The future is nigh!

[Hell_bound]

What used to dictate our lives in the past is slowly fading into no more...
We are now entering into a new era of a new political and economic system...

Yet there is still much that needs to be done before we are fully enveloped in the new system.

However, there will always be a constant between each rise and fall of a system, and the rise and fall of each system that will follow it...

But this warning you should heed: Be careful who you choose as your master as you go forward in any new system...

It's because the owners of this country[, the world] don't want that. I'm talking about the real owners, now; the big, wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions. Forget the politicians. Politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't. You have no choice. You have owners. They own YOU. They own everything; they own all the important land, they own and control the corporations, they've long since bought and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the State Houses, the City Halls, they've got the judges in their back pocket, and they own all the big media companies so they control just about all the news and information you get to hear.

They've got you by the balls.

They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying to get what they want. Well, we know what they want; they want more for themselves and less for everybody else. But I'll tell you what they don't want: They don't want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don't want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They're not interested in that, that doesn't help them. They don't want people smart enough to sit around the kitchen table to figure out how badly they're getting Fucked by a system that threw them overboard thirty Fucken years ago. They don't want that.

You know what they want? They want OBEDIENT WORKERS. People who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork, and just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shittier jobs with lower pay, longer hours, the reduced benefits, the end of overtime, and the vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it. And now, they're coming for your social security money. They want your Fucken retirement money, they want it back so they can give it to all their criminal friends on Wall Street.

And you know something? They'll get it. They'll get it all from you sooner or later, 'cuz they own this Fucken place. It's a big club, and you ain't in it! You and I are not in The Big Club. By the way, it's the same Big Club they use to beat you over the head with all day long, with what they tell you what to believe. All day long, beating you over the head in their media telling you what to believe, what to think, and what to buy. The table is tilted folks, the game is rigged.

But nobody seems to notice, nobody seems to care...

Good, honest, hard working people-blue collar, white color, it doesn't matter what color shirt you have on-continue to elect these rich Cocksuckers who don't give a Fuck about them. They don't give a Fuck about you. At all.

And nobody seems to notice, nobody seems to care...

That's what the owners count on: the fact that Americans [and the rest of the world] will probably remain willfully ignorant of the big red, white, and blue dick that's being jammed up their assholes every day. Because the owners of this country know the truth:

It's called The American Dream, because you have to be asleep to believe it.

From chaos theory to game theory in explain human behavior and an example of how to utilize such data to control such behavior:

Equilibrium is a great movie

Gun kata ftw!

But, in terms of concept, just go read 1984 instead, it's much better written with less hollywood overtones (none, to be exact ) and no happy endings

I'll have to check it out, never heard of it though.

Yeah, I also thought that was a cool video and a good example of how data from social sciences can be used as a way to control, or manipulate human behavior. In this case though the manipulation was for a positive.

Often though this isn't the case and you can trace back to the late 1800's to the early 1900's (especially in America), where most people who were creating a hybrid socio-psychological-political theory of government, would use such data for a means to control the populous, hide truths, and define reality.

The success of such ideologies still are evident today and have been expanded to almost every part of the world, but again more often then not they are used as a means to control, subdue and enslave the populous.

But I'm glade you enjoyed the video.

LOL Edge, killer video and it brought a smile to my face - especially when they the would yell out "bed and bathrooms" and the people were like... umm... yeah... umm and also with "republicans" - funny, very funny.

Thanks for sharing that.
