RE: Hacking the human mind and behavior: Part 2 - Big data psychological profiling and manipulation of the individual and the masses
Great post!
"Furthermore, most people not only don't care about all the information that these behemoth intelligence agency front companies capture about them..."
Most of the populace is too busy trying to make ends meet, so I don't really blame them. Worrying about all this shit just adds extra stress to an already stressful life, so most people just say 'fuck it,' and go about their lives.
Can you really blame them?
Thanks a lot.. To be honest, I do blame the sheeple to the degree that they are wilfully and blatantly ignorant as well as passively supportive of the societal destruction that is going on around them. I certainly don't blame those that "never got the memo," but for those that did get it and fully ignored it, the consequences are also partially their doing. This is exactly the type of mindless societal behavior that is bringing us to the doorstep of our doom.
Let's take a slightly different example to better illustrate the point. Let's assume the government allows people to vote on whether the force vaccinations on people like in California. If the people vote for violating the personal sovereignty of others, who's ultimately responsible for the consequences? Is it the politicians that wrote up the bill and pushed it along with the pharma companies paying them off under the table, or is it the ill-informed idiots that took no responsibility for the consequences, voted for it, and thereby indirectly forced everyone else to be victims to it?.. I think it's both.
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing" - Edmund Burke
The entire Western world is based on the violation of the sovereignty of others peoples and nations. The USA and Britain didn't get to where they are today by being nice. I know this is going to sound very pessimistic, but I believe that certain cycles are unavoidable, and the present trajectory of destruction may in fact be unavoidable, even necessary for something else to emerge.
Sadly, this is the case across the entire world and not just in Western societies, but this was never because the core of Western thinking and philosophy ever truly endorsed it, but because the typical psychopaths got in control of key Western institutions.
It may be that certain cycles are unavoidable, but I personally think this is a bit of a cheap excuse. It's basically saying that either it's simply fate or it's somehow cyclically required to an uncontrollable degree rather than our collective fault for allowing these evils to metastisize in our society. If it's our collective fault then it means that we as a society and individually must be far more vigilant and responsible to stop such evils in the future before they fully manifest.
There is no collective. There is only people, and each of those people's idea of the collective is why many people abnegate their personal responsibility to conform to what they think the collective is doing.
This is why propaganda and censorship is so useful to those that would control society, and exactly why we bear personal responsibility regardless of what anyone else does. We aren't--ever--just following orders. We are always acting on our personal responsibility.
If you are allowing some evil to occur because it's too big for you to oppose alone, you are why it's too big to fight alone.
This is why I haven't had a bank account in almost 10 years. I am opposed to the financial control society is subject to, and I am waging war on the banksters by not feeding them.
I am winning.
Thanks very much for making this comment. You are absolutely correct. All the social media distraction (including Steemit) is ultimately about getting people to forget their individual responsibility as human beings and instead clamor for herd approval. As long as the social manipulators can place themselves as the key Pied Pipers in social media and alternative truth communities, the social media construct is designed as a Pavlovian system to reinforce staying with the common / popular narratives and actions.
It is our individual responsibility to break ranks and oppose all of these herd-based systems and controls. This is ultimately why the societal controllers hate genuine religion and spirituality. They hate that people hold onto individual ethical and moral behavior that requires them to do the right thing regardless of the herd. It also requires them to stand up to and call out lies and deception. It throws a wrench into their societal machinery designed to keep the sheeple in line. Every time we peacefully disobey and stand up for the real truth and action and not some bogus, socially engineered media or alternative media version of it (and there is a hell of a lot of this out there now), we are winning. We are creating new examples for others to follow and we are breaking the manipulators control on the masses.
You are correct, you are winning. Keep it up. We need more examples like yours to break the machinery of control.
Do you believe the “votes” that occur are real & accurate? I don’t
I think it is very telling that Steemit removed that feature that would tell you how many people had viewed your post. With this, you could get a sense for how many upvotes that you should roughly have. Steemit is pretty much bot-led at this point (by design in my view) and many of the biggest whales are fed by these. If you aren't in that food chain, you are going nowhere in terms of score and Steem earnings.
I agree with this 👆
But I was referring to current government voting 😂
Oops!.. Without an incredibly transparent, secure, and well audited voting system, I don't trust any government votes either. Since the US doesn't have that, I agree.
