Brainwashing Made Easy (12-24-06)

I am of the generation where technology rapidly changed things. As a small boy I remember my grandmother doing laundry with a washboard, clothespins, and sunshine. Then came the washer and dryer and the chore suddenly became a comfortable convenience. I remember reading 1984 and seeing old war movies about brainwashing and I think that technology has moved this from chore to a comfortable convenience. I am amazed at the levels of indoctrination that are now always present. I think it most obvious here in jail because this class of people is the target of the elitist agenda. More than half of my pod of 36 are on drugs. Like chicks frantically begging the mother bird for worms they make a fuss in the nest and open their mouths 3 times a day when the nurse comes by. They have animations or gesticulations that are an amalgamation of video, film, cartoon, and video game characters. Their entire thought processes are bought and paid for. Most grew up in welfare dependent environments. Then government got them addicted to narcotics, base level sustenance or below and then changed the funding rules. Now they had their addicts they supplied their alternative. Dope, gangs, sex, and violence. There are kids here for murder with bullet holes in their body happy to be in jail the rest of their life because they would surely be dead by now. They kill to live in a kill or be killed life. Politicians work every experiment upon them and they are used as the example through propaganda to lose our guns, and other intelligent rights. Perhaps every convenience comes with a price. Maybe mulling over each thought on the vigorous washboard of reason is better for us than the easy spin cycle.
