Mind control at the most basic level it is just the constant repetition of a ‘fact’ that establishes itself. It’s common practice in an abusive relationship.
Call a person clumsy enough times and you’ll have a clumsy person. They will even take on the mantle and tell others ‘I tend to be clumsy.’ N Korea uses this constantly with pictures of the leader everywhere and everyone conditioned to say the mantra ‘Dear Leader, God of the Kingdom’ vocally everytime they see his face.
In effect, people can be conditioned.
It’s basic human programming. Which isn’t all bad, if you want to know how to swim or drive a car then you better get used to getting some muscle memory skills programmed into the ole noggin. Practice equals perfection and all that.
But there’s a fine line between learning and manipulation.
And it comes down to thought control.
In any pursuit of the sciences, you’ll be taught how to think, logically and critically. You’ll forever be encouraged to question everything. Have a mind capable of critical thinking.
Conversely, religion tells you what to think and discourages questions. Hides behind the ‘have faith, don’t question the Lord will’ type stuff.
And cults… of course have their own language. Some even print whole dictionaries of their unique terms.
This controlling the language is a great way to program people. Language has a power over how we think that is uncanny and when someone controls the language you use… your being controlled.
Some cult languages even have specific rules against critical thought.
Critical thought is vital to human development. But those in power would prefer we don’t have bad thoughts, we should all be happy followers… right?
Yes… if your in a cult.
No… if you have half a brain.
Don’t let people control you or the language you use.
Freedom of speech means you can say what you want, even if it’s critical.
Freedom of religion means you can believe or not, cults that practice disconnection for leavers are called cults for a reason.
Freedom of thought is a human right and all religions and especially cults tread on thin ice here with telling folks what to think.
