So it is not that the lunatics have taken over the asylum; the fact is the damned place was designed and built by them.

[Editor's Note: This is somewhat incoherent but still evocative of our reality.]

By William Whitten

"Psychologically conditioned, the public will accept the stages of the New World Order as if they were self-evident."~HG Wells

"The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. ...We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of.

This is a logical result of the way in which our democratic society is organized. Vast numbers of human beings must cooperate in this manner if they are to live together as a smoothly functioning society. In almost every act of our daily lives, whether in the sphere of politics or business, in our social conduct or our ethical thinking, we are dominated by the relatively small number of persons...who understand the mental processes and social patterns of the masses. It is they who pull the wires which control the public mind." From 'Propaganda' by Edward Bernays

There has never been a person who has been successfully brainwashed who believed he was brainwashed. It lies within the definition of the word itself. This is the crux of the problem that the crux of the matter reveals. The majority of the people are automatons responding to media and social cues and have no control over their destiny.

It is that horror envisioned by the film, "The Invasion of the Body Snatchers."

Any number of 'futurist' stories have visited the main psychological terror of the film. Most of these stories were NOT analogies of the "future" however, but a deeper view of the present that they were told from. For most of
history humankind has in the main, been under the influence of powerful systems of dominance based on psychic as well as physical traumas.

So it is not that the lunatics have taken over the asylum, the fact is the damned place was designed and built by them. This is true as an allegory to the larger society and also literally true as to the history of psychotherapy and mental institutions--a tale of terror in itself. "Mad Doctors" are as real as lobotomies and atomic bombs.

This brings us to an important question:

What does it mean to be well-adjusted in a psychotic society?

"We have now sunk to a depth at which restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men."~George Orwell

In 2008 there was the credit meltdown, which showed purposeful malfeasance. Last year the BP disaster. This year, the Fukushima event, not only does it seem probable that the last two events were orchestrated, but that they are being aggravated by the means taken to control it...like the Corexit aggravation in the Gulf, and the apparent bumbling idiocy going on at Fukushima. That is the same excuse used for 9/11 as well.

This is all the work of maniacs.

That these maniacs have the ability to soothe and sweet talk the peoples of the planet into thinking it is all a matter of happenstance is one of the great wonders of the world.

Is it any wonder? Not unless you are comatose.

"The day of combination is here to stay. Individualism is gone never to return". ~John D. Rockefeller

I have been reading and studying nonstop for 46 years now. I am serious about getting a grasp on it. My step father used to pound into me: "grow up and face 'reality'".

Although I discovered he never really did, I took his words to heart. I have been looking for this so-called 'reality' ever since. It comes in aspects and in varying contexts, and those who see everything in simplistic black-and-white terms are the same ones who go along to get along...

As all of us who take history seriously, I have come to reject 'pop history'--what I have come to term 'Lollipop History'. This paradigm imbues not only film and literature, but academia as well. So I have coined another term, 'Acamaniacs' to describe the mindset of those who never question the ground upon which they walk, taking too much for granted and never digging below the surface of these issues that divide men into camps of True Believers. Dogma is the root of all evil.

"Only puny secrets need protection. Big discoveries are protected by public incredulity."~ Marshall McLuhan

All of us, who have chosen the path of thinking things through invariably come to the charge of being, "conspiracy theorists". The slurs are well known and well honed; "Tin hat conspiracy nut", "Paranoid daydreamers", "barking moon-bat crazy", and variations on this theme.

There are scores of Acamaniacs who are professors of "psychology" or "law" who have taken it upon themselves to explain why 'we' are disturbed individuals, while ignoring and burying the fact that the paradigm of the system of this society itself is psychotic.

Who can deny that a society and system based on endless war is insane?

Only conformist bean counters and apologists for the
Military-Intelligence Industrial Complex.

'There is only one certainty available to man; "I am"...all else is conjecture. It is the reasonableness and rationality of the conjecturing that gives weight to it's profitability.

Amerika is a land of enchantment, virtually the entire population is in a trance induced by the magic spell of mass media. They are in the clutch of necromancy so high tech, and so powerful that it transcends anything humankind has faced in all of its history. It is a witko mass-mind--a psychotic super-social entity on track for mass suicide. It does not seem as if the world has gone mad, the world has indeed gone mad.

I would liken it more to a Stockholm syndrome

Stockholm syndrome
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stockholm_syndrome

In psychology, Stockholm syndrome is a term used to describe a paradoxical psychological phenomenon wherein hostages express empathy and have positive feelings towards their captors. These feelings are generally considered irrational in light of the danger or risk endured by the victims, who essentially mistake a lack of abuse from their captors as an act of kindness.[1][2]

The FBI’s Hostage Barricade Database System shows that roughly 27% of victims show evidence of Stockholm syndrome.[3]

The syndrome is named after the Norrmalmstorg robbery of Kreditbanken at Norrmalmstorg in Stockholm, in which the bank robbers held bank employees hostage from August 23 to August 28, 1973. In this case, the victims became emotionally attached to their captors, and even defended them after they were freed from their six-day ordeal.

The term "Stockholm syndrome" was coined by the criminologist and psychiatrist Nils Bejerot, who assisted the police during the robbery, and referred to the syndrome in a news broadcast.[4]

It was originally defined by psychiatrist Frank Ochberg to aid the management of hostage situations.[5]
