The concept of brainwashing

The mind control is the successful control in the ideas and actions of another person without his / her consent. In general, the term means that the victim give up some of the beliefs and attitudes of political, social, religious and accept the basic ideas contrary. Often used the term (brainwashing) are widely used to refer to a conviction by publicity.

There are a lot of misconceptions about the mind control. Some people believe that mind control efforts include parents in the upbringing of their children according to the criteria of social, cultural, ethical and personal. Some believe it is mind control to use behavior modification techniques to change one's behavior, either through self-discipline or self-suggestion or through workshops and clinics. And others see the ads and sexual seduction are examples of mind control. Is still considered by others as a control in the mind of a woman anesthesia for use during and falling under the influence of anesthesia.

  Some see it appear in the mind control is used when military officers or prison officers techniques that reduce the recruits or prisoners attempted to break the rules and make them more compatible with it. Has been considered by some as a control in the mind of the coaches or administrators patrol the threat of punishment and minimize physical stress or physical exercise, the excess of the trainees in order to break their egos and to instill the principle of team spirit or group identification

Called some of the tactics of some groups of human potential, spiritual and religious groups of recruits or the new age of mind control tactics. Many believe that the victims of kidnapping or terrorist who convert to sympathize with the ideology of the kidnapper are victims of mind control (which is called Stockholm syndrome). Similarly, women who stay with the abuser or an abusive man, often seen as a victim of mind control. Many feel that the messages in the unconscious (Music Mozak) or in advertising or on self-help tapes are a form of mind control.

Many believe it also serve as a control in the mind with laser weapons or radioactive elements or generators audio generators or non-nuclear electromagnetic pulse or microwave emitters of high-energy to disrupt or undermine the people. Many consider that the tactics of "brainwashing" (such as torture, sensory deprivation, etc.) used by the Chinese during the Korean War, as well as Alzombeyin alleged "voodoo" are attempts to control the mind.

Finally, one can not doubt it a clear case of mind control of the ability to hypnosis or electronic programming to someone so that the implementation of the orders against him / her without realizing that under the influence of control behavior.

 The term of this lack of definition is without interest. When you narrow the selection, the first thing you should do is to eliminate - as examples of mind control - those activities that are selected by the person to control his behavior freely. The control of the thoughts and actions of the individual, either through self-discipline or with the help of others, are the subject of an interesting and important, but it does not look like brainwashing or programming people without their consent.

And the use of force or intimidation to coerce or exploit people so they do what is intended of them should not be classified as a mind control. The Inquisition did not succeed in capturing the minds of their victims. Once the direct threat of punishment, the beliefs Alambtzh fade. And you can not control the mind of someone who might run away from you the moment you turn your back to him.

And control over women through the drug so you can rape her is not mind control. The use of an electric detonator to infect people headaches or misled, such is not controlling them. You can not control the thoughts or actions of someone just because you can do what you want him or make him unable to do what he pleases. A key element of mind control involves the control over another person, not just putting out of control, or make him do things without control.

Some of the most popular misconceptions about the mind control originated in fiction such as "Manchurian candidate" Manchuria Candidate where he was the killer until the film programming that responds to the will of the hypnotist and then commits a murder and does not remember anything about it later. There are other books and films depicting hypnosis as a powerful tool enabling the hypnotist sex with a beautiful woman or programmed to be robot works as a courier or a killer, etc.. There is a book that claims "based on a true story," a book: control of Candy Jones (publisher of Playboy in 1976) authored by "the Donald." To be able to use hypnosis as such strong, you need not only to a few of wishful thinking.

And fictional works that use other drugs or electronic devices, including the process of planting the brain, was used to control people's behavior. Of course they prove that the damage in the brain or hypnosis, drugs or electrical stimulation of the brain or neural network can have a causal effect on the ideas and physical movement and behavior. However, the situation of human knowledge under the influence of a chemical or electrical stimulation of the brain to be poorer than that it is impossible to use knowledge and modern technology to do anything approaching this kind of mind control, which was filmed in the work of the imagination.

 We can do things that could predict such as causing the loss of a specific memory or arousal of the desire of certain, but we can not do this in a non-intrusive, or the ability to control a wide range of ideas or movements or actions. It is certainly possible to imagine that we will one day be able to design the device which, if implanted in the brain, it will enable us to control the thoughts and acts through the control by a specific chemical or electrical stimuli specific. Such a device does not exist now and can not be found out in the field of neuroscience. (However, the development of two neuroscientists at Emory University and two of Dr. Roy Bakay and Dr. Phillip Kennedy, a way to transplant the brain-mail, which can be activated through the ideas and this in turn can move a computer index).

 It also appears that there is a growing belief that the U.S. government, through its military branches or agencies like the CIA, using a number of horrible devices aimed at disrupting the brain. There are examples were mentioned, such as laser weapons or radioactive elements or generators audio generators or non-nuclear electromagnetic pulse or microwave emitters with high energy. It is known that government agencies have experimented on human beings to control the mind with the knowledge and without the knowledge of those subjects of study (Schieffelin 1978). Should not claim to describe those who believe they have been victims of mind control experiments without desire as impossible or not included.

Given the nature of the previous practice of unethical by the military and intelligence agencies, then such experiments are not implausible. However, should not be considered such experimental weapons designed to disrupt the operations of the brain as a weapon to control the mind. Is not considered confuse or mislead people in other ways from the ways of weakening through chemicals or electronically is a control that person. To make a person lose control of himself is not the same case, such as control, and there is almost certain that the U.S. government is able to control the mind of any person, although it is clear that many people in many governments Alhthon behind that power.

In any case, some of the allegations made ​​by those who believe they were subjected to control them by these electronic weapons seem reasonable. For example, the belief that the use of radio waves or microwaves to make someone hear the voices against him in particular, seems unlikely. We know that the radio waves and waves of all kinds of frequencies continuously express through our bodies. And why we do run radio or television to hear sounds or see images transmitted through the air is that these devices have receptors that are "translated" in the forms of waves we can hear and see.

 What we know about hearing and vision makes it very unlikely just send a signal to the brain can be "translated" to the voices, images, and cause the person to hear or see anything. Perhaps it may be possible some day to stimulate a specific network of nerve cells electronically or chemically enable the person subject of the experiment to choose specific sounds, or hits to appear in consciousness, but that is not possible today. Even if that is possible, it does not necessarily follow that the person will obey the order to assassinate the President just because he heard a voice asking him to do so. The sounds is one of those things, but the feeling is reached by force to obey them is quite another.

 It seems that there are a number of similarities between those who believe they have been abducted by space aliens (Aleoffo) and those who believe that their minds have been subjected to control by the transplant by the Central Intelligence Agency. So far, however, the group of owners of "minds that have been controlled," they can not understand, "John Mack", a psychiatrist at Harvard University, who claims that the best explanation for the alleged abduction by space aliens (Aleoffo) based on the experiences of abductions by aliens (Aleoffo) and not the imagination or fantasies.

A common complaint of mind control is that they can not get therapists even take it seriously. They say that they can only find therapists want to treat the delusions, not help them to prove they were subjected to mind control experiments by their government. Thus, it is not likely to be "Alzombeyin who have undergone experiences of mind control by the Central Intelligence Agency," accusing the infected delusions planted in them by therapists and abducted from aliens (Aleoffo), because they claim an inability to find therapists dealing with illusions they have seriously. In fact, many of them is convinced that the delusional is treated as part of a conspiracy to cover up the mind control experiments conducted on them.

Some even believed that the false memory syndrome is part of the conspiracy, they claim that the idea of ​​false memories is a conspiracy to prevent people from dealing seriously with the allegations of those who remember now that they were victims of mind control experiments at some time in the past. It is hard to believe that they can not find a wide range of New Age therapists incompetent they are ready to deal with their claims seriously, if they are not ready to claim they have been victims of such experiments themselves.

 Note there is light, is the presence of one of the lesser myths about mind control is the idea that subliminal messages are effective controllers of behavior.

 
Despite the widespread belief strongly messages advertising camouflaged on a large scale, the evidence on the effectiveness of large based on anecdotes and scientific studies by the parties concerned so that the search - in vain - for scientific studies that prove that the messages of others heard such as "Thou shalt not steal" or "ascribed this "in the music of" Mozak "significantly reduce employee theft or customers, or subliminal messages that increase sales of snacks in cinemas

Should clarify the above considerations that what many people consider mind control that is best described by another term, such as behavior modification or disable or disabling brain thinking or behavior manipulation, coercion or harassment of reason-mail. Can not turn people into robots now through hypnosis or brain implants. Moreover, it should clarify the status of knowledge in the field of neuroscience and the techniques of effective control of the mind that are likely to be simple to understand and be less understanding of its mechanisms.

Thus, if we restrict the term "mind control" to those cases where the person successfully to control the thoughts or actions of another person without his consent, the preliminary list of examples of what he considered people's mind control is limited to the five items only: the tactics of spiritual and religious and other recruits in the new era, and tactics of husbands who control their wives, and the Stockholm syndrome, and tactics of the so-called brain washing by the investigators on the Chinese American prisoners during the Korean War, and the creation of the alleged Zombeyin in voodoo. However the latter can be rejected where it is based on either fraud or the use of drugs to make people without a will.

- The individual who terrorized by the husband or wife or lover, do not be a victim of mind control, but be a victim of fear and violence. However, it seems that there are many cases where the person is milled to the right of a loving partner / life partner, and truly believed that the batsman reciprocated love. And remain vulnerable to hit the victim again and again, not because the victim fears that he would do if the abuser to leave, but because the victim does not really want to leave. But perhaps the victim does not want to leave it or it depends entirely on the beloved / batsman. It remains only for the victim as it does not have anywhere else to go, but the victim needs the aggressor and then it remains entirely dependent on the abuser. And if he a man to underestimate a woman to a state of total dependency, it can control.

- Is it correct to say that he took control of the mind? , And to what extent - if any - can batsman robbed of free will of his victim? So that it can limit their options and have to stay with him is the only option that you know the victim. What is the probability of this happening? It seems likely that they will limit their own choices by rationalizing his behavior and convince themselves that things will get better or that it is really not that bad. If the man did not use brute force or intimidation to violence to keep the woman beside him, then if they stayed, it may be because the options taken in the past, every time they are attacked, they choose to stay. Perhaps accustomed to is the use of modern and gentle with her tempting to persuade them not to leave, but at some point during the relationship is to be free to reject it.

 - In contrast to this, the relationship based on intimidation, violence and mind control are not clear. And women that fall under the influence of hitter, do not be a victim of mind control, but they are a victim of bad choices private. This does not mean that we should not sympathize with her ​​plight or assistance that you want. Where they are in this situation because of bad luck and bad choices because of a series, not because of mind control or the assumption that these women are not mentally ill. In this case it is natural that her man is not to reduce its ability to free choice. The attacker takes advantage of this situation, but does not create.

 Allows investigators to the kidnappers and recruits the development of a spiritual or religious groups or groups of personal growth. The different tactics recruits differ materially from those belonging to the hijackers or investigators. The recruits do not generally arrest or abduction of soldiers, not knowing about them because they use torture as a means of conversion model. This raises the question of whether to control their victims without their consent. Some recruits do not really victims of mind control, but their desire to be members of their communities. Similarly, should not be considered as many recruits in the mainstream religions are victims of mind control.

Is not considered to change the basic features of a person, and have him act in ways contradictory patterns of behavior for life, and have him change his beliefs and core values, not necessarily mind control. Where it depends on how the activity of the person to participate in its transformation. Perhaps you and I think that anyone who goes out of his mind to join the Scientology sect, are not beliefs of Jehovah's Witnesses or brothers Jim Roberts' beliefs and behaviors of madness "more aggressive than those followed by the power of millions of religious adherents who accepted the principal to engage in it.

It seems that some of the recruits in the currents of non-major religions have been washing their brains and control to the extent that they are doing a great evil to themselves or others at the request of their leader, including murder and suicide. And become some of these recruits in a state of extreme vulnerability when they are recruited in order to benefit from recruiters these gaps in them. Has become of these recruits confused or without foundation because of difficulties in the transition of regular (such as students new college), and are subjected to living conditions difficult (such as failure in school or get a new job), or even the tragic events of personal (such as death of close friends or dear), or world events (such as war or terrorism). Some may develop a mental illness or emotional disorder or major depression because of poor use of drugs or exposure to abuse at the hands of others, etc., but will not be for the benefit of the community to recruit actively emotionally disturbed as the one in the worship of certain recruits.

Religious communities and ideologies and practices are complex, so find a mentally disturbed or emotionally difficult to absorb. These are structures that allow religious groups to control the person. And religious communities do not want people who are difficult to control them.

- While some recruits may be very vulnerable to those who want to control their thoughts and actions, the recruits are looking for people who can Adavohm. The recruiter said the above-mentioned also that the religious communities of people looking for the powerful and intelligent and idealistic and also looking for the rich, regardless of their mental

The goal is to make the recruits are weak, to get them to give up any control of their thoughts on the self and actions. The goal is to make community members feel that they are passengers on board a ship without a rudder in the stormy sea. The recruiter or cult leader is holding Baldfah is the only one who can bring the ship to safety.

 And techniques available to manipulate the weak are too many and one of them is to give them the love they feel they do not get it anywhere else, and convince them that it is through them and through their communities will be able to find what they are looking for, even if they have not got evidence that they are looking for anything , as well as convince them that they trust the leader and commander trusts them, and convince them that their friends and their families from outside the group are a hindrance to their salvation.

 Through the isolation, can only give them what they need, and pouring love them, and that the commander is only loves them and that he was ready to die for them, so why not die for the leader? But love alone is what can be the leader to win them over. The fear is a great motivator, recruiter where it is feared that if left it will collapse, and his fear that if he did not cooperate he would be subjected to trial, and his fear that he can not do so alone in this miserable world. Should be the leader that affects the recruiter paranoid.

 And love and fear might not be are sufficient, but must be used "Altznep" also by downloading recruits sins of many, making them want to clean up their ideas, and remind them that they do not make up something on their own, but consider with the leader and God (or some authorities or technologies) are all , and make them despise themselves so that they can be selfless, Athlon selfless, and that they belong to the commander, and made them feel no sense of self, and convince them that the ideal is to renounce self, and keep up the pressure relentlessly, and humiliate them from time to time, and then they will feel that they must humiliate themselves, and control what they hear and read and see, and repeat the messages on the eyes and ears.

And gradually get them to make commitments in a small beginning to the market share leader on all their property and their bodies and their lives. Do not forget the commander to give them the drugs, the starve them, or ask them to meditate or dance or chant for hours until they believe that they are subject to a kind of spiritual experiences, and make them believe that "the leader is the God who made ​​them feel very good condition," which makes them not want to abandon it , and that they did not feel well-being before that at all, and that despite the existence of hell in the sense of the outside, the inside is their paradise.

What is the religion that does not use "Altznep" and intimidation to get people to clean up their ideas? Even some therapists use similar methods to control their patients, and feed on the weak, and demand complete loyalty and trust as the price of hope and healing. Often segregated Fraúshm from their loved ones and friends, as have their customers and are trying to control them. The methods vary greatly recruits. Will be recruits and adherents of religions and patients willing to be victims? How can we differentiate between a willing victim of the unwilling victim of others? If we can not do that, then we can not distinguish true cases of mind control.

Does not use recruiters and manipulators to control the mind of others but if they deprive their victims of their own free will. It could be argued that someone had been deprived of free will by another person only if such person providing the other causal factor is irresistible. How can we prove that the behavior of an individual is the result of orders made ​​irresistible by his personal religious or spiritual leadership? , Not enough to say that irrational behavior proves that the free will of the people had been stolen from him. It may be irrational abandonment of the individual for all his property, or to devote all his time and strength to meet the wishes of the religious leader or attempt suicide or planting bombs, toxic in the subway because it is so, but how can we justify the claim of such acts are irrational as acts issued by the robots without the mind ? , And we all know that the more bizarre acts and inhumane and irrational by the recruits is done freely and knowingly and happily. Is, perhaps, by people who are destroyers of minds, or crazy. In both cases, such people not be victims of mind control.

Should not be left to consider the actions of the hijackers, investigators such as acts of systematic isolation and control of sensory input and torture. Can we, this means erasing the cerebral cortex and write our own it? Can we delete the old patterns and implant new patterns of thought and behavior in our victims? And should be noted first that not every person was abducted, he feels love or affection towards his captors. It is possible to reach some of those abducted or detained to a state of complete subordination to their tormentors. Where placed in a position similar to that in infancy and start uniting with their tormentors as much as unite the baby with the person who fed and provided him with comfort. There is also a strange charm of most of us possesses at intimidation.

We are afraid of them and hate them, but often what we want to join the Asapthm and to be protected by them. It does not seem likely that people who fall in love with their captors, or who act against their country under torture, are victims of mind control. There are certainly some explanations about why some people acted like I did, "Patricia Hearst," Why not become others in similar circumstances, such as "Tanya." It is doubtful that mind control should play more of a role in the interpretation. Where some women are attracted to gangsters, but have to have few opportunities to interact with them. We do not need to return to the control of the mind to explain why courted "Patricia Hearst" strongly with one of her captors terrorists. Perhaps I thought that it must do so even survive, and perhaps may also be attracted to him really. Who knows? Perhaps the mind control is the best defense of the "change of opinion about the life of crime" when faced with charges of bank robberies and murder charges.

Finally ... Is believed widely that the Chinese have succeeded in washing the brains of American prisoners of war during the Korean War, but the evidence of the success of their methods of torture, isolation, sensory deprivation and so on to control the minds of their captives is not present. There are very few (22 of 4500 or 0.5%) of those captured by the Chinese returned to the other side (Sutherland 1979, p. 114).

And returns the myth of the success of the Chinese mainly to the work of "Edward Hunter," who was brainwashed in Red China, a book "The destruction of injury to the minds of men" (New York: Press, Vanguard, in 1951), which is still referred to by those who believe that the tactics of mind control is the source of great danger these days. Recently, the Central Intelligence Agency published most of the "Hunter" in its efforts to consolidate the hatred of the North Koreans and Communist and explain why not hate some American soldiers of the enemy, and to maximize their role by saying that they are they must develop techniques brainwashing in order to keep up with the enemy "(Sutherland 1979, p. 114).

It seems if that if we know the mind control Ktgm successful in the ideas and actions of others without their consent, then the mind control is found only in the work of the imagination. Unfortunately, this does not mean it always will run on such lines.
