ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL WEAPONS OUR ADVERSRIES HAVE IS TO DEMORALIZE US, AND TO MAKE US FEEL SMALL, WORTHLESS, AND INSIGNIFICANT

SO THAT YOU WILL BE WILLING TO ALLOW YOUR "LESSERS" TO MANIPULATE YOU AND TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOU

LOWER YOUR SELF ESTEEM TO THE POINT WHERE IT SEEMS EASIER TO JUST GIVE UP AND GIVE IN THAN IT DOES TO CONTINUE EVER ONWARD, WITH "THE GOOD FIGHT"

YOUR ENEMIES WANT YOU TO FEEL UNDESERVING AND EVEN TO BE ASHAMED OF THE FACT THAT YOU MAY BE MORE MATERIALLY BLESSED THAN THOSE AROUND YOU

THOSE WHO CONTROL THE MESSAGING AND NARRATIVE CREATION WILL BE SURE TO REMIND YOU OVER AND OVER AGAIN ABOUT YOUR PROPER PLACE AS A COG IN THE WHEEL

GOTTA KNOW YOUR PLACE

GOTTA STAY IN YOUR PLACE IF YOU WANT TO SUCCEED

don't question pretended authority

just shut up, and do what you are told

if this sounds like a renaissance of medieval "religion", with it's numerous inquisitions and heresy of freethinking, well, maybe you have heard of history repeating itself

I recommend that you spend some time studying the information which has been provided under the subject heading of "operant conditioning", because, when these brainwashing methods are continued over time, it can be seen to be little or nothing more than one piece of a much larger nationwide, and indeed, even worldwide, operant conditioning program

one that woiuld make eddie bernays proud. and not taking place by happenstance these persons would make the grand inquisitor, torquemado, proud
