miceail's misadventures

How many roads must a man walk down, before you call him a man? How many seas must the white dove sail, before she sleeps in the sand? The answer my friend, is blowing in the wind

mind control

been seeing alot of the american military recruiting commercials popping up on tv lately.... its comical how they portray a military career, like its some sort of adventure trip laced with veins of patriotism and a "fun with friends feel". someone should counter with just putting up a number of the body count from the last year.... and for what? greed? like chappelle says.... "the reality of the situation is..... very grim."

its a different story when a war is waged and or justified by matters or threats to self determination or self preservation. when your people are content being ignorant and easily manipulated i guess that presents an opportunity.

its interesting watching the evolution of propaganda... i studied a fair amount of it in university. methods are tried and tested...... but true??

Hitler's Minister for Propaganda, Joseph Goebbles said "Propaganda has only one object - to conquer the masses. Every means that furthers this aim is good; every means that hinders it is bad." Goebbles supported his ghoulish propaganda campaign with his philosophy indoctrinated into the Nazi mind-set: "If you tell a lie enough times, it becomes accepted as truth, and, the bigger the lie, the more likely it is to be accepted."

pertenant examples: 9/11. iraq. knicks not winning championships.
