Government mind control programs are not much more effective than hypnosis. And hypnosis currently messes more people up daily than any government program.

No government program on this world has yet matched the fundamental frequency of thought. Sure they have the low frequency brain electrical cycles measured but the synaptic signals and their frequencies are still safely out of reach and will be for at least the next several hundred years - or much longer - since technologically the people of Earth are currently retrogressing. And retrogression may be a good thing for this current wasted generation, which is not mentally prepared or capable of even fundamental mental functions wihtout relying on pharmaceuticals or illegal drugs.

The truth is, Lindy, that everyone here is controlled to some degree or another. I am. You are. All the Zoners are - everyone.

You have to understand what a thought is. It is a signal. It is energy. It has specific scientific properties. Each thought is an electrical transmission.

All electrical transmissions are subject to interference. Any signal attracts energy of a like nature. So if I walk into a restaurant and everyone is thinking about food, these thoughts will resonate with my own and strengthen properties of that signal. For each person it will be different because that synaptic signal that fires in their brain will broadcast at so high a frequency it doesn't travel that far. However, each individual also has a bunch of lower frequency carrier waves and these fresh thoughts are subharmonic signals that accompany it. This signal is now the one that carries it some distance from the brain. Depending now on the amplitude of the energy input into the signal - you have the potential for some real distance for influencing and interfering with others thoughts. An angry individual - or someone obsessed - has more enrgy being fed into their thoughts controlling them. The lower emotions, hate, fear, sadness, depression, all carry a greater amplitude and can easier influence those in the immediate vicinity. These signals interfere in the thoughts of others quite easily.

Data - intelligence - found in each thought can be reduced to frequencies and wave structures. A complex thought may have millions of subharmonic signals integrated into it! Each one of those subharmonics can be exploited and strengthened or weakened by outside interference.

Our minds are always open. We can't shut them down to outside influence. Mind control is constant and the influences are many - discarnate entities (ghosts), other people's thoughts, alcohol and both legal/illegal drugs and maybe even evil aliens from other worlds ;-)

Getting all excited about the personalities involved in this stuff is relatively pointless since all of them are clueless as to the entire sum of the fields that comprise consciousness. Following these things can be harmful. Because the conspiracy sites strengthen those thoughts in your own mind and transfer some of the emotion. When around a fanatic - or worse - a whole site filled with fanatics, Their thoughts become like a big orgy - all tied into each the other. Regularly putting one's consciousness into some of these sites is like being mentally raped by all the others who participate in them.

The Democratic Underground, Daily KOS, Fre Republic and other political sites do the same thing - only on a political note. These places rape their visitors, influence their thoughts with their own hates, fears and prejudices.

To truly protect oneself one has to limit one's visitations of these types of sites. And being aware that these folks CAN reach out into your mind just when you read what they have written must be understood.

Equilibrium. That's the key word. When a site alters your equilibrium - catch yourself. Mastery of one's mind isn't taught on this world at this time. There is no instruction manual that comes with being human. No one understands the mind, the body or anything about life really. So until they do...one has to use that ol' equilibirum to gauge and preserve one's own mental health.
