Is this another one of your 'word puzzles'? It's very cryptic, can I get a clue?
You've actually already quoted the comments I'm referring to! My opinion of your ability to comprehend sentences is rapidly diminishing. I am beginning to see how your world-view can be so misguided...
Give me a minute to decipher a meaning from this grammatical mess ........................ computing ..............................(coffee break) .............. nearly there .............................. just a little longer ........................ got it!
Reslts:
1. What country are you from? An English-speaking one, but that is not where I reside.
2. soleran30 is not on a pedestal. Oh, that's nice.
3. soleran30 thinks Ya Krunk'd Floo is on a pedestal. Metaphorically speaking, I may be on one in your mind's eye. However, in reality, I'm just taller than your average guy.
I hope I've helped you along your road to discovery. Here are some helpful words from my friend, Confucius:
"The journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step."

I'd have no problem telling you if it had any relevance to what we've been discussing.

Only if you're American. Other English speaking countries have media outlets that tell people about something called 'World News'.

I'm not evading, I'm dancing! Can't you see my twinkling toes?
However, you're trying really hard, so here's what your heart desires:
Born in England, lived in the US (Boston), living in Taiwan (Taipei).

I can appreciate your sarcasm..................actually the dancing thing kinda funny
So on with this discussion how is today worse then anything in the past 100 years..................alot of things change. The most important thing is now how do you feel these conspiracy theories play into todays society. What do you believe and why?
I don't believe these conspiracy theories! I find them amusing and occasionally interesting. I watched the 9/11 video that Deano linked, and stated that it's a fascinating documentary. However, I certainly don't believe all Jewish people are shape-shifting lizards, and the idea that Microsoft Word held the plot to the attacks is hilarious.
The world is a more complex place than fanciful theories about alien beings controlling the globe.

Read the quote again, Deano. I said it was 'fascinating'.

I found it convincing, but also a little fanciful.

'I can hypnotize a man - without his knowledge or consent - into committing treason against the United States.'
- Dr. George Estabrooks, Chair of the Colgate University Department of Psychology and advisor to the military on hypnosis, speaking in the early 1940s
I have seen advertising copy-writers and producers being dubbed 'the Persuaders', but that's a bit like calling an axe murderer 'a man who works with tools'. It doesn't tell the full story. 'The Persuaders' is newspeak for mind manipulators. Subliminal messages that speak to the subconscious, calculated emotional triggers, and using key words to glean a specific reaction is not persuasion, it is invasion. An invasion of our sense of perception.
Such techniques have been with us for thousands of years - at least - in the sense of manipulating thoughts and emotions to dictate behaviour. A pub close to where I live on the Isle of Wight in England has a First World War poster on the wall announcing a meeting for the 'Men of the Wight' to hear government officials and a church minister tell them why they should volunteer to be slaughtered in the trenches of northern France. The poster says that 'patriotic airs' will be sung.
But of course they would. Manipulate them to feel the patriotism for their 'great country', make them feel like heroes defending 'freedom' and they will step forward, chin up, chest out, and go off to die. It is simply mind control and we still see it today, especially in America, where dying for your country (in truth dying for those destroying your country) is considered heroic.
The level of mind control involved in this doublethink can be seen in the fact of who is doing the fighting and what they are fighting for. In the First World War, for example, millions of men fought and died for a Britain that had subjected them to the most abject poverty while the upper 'strata' of the rich and privileged dictated political and economic policy to make themselves even richer and more privileged.
In short ... it is the men from the slums who fight the wars while the men from the mansions command them.

cos i have a friggin mind of my own
The absence of mind activity that leads the poor to fight wars for the rich has bewildered me since I was a kid, but, as the Observer article, well, observed, we are 'moving' towards - I would say 'in' - a new and far more advanced era of thought dictatorship. The article was written by Steven Rose, a Professor of Biology at the Open University, and he highlights the sinister nature of the new mind technologies.
Once you realise that the human body is a biological computer (see Infinite Love Is The Only Truth - Everything Else Is Illusion) and that the brain is the CPU or Central Processing Unit of the computer, then mind control can be simply understood. It is a biological version of computer programming, that's all.
You download instructions onto the hard drive and the computer - via the brain/CPU - responds accordingly. That is, unless your higher levels of consciousness kick in and wrest the keyboard from the hacker. Rose writes:
'Brain scientists are on a roll. Concern about rising levels of mental distress have resulted in unprecedented levels of funding in the US and Europe. And a range of new technologies, from genetics to brain imaging, are offering extraordinary insights into the molecular and cellular processes underlying how we see, how we remember, why we become emotional.
Brain imaging has become familiar. Scanners, known by their initials - CAT, PET, MRI - began as clinical tools, enabling surgeons to identify potential tumours, the damage following a stroke or the diagnostic signs of incipient dementia. But neuroscientists quickly seized on their wider potential. The images of regions of the brain 'lighting up' when a person is thinking of their lover, imagining travelling from home to the shops, or solving a mathematical problem, have captured the imagination of researchers and public alike. What if they could do more?'
If you followed the electrical signals in a computer you would see different parts 'light up' - become active - when different instructions are keyed in and the brain is the same, albeit infinitely more sophisticated. And the question 'What if they could do more?' can be answered with 'They already can and the development program has been underway for at least decades'.

Yea yea yea blah blah blah ive come to realize that your just one of those people who only listen to themsleves and is always right no mater what. So, im goin to leave this thread for good now. Its not worth the little time i put into it and the criticism. So, im leaving, it doesnt matter what you post after i leave kharma because i wont see it, but i guess u can satisfy yourself knowing u posted something in response to this. I didnt go home and sit on my pc day after day to read this thread so i assume that therefor i am inferior to you? If i cant come on every once in a while and have something to say without having to read your long and sadistic rips of others then maybe i would put forth the effort but forget it. Maybe im just that lazy but hey, what do i care, i dont have to listen to you or your stupid ass mouth anymore.
