6 Brainwashing techniques they're using on you right now
#6. Chanting Slogans
Every cult leader, drill sergeant, self-help guru and politician knows that if you want to quiet all of those pesky doubting thoughts in a crowd, get them to chant a repetitive phrase or slogan. Those are referred to as thought-stopping techniques, because for better or worse, they do exactly that.
Why It Works: The "Analytical" part of your brain and the "Repetitive Task" part tend to operate in separate rooms. But you didn't need an expert to tell you that. You know you can't solve a complex logic puzzle if I force you to scream the chorus to that Chumbawamba song over and over again while you're doing it. Try it.

Taking Liberties
"A documentary about the prolific nature of the statutes that Blair (AKA Bliar)'s government have introduced over the past decade, that not only contradict what Blair promised the British People in his campaign for the Premiership at the 1997 election, but more worryingly, contravene our human rights and our civil liberties. this film is both hilarious and terrifying" Helen Clifton.

2012: Science or superstition Trailer
On December 21st, 2012, the "Long Count" of the ancient Mayan Calendar comes to an abrupt end, finishing off a grand cycle that spans 5,125 years. Some believe it portends an apocalyptic End Times of earth-shattering cataclysms; others disagree, claiming the date as the start of a new era of enlightenment and advanced human consciousness.
The rising popular interest in the 2012 date is a phenomenon in itself, and may indicate a growing awareness that major changes are rapidly taking place in the world. With natural disasters occurring more frequently, and especially in the face of a deepening financial crisis, it appears quite possible that we are heading for turbulent times in the next four years. But alongside these dark scenarios, many are also experiencing profound synchronicities and heightened intuitions, suggesting a powerful shift rising up in the human psyche.
Is the 2012 transformation merely an archeological myth? Or is it a scientific reality, manifesting before our eyes? The new documentary film 2012: Science or Superstition explores these questions, probing deep into the facts and philosophies behind the approaching Mayan climax. Released by The Disinformation Company, the film lives up to the label's reputation for objective, challenging inquiry. A broad range of scholars and authors are featured in exclusive interviews, including Graham Hancock, John Major Jenkins, Alberto Villoldo, astronomer Anthony Aveni, and Daniel Pinchbeck. The film is slated to hit the screens later this year – on December 21st, to be exact.

THE MULTICULTURAL... Now that we've found the internet...
Connected all are we; in our inhibited and ego blocked levels of consciousness to the super conscious; in our alien DNA to Mitochondrial Eve; and now our many electronic devices to the internet.
Advancing technology across culture, building constantly on the platforms of desk-top publishing and e commerce; soon we can all write, record, produce, publish and distribute from anywhere, everywhere, anytime, all the time. What will we do with that? Share? Embrace each other? Confront history? Tell the truth? Save the world? Entertain? Educate? Evolve?
Being so saturated by this wired world of information overload…we are forgetful. When established institutions unearth themselves in corruption, hidden agendas, scandal, and conspiracy in front our very eyes we are paralyzed. As mainstream news media becomes biased and just as credible as every other tabloid and blogger in the bloggersphere we become skeptical. With so many sources mainstream and otherwise, we should be less gullible and more inquisitive. Amongst all the commercialization and watering down of creativity for mass production we just want the fresh, the cool, the entertaining, the truth; to be aware and more cultured.
This is me putting things in perspective … Welcome to The Multicultural.blogspot, a memory dump of all things I’d hate to forget and feel a need to share. Perhaps at the very least I can clear enough memory to process data, spark a debate, stretch my writing muscles, or know what to do with loose change.
