POPSTorah Borntrager on "how I escaped the Amish" A young woman who was raised Amish, but who left the community at age 15, tells her story. This is an interview by Tim Ferris (the time-management guru) -- not what I expected to see at his blog at all, but I assume it's genuine.

POPSAnother Story of Religious Child Abuse More bone headed tales of misguided cult followers believing muttering pleas to their invisible friend will magically cure disease. Unfortunately, in this case, the recipient of the "prayer treatment" died for no reason. And because of religious brainwashing the 16 year old agreed to this non-treatment. Sad indeed.

POPSMcCain 34 years ago wrote: The anti-war movement and a peoples choice can and will be circumvented by educating the soldiers, limiting media access and control of what can be said and printed, as a matter of national security. They have only your best interest in mind. FOCKS NEWS, ABC<NBC<CBS and the rest of them corporate liars and deceivers. Had Hitler this kind of propaganda machine, we all would speak German.

POPSBrian Gerrish: Common Purpose Infiltrators Brian discovered the hidden machinations of CP in Plymouth England some time ago. CP influence is seen in force throughout the BBC, Local Councils, Police, Schools, National Health Service, and many government agencies that run towns in the UK. Leading toward ever closer union, it is a subversive way to set up new leaders of the coming Totalitarian Socialist State (The European Union). Bringing people in through ‘Self Improvement’ courses, the talented are picked and indoctrinated in CP ideology. Destined to break up traditional viewpoints it is a very effective and hidden tool of manipulators behind the scenes. Many CP trained ‘leaders’ are well aware of the true purpose of the organization, most are not but are serving the goal as a result of their retraining in the CP mode of thinking. Brainwashing, a cult, a subversive organization, are terms readily applied to the methods and organization of the group.

POPSAmericans Getting Dumber Not only Americans are getting dumber. In Europe the same process started also. Mainly evoked by brainwashing media like tv. About seven years ago somebody wrote on the Internet: "there will come a time where humanty will be split in on-liners and off-liners. The on-liners will have all the knowledge, the off-liners non. I think it's already happening.

POPSAustralian Guantanamo Prisoner released How many supposed al Qaida members in Afghanistan are Mujahideen fighters that were defending Afghanistan against the Soviet Union with US, and CIA covert support? When The US went into Afghanistan they knew they had plenty of 'Live' bait. I keep wondering ow someone can be 'convicted' at a trial with no 'witnesses'. The Prisoners at Guantanamo can become anything the US Authorities want them to be. Of course what wasn't supposed to be torture wasn't brainwashing. The option was clear. You don't get out until you plead guilty.

POPS23 Tools To Brainwash and Influence People Through Media
7. Keep people passive. Encourage the Couch Potato Alpha Wave Escape Plan as the healing elixir for all that ails. 8. Don’t make people think. Their days are hard enough as is. Bypass the need for opinion making by giving people ready-made opinions. Do it as though you don’t have a conscience – they are probably too stupid to make their own decisions anyway. 9. Ensure that there are no ongoing storylines with meaning or purpose beyond immediate sensory stimulation. Avoid universal themes as much as possible. Make absolutely certain there is no cultural, societal or global story or mythology present that conflicts with the myths of comfort and consumption. 10. Never encourage responsibility, or so much as suggest that humans could be involved in co-creating their future and the realities in which they reside. 11. Encourage group-sanctioned individuality only. By making ‘individuality” the new conformity you are generating a powerful illusion of free choice. 12. Sensationa

POPSThe Sneaky Chef-Getting kids to eat vegetables
I've heard Kids aren't born hating any foods, they 'learn' to dislike certain foods. Two books recently published sugest pureed foods mixed with 'kid's' meals can be a solution. I wondered what a 'kid's' meal was supposed to be, and whether the books were one means of countering the brainwashing children recieve during advertisments for snack foods, fast foods, candy, and peer group pressure. Another point is that children have a sense of taste that is more sensitive, e.g. very few children can handle chilli. Children can be introduced early to a healthy diet, and the definition of 'kid's' meal can be something not only nutritious, but one where the children are aware ofwhat they are eating, and it's value. The biggest problem can be the introduction of eating patterns, at 4's when children have learned to say no. I'm sure one of the problems can be giving them ultimatums, and they decide to be contrary for it's own sake. Perhaps they can be shown eating can be a discovery.
