It is a waste of time to continue to try to develop a power one does not have.

Manipulating (e.g. "people who down vote [sic] refuse to believe"), spreading fear (e.g. "[mind manipulation occurs on] an 'industrial' scale"), and inflating one's own ego (e.g. "I am a renegade of thought control") contribute little to the discussion of this article.

That is all.

Rational comments can't change a mind driven primarily by emotions, especially negative ones like fear. We humans are not rational beings at the bottom of the things, and our school system does little to fight that.

Thats why elections look like they look, that's why internet is not anymore a beacon of freedom and truth, but rather swamp of lies, manipulation and half-truths that one has to have a dedicated skill to navigate through. A skill many older folks (but not only them) simply don't have and probably never will, this covers ie my parents too.

Folks that will listen to those sweet little and big lies about how everything will be great without great changes and sacrifices, when reality is way more complex.

I honestly cannot tell if your speaking for or against my first hand account, or the vehement denier :/

Accurate and useful information for anyone that has ever overestimated their individual ability to discern all of reality with a mere folklore sense of it.

Every sitting president since George W has had an "introductory" level of awareness with thought control, America's grand extortionist. George W had been indoctrinated since college, during his xxx initiation. Before that, like you they only had a Man's ignorance in themselves.

I think it is time to stop denying the exogenous of thought control. For the sake of world peace and all (your weaponized denial.)

I know you'll call me crazy, that doesn't make it untrue.

Creating a social stigma against anyone who doubts the government is highly beneficial for the government.

Are you calling me a lier?
