Structure Report, there has been an immense churning in the numbers of installations.

[FlaStrules]

Once upon a time, you could trace the spread of imperialism by counting up colonies. America's version of the colony is the military base; and by following the changing politics of global basing, one can learn much about our ever more all-encompassing imperial "footprint" and the militarism that grows with it.

[addadb]

The racial aspect of war should not be underestimated. The US supported apartheid in South Africa until it became publicly embarrassing and even though we supported Saddam through all his crimes the idea of him gassing Kurds was a major lever in pushing the public to support the war. There is an incredibly obvious double standard. Darfur is another example.

[Jonaslk]

The entire advertising culture of America is one of lies and hypocrisy. A plastic surgeried make up caked facade doused with cheap perfume which can't quite cover the stench of corpses in the closet.

[fereznekoff]

An official US definition takes terrorism to be the calculated use of violence or threat of violence to attain goals that are political, religious, or ideological in nature, through intimidation, coercion, or instilling fear. That formulation leaves many question open, among them, the legitimacy of actions to realize the right to self-determination, freedom, and independence of people forcibly deprived of that right, particularly peoples under colonial and racist regimes and foreign occupation.

[fereznekoff]

Some argue that the evil of terrorism is absolute and merits a reciprocally absolute doctrine in response. That would appear to mean ferocious military assault in accord with the Bush doctrine, if you harbor terrorists, you're a terrorist; if you aid and abet terrorists, you're a terrorist -- and you will be treated like one.

[fereznekoff]

So the Us response to 911 was to kill half a million Iraqis and make four million more refugees.

Apparently all you have to do is look like a terrorist and live near oil.

[grasshopper321]

Inspiring.

[dabigpolarmoose]

If McCain gets elected the US will complete it's transformation into the Gulag.

[jezeppie]

Scary but true.

[saguaro88]

Well done.

[delereeusmb]

Special deluxe.

[czarwright]

Powerful truth, i will never be apart of this power trip. "You are either with us or against us" where's the opp out button? no choice, no freedom.

Peace

[zegreeenbuds]

Big props Homie!

[fr3thinker]

Prison/Jails are horrible places - all I know of them is from reputation, films, etc. If it's true what goes on in them (as in the film "Shawshank Redemption", etc) then I will continue to consider them to be evil places and to consider it criminal how they are run (how some malicious guards and malicious prisoners can get away with crimes behind bars). Prisons are supposed to be places of corrections and safety - not places where I'd not send my worst enemy like they are now.

[masssimpletn]

The idea that one person can "correct" another is flawed at it's core.

[fr3thinker]

I'm saying prisons are named Corrections Centres in USA, so surely that is their intent. And I agree that it's not the outcome of these Correction Centres to correct/educatate/heal people. I do wonder though if the Industrial War Machine was ended, if there would then come about a reduction in public crime, and if so then how long would it take for that to happen.

[sinorcemoss]

If you don't have poor people being treated unfairly I think you would have very little crime.

The much larger amount of crime occurs in the corporate world virtually unpunished.

[sinorcemoss]

Correctional systems are more about repressing the lower classes, roughing them up to let them know who is boss.

Prisons are a crime against God and humanity. To treat each other with such cruelty and lack of respect belies a profound underlying psychological disturbance.

[aROSHOMATIC]

I would like to see the US fight these people without Air support. They would get slaughtered. So we are using ill gotten wealth to create the most sophisticated killing machinery in the world and using it against rag tag groups of local fighters and calling them the threat.

[aROSHOMATIC]

When will the US see what the world sees that it is the aggressor with ignoble motives. That it is the murderer of innocent men women and children. That it is responsible for the destruction of millions of peoples lives.

[aROSHOMATIC]

The idea that they, the elite wealthy, can decide the fate of a sovereign nation based on the need for a strategic hold on the world's oil reserves is a path towards hell for no people will tolerate the humiliation inflicted on them without eventually retaliating.

[4I8EP]

Hellatious!

[357dinko]

More and more people are finding out the truth everyday.

[BCzepa]

i approve this message

[BCzepa]

i approve this message

[zezt]

Great and to the point. And only one thing I dont agree with but admire your boldness. Is at the end where you say 'I am a terrorist'. my immediate response was gonna be 'so am I' and then i thought. IF i say that then I claim their propaganda. Ie., that anyone who sees through their evil is terrorist.

THEY are terrorist. You are visionary. so am I

[sinorcemoss]

I think the point was that according to Bush and fellow neocon fanatics either you support their empire building war culture or you are the enemy. Faced with that choice I also choose to be the enemy.

[zezt]

but its using their lingo is what i mean. I'd rather say, YO Wbush muthafukin war criminal you and yours. I am freedomlover not your terrorist

or something like that

[sinorcemoss]

But doesn't there come a point like say when the survival of all life is at stake when our opposition must become more than words?

[zezt]

well yeah. But notice that these people USE lingo --fuck with it to do their power

If you 'admit' you are a 'terrorist' then you are kind of like in their game

[sinorcemoss]

That's the point. We are all prisoners in their game. We can bitch and moan or resist.

[zezt]

and 'resist' surely must include resisting their terms of reference?

[jezeppie]

It must surely include doing something to effectively stop them. Semantics are important but their are people dying in Najaf and Basra as the American public is ignored by the government and distracted by the puppet show of an election.

[zezt]

I dont see the 1960s as a failure. I see those times as part and parcel with ours and the Indigenous genocides. It is all connected.

What these people rely on is a substantial portion of the people blinded by propaganda

[sinorcemoss]

Agreed.

[jezeppie]

An organized population would have no trouble resisting. What the War Macine learned from the sixties with the huge protests and riots is that the public must be kept duped and sedated and brainwashed.

Madison Avenue is their main weapon.

[steadyblazin209]

nice

[w0r1dpeace]

EPIC

[TrixieTrickx]

yep

[TexanCyclist]

Well spoken, fellow non-silent member of the growing majority in opposition.

[mistaspot1]

Me too brother. If a terrorist is anyone who opposes what we're doing or how we're behaving then I am a terrorist, and I don't care if that's one more entry into the file the NSA keeps on me. Some things are more important than the self.

[MiGP1981]

Carnation Revolution! Get On With It, Godspeed!

[publikroad]

The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it comes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is fascism - ownership of government by an individual, by a group. - FDR

[sinorcemoss]

Good quote even if it is from the closest thing we have had yet to an American dictator.
