For the first time, tiny artificial motors have voyaged through the body of a living animal, successfully delivering a cargo of nanoparticles directly into the stomach wall. Although it will still be many years before we see microscopic machines scurrying around our own bodies and carrying out various medical tasks, the brains behind the current study see this as a significant step towards this ultimate goal.

Instead of trying to justify your single status to your crotchety aunt, there’s also another option—downloading an Invisible Boyfriend or Girlfriend, which launched today from private to public beta.

Yep, we’re for real. The apps, founded by St. Louis’s Matthew Homann and Kyle Tabor, let users pay for “believable social proof” that they’re in a relationship. They generate everything from photos and meet-cutes to text messages and actual voicemails—all of them totally fake, but also totally realistic.

“It really helps people tell a better story about a relationship they’re not in,” Mr. Homann told Betabeat.

President’s State of the Union Address…

 

 

lie lie lie… economy heartbreaking story lie lie lie…

 

we need affordable, high-quality childcare more than ever. It’s not a nice-to-have — it’s a must-have. It’s time we stop treating childcare as a side issue, or a women’s issue, and treat it like the national economic priority that it is for all of us. And that’s why my plan will make quality childcare more available, and more affordable, for every middle-class and low-income family with young children in America

 

He’s going to try to make community colleges freee…  at the cost to the taxpayer, of course.  They’re not FREE, after all.

 

In fact, estimates are already in that it’ll likely cost us 300 BILLION dollars over ten years.

 

Oh he’s also saying that we need to help veterans get better jobs.

 

I agree wit that, but maybe he can talk about doing something for the millions of vets living on the streets in abject poverty?

 

Homelessness is not JUST a vet problem, but it IS a problem.

 

Nothing has been done to help them, or even proposed.

 

Unless you count making it illegal to feed the homeless or to even BE homeless.  That solves things, right?

 

 

He talked about trade deals, and I wanted to make sure to mention them, because on Friday we’ll be discussing some of those trade deals that are being proposed and worked on, including the Trans Pacific Partnership and  Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership

 

 

Those things are nightmares, truly the stuff that evil banksters and elite power mongers love.

 

 

I intend to protect a free and open internet, extend its reach to every classroom, and every community, and help folks build the fastest networks, so that the next generation of digital innovators and entrepreneurs have the platform to keep reshaping our world.

 

I will be getting into this part of things in a bit, in the next part of the show.  I’ll be talking some about the internet, and what we’ve got coming down the pipeline at us all.

 

Let’s see….  lie lie lie… foreign policy and lie lie and bull crap and lie…

 

Another part that  I will be getting into in a little bit…

 

No foreign nation, no hacker, should be able to shut down our networks, steal our trade secrets, or invade the privacy of American families, especially our kids. We are making sure our government integrates intelligence to combat cyber threats, just as we have done to combat terrorism. And tonight, I urge this Congress to finally pass the legislation we need to better meet the evolving threat of cyber-attacks, combat identity theft, and protect our children’s information.

 

Notice how he worded things there?  No “foreign” nation.

 

That doesn’t mean our own, yeah?  No lie there.  Listen to the words closely.

 

That’s how propaganda works.

 

 

 

lie lie propaganda climate change lie lie lie

 

 

 

I want our actions to tell every child, in every neighborhood: your life matters, and we are as committed to improving your life chances as we are for our own kids.

 

 

While putting you and YOUR children even deper into debt than you’d ever imagine.

 

It’s up to about 56,000 for our grandkids at this point.

 

 

 

and finally… there’s this little gem…

 

Tonight, I’m launching a new Precision Medicine Initiative to bring us closer to curing diseases like cancer and diabetes — and to give all of us access to the personalized information we need to keep ourselves and our families healthier.

 

 

You mean the things tha have already been known to be curable for years now? And yet, we’re told that there’s nothing that can be done for them?

 

yeah.  Those.

 

Gotta love it.

 
There are truly a lot of people out there that are “out to get us” when it comes to the internet and our cyber security.

First, there are hackers…

Then there are trolls…

Then there are those that work for different organizations that try to collect data…

Then there are the different programs and apps that people use.

Take the changes on Facebook as of January 1st…

(Fox News Facebook Privacy audio)

Surveys…

NSA Prism project…

Net Neutrality

What is it?

What does it mean?

Why regulate it? Obama is trying…

Smaller ISPs shutting down because of it…

Speaking of crazy propositions of our dear leader…

College for free?

Yeah, we saw similar ideas in healthcare, eh?

“Hey guys, we messed up healthcare a lot! Let’s go for COLLEGES next! yeah!”

Hooraaaayyyy for common core in the college classrooms!

I mean, really, how much further can we, the taxpayer, be stretched?

We’re already being drawn and quartered, I guess being put on the rack is next.

So, is he serious? Or is just a bit of propaganda?

Propaganda…

Speaking of propaganda…

Let’s get into the propaganda machine, the great devilish mechanism we call the Media.

Notice I just said Media. It’s not just the lamestream media that has a problem being a propaganda machine.. it’s all media. Alternative included.

Listen… here’s the basic thing I can tell you. The MOST basic.

Every advertisement you see? that’s propaganda.

I’m going to teach you how to recognize propaganda when you see or hear it, and this is really important information, guys. This is THE tool that you will be able to use to understand when you are being programmed, and HOW.

Ready?

Here we go…

The first type of propaganda is Namecalling. Also known as stereotyping.

They use this to discredit people, or other products, and will also use it to dismiss their credibility without actually giving any evidence of their wrongdoing.

“Treehugger, flaming liberal, conspiracy theorist, crazy,” these are just a couple of examples.

The next type is “glitter grammar”.

They will use this type to praise something, with generalities, wtiout actually using or citing examples of WHY it is a good thing.

“Values, heart, home cooked, from scratch, wonderful, the best thing since sliced bread…” Just to naem a few examples.

Testimonial type is the next on tap.

This one you’re probably very familiar with, and this is the type of thing that I stand up against a lot, because this is where the so-called EXPERTS are lined up.

They will use this type of thing by saying, “Oh listen, 9 out of 10 dentists agree that fluoride is good for your teeth” without giving you any of the facts.

People are VERY attracted to the “idea of something” when there are those in authoritative positions telling them that this is the right way to go.

Heck, most churches are great at this thing. I don’t know about you, but in every church I went to, there was a call for “testimonials” at the end of every sermon. People would ge tup at the pulpit and go on about their personal experiences, but that has nothing to do with YOU or YOUR personal experiences.

Next is called Transfer.

This is almost exclusively used in regards to institutions and corporations, whereas testimonials can be used to up-braid people or small groups.

Transfer is the power of association.

The most common way this one is used is to talk about “studies” and “surveys”.

“a study released shows that drinking fluoride improves your teeth, makes your bones strong and is shown to reverse the effects of aging in field mice with a limp.”

But no reference to the study is ever shown.

This is a “street cred” type of situation.

The next one is Plainfolks. Yes, you heard that right. That is the actual name for it. Plainfolks propaganda is where they will use “just every day people” to put forward an idea or agenda.

You see this with the whole false flagging going on.

The crisis actors? those would be a type of plainfolks propaganda.

You get fooled into thinking that the “right way to think” is what the every day people have to say. “It’s just the right thing to do.”

“it’s just common sense! Why doesn’t anyone in government see this? They don’t understand thing s like you and I do. You should elect me.”

Then, there’s the good old fashioned (notice my wording there? hah) bandwagon approach.

This type of propaganda is used to get people on board an idea or agenda by saying things like, “everyone is doing it!” “Red is the new black!” “You know that everyone is already doing this diet, why aren’t you?”

Public opinion is HUGE business, whether its in regards to corporations, individuals or governments.

They are all about changing the public opinion about a thing or an idea. They are masters of “the Spin”.

Something that most people do not realize (and I would go so far as to say probably the vast majority) si that when you have a thought or do an action, this thought or action has been filtered through a VAST system of things inside of you.

They are seen through the lenses of EVERYTHING that you have gone through in your life, and everything that you have been exposed to.

The spin doctors use tricks like flashy images and colors, sounds and lights, to put you into a subtle hypnotic state, when you look at advertising, when you watch TV or even look at the internet.

You go to a web page and you think that it has all just been set up to make things look nice.

But did you know, for example, that it is VERY well known in the internet industry that if you set certain things in certain places on the page, the person looking at it will respond in predetermined ways?

It’s true. I used to do it for a living, I know how it works. There are so-called “heat maps” that teach webmasters exactly how to place things, and with exactly the right colors and words to match the response that you want to have the viewer have.

For instance, let’s say that you are a politician, and youre running on a campaign of reform and change.

What will you do?

You’ll have a white background on the website, with red colors in slowing blocks at eye level when a person visits your page, because that color commands attention and they will take whatever you have to “say” (in the form of writing) seriously.

Blue colors make people calmer, and will make them more likely to buy things, as well as oranges or golds.

Folks, even going to the grocery store has it in the music they play. The music choices are VERY carefully selected to make people more likely to hang around longer, therefore making you purchase more items.

And, guys, this is just the STRAIGHTFORWARD propaganda types and things that are used against you.

This is not even getting into the more subtle things like neuro linguistic programming, sound frequencies and visual frequencies that are designed to entrain your brain into thinking or following a certain thing or agenda.

Let me get a little into NLP with you guys. This one is really big, because a LOT, and I do mean a LOT of people use it against you.

And you don’t even know it.

You’ll need to listen to this part really well, because it is important, okay?

NLP is a system that is designed to work with the way that human brains process information.

Sometimes it is used to convey feelings of happiness and relaxation and that is okay.

Sometimes it’s for darker purposes.

As I alluded to earlier, your thoughts and actions are done through a filter of the brain, and NLP essentially “programs” that filter to react in ways that the person using it against you wants it to do.

It’s done through a process of embedding commands within phrases or paragraphs of words, and is sometimes, though not always, combined with gestures of the hands or movements of the body.

Commands will be embedded in words or phrases and will be “triggered” by other words, phrases or hand gestures. It’s really easy to do.

These commands, like happiness and relaxation, are done automatically by your subconscious, okay?

Did you notice what i did there? I am willing to bet that, for a moment, at least, you felt a feeling of happiness and relaxation wash through you.

I used NLP on you, and it was that easy to do.

Here’s what I did.

I used the phrases, “Happiness and relaxation” as the “command” that I wanted you to follow through with.

I “anchored” the command to my use of the word “okay”, with that particular inflection.

This is just a simple example, and it goes a lot deeper, and a lot more powerfully than what I did there, but you get the idea, i am sure.

I was trained in NLP when working as a corporate boy. I was sent to many training programs while in management, so that I could “help lead the team in the right direction.” They would ask me to use it against the employees as i spoke to them during the day, to keep them happy and satisfied with their jobs, to keep them more productive and efficient and so on.

I didn’t care too much for it, and I still don’t like to use it, but because I was trained in it, I have an easy time seeing when people are using it against others and I’m not as susceptible to it. I’m grateful for that, at least.

But you see folks these are just a COUPLE of examples of how propaganda is used against us, every moment of every day.

You think you have free will over everything that you do, but you don’t. Not really. It’s free will limited and filtered through the programming that you’ve received since the moment you arrived on this planet.

I’m going to get into some specific examples of propaganda here.

A recent example is one that I talked about in a previous show. This had to do with Fox news having an “expert” on their broadcast, claiming that Birmingham UK was a Muslim filled no go zone.

It’s a perfect example of the “testimonial” type of propaganda. The expert comes on, makes a claim, and people believe it and fall in line like good little minions because the guy in the lab coat with the letters behind his name said it is true.

It falls right into the case that Fox news argued and WON before an appeals court, in their claim that they had legal and constitutional right to lie to their watchers.

“Fox lawyers argued it was their first amendment right to report false information. In a six-page written decision, the Court of Appeals decided the FCC’s position against news distortion is only a “policy,” not a “law, rule, or regulation.”

This is how they manipulate us, and the government doesn’t stand against it.

This is how we all get played, when we aren’t looking at EVERYTHING going on around us.

Troll handbook…

Sock puppets…

Cointel Pro and Psyops…

ALL mainstream outlets, and even a lot of “alternative” outlets lie.

We have all of these false flags going on, from the Aurora shootings to the Paris attacks, and each one of them is driven by propaganda.

We have the protests going on in America, and each of them is being driven by propaganda.

There are DEEP DEEP agendas with all of this, people, there really are.

I mean, do you really think that your media outlets are all individuals sitting at the desk, reading something that they wrote?

Wrong.

Here’s an example…

(conan o’brien clip)

It is ALL scripted. It is ALL lies. It is all Hollywood smoke and mirrors.
And you are getting played. I am getting played. WE are getting played, and it really pisses me off.

Social norms and bias as a way of programming…

A form of social change that they are trying to enact is the idea that attitudes follow behavior.

Most people think that people’s attitudes about things need to be changed in order to get them to change their behavior, but, what social scientists have put forward is that when you change the behavior of someone, their attitude ALSO changes.

So you see them enacting regulations and laws to force people to change their behavior, and that way, they are changing the attitudes of people over time.

It’s subtle, but it works, and they are using it against people.

You can see it in the political correct mindset that they use when it comes to things like radical Islam.

“Oh, you can’t talk about that. You’ll offend the Muslim community by talking about Muslims in that way!”

And, because they are changing the behavior of people, the attitude towards things like radical Islam are softened, changed, made to be the norm.

Social norms is the biggest tool that the agenda pushers use. They LOVE this tool, it is their facvorite one, I think.

Here’s an example of a social norm at work. Buskers, street musicians and performers, will seed money in their containers, so that people who walk by, see it, and think, oh, i will give to that guy too. He’s obviously good. My fellow human beings have said so.

The REALLY good ones will have friends that will once in a while, when crowds are around, walk up and put money in the hat or tin or whatever, so that others can see it happening, and join in.

It’s a perfect example of bandwagon propaganda.

Get involved! Everyone else is doing it! You should too!

Here’s the kicker, though. You might think that most of the people doing these things are trying to make positive changes. Some maybe yes, but certainly not all.

Because here’s the truth about human beings. Whatever you see other people doing, you’re likely going to do it too. And if they push the negative agendas, you’re going to ACT negatively, because that is what is being reinforced.

Thank you for listening!  Please comment below!
