George Carlin: The Illusion of Choice

I cannot believe Prop. 37 was repealed.

God help us.

What a bunch of fucking morons.

This truly heralds the arrival of the Idiocracy referred to in the previous post, a society where people have become so dumbed down by Sodium-Fluoride ("It has what plants crave!"), Genetically Modified food, Chemtrails (a possibility but Chemtrails are most likely not-so-secretly being used as a Geo-Engineering response to Anthropogenic Climate Chaos by reflecting solar radiation back into space) and possibly certain immunizations and God knows what else, that they cannot discern fantasy from reality and vote for more "medicine" when given the opportunity.

Napoleon Bonaparte, aware of the power of mis-information, stated that "when it comes to ruling a people, the pen is mightier than the sword", and this dictum has stood the test of time.

The real trick, as Henry Kissinger put it, is getting people to enslave themselves.

If you want to perpetuate extreme inequality and slavery you have to diminish the intelligence of a people.

How do you accomplish this?

You put all manner or chemicals in the environment that are specifically tailored to diminish cognitive capacity while simultaneously promoting them as being beneficial to health. This also has the auxiliary benefit of creating a health crisis that can be capitalized upon. As with the "War on Crime" and the "War on Drugs",  "The War on Cancer" has proven itself extremely profitable to convince people to focus on addressing the symptoms and not the actual causes. This has the added benefit of diverting inherent human tendencies to strive for an improvement in the Human Condition, for without fabricated crises attention would inevitably fall upon the real issues: a permanent war economy, the rise of Fascism, massive inequality, ecological degradation and the threat of extinction.

It is truly amazing if you can actually grasp what is really going on, extremely sophisticated. But that is the thing, MOST HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS EVEN HAPPENING. And with cognitive impairment, from a subjective perspective, one doesn't really know that their judgment and critical thinking ability is impaired. Add massive amounts of cultural programming via television and all forms of media from the cradle on and voila, you have a large population of self-policing biological robots at your disposal.
