Blockbuster Brainwashing Shows

[Enemy]

I have misspellings in my document. Please overlook them to study it's content. The reason I have published this is because I see a distressing trend with “Big shows” ones that everyone watches, or has heard about. I was told that Twenty Four is an excellent show, but I cannot enjoy it when it glamorises torture. Now Lost is also joining in the “Condition the sheeple for torture” movement. We know governments never tell the truth, or hide it. And what better way to hide it than to put right in plain sight!

LOST has lost it's way.

As with many other people, I find the blockbuster success of LOST enthralling. It's an incredible show. However, there are certain themes that make themselves more apparent the more one watches this show.

Season one was an introduction. Many story arcs were left open, to entice the viewer to watch the second season. I paid scant regard to the show until it dragged me in with it's open story lines, and made you think. Something rare for a Hollywood production.

Season two established the enemy. As we can see, The Enemy is not me (:D) Or is it? Nothing is known for certain, the Pandora's box of season one left many questions. Season two answers those questions, and for every one it does, raises even more! So now, I was hungry for season three. I really, really wanted to find out if the survivors will overcome the despicable others, the enemy. The ones that are superior, and seem to know all.

Season three, for the first three episodes has been a re-introduction. It shows the other's are “caring, we don't want to be your enemy, but will be if you force us”. The imprisoned survivors are shown to be belligerent, violent, psychotic. Whilst the captors (the others) are shown as calm, collected, as if teaching a child to overcome it's bothersome temper tantrums.

Episode four was an eye opener. Anyone who has lifted the veil will see the truth. It's not universally known, but ABC is the media front specifically for the CIA. Thus, when the CIA wishes to convey a message, it will use them, in one form or another. And if one can hide the truth in entertainment, such as Lost, you condition the sheep to unconsciously accept what's going on.

Episode four shows Sawyer talking with Kate about his plan to escape. He's not aware that he is being monitored (Much like many sheep in the UK and the US are not aware of their respective government's total surveillance in their lives.) He plans to use the punishment device in his cage, a button that when pressed out of sequence would shock the user, to shock his captor, and steal the keys from him when he is down. To his surprise, Ben comes, and does not get shocked. In Sawyer's daze, he is hit over the head with a baton, and Ben knocks him unconscious.

Sawyer wakes up, strapped to a table. Many know this to be a universal sign of “Bad shit is about to go down.” He is stabbed in the heart with a long needle, then there is a scene change. He wakes up to find a swab and a wound in his chest. Whilst still immobilised he is shown a rabbit in a cage. The rabbit is shaken violently, and dies from heart attack from the fear. Sawyer is told he has a pacemaker so if his heart rate goes above 140BPM it will explode his heart. Never mind that a pacemaker is supposed to regulate one's heart rate, and contains NO explosive device.

He is told to cooperate, he has the incentive. If he cooperates, he won't die. If he does as he's told, he won't be beaten. So it's in his best interest to be a good citizen. Does this ring any bells?

Later on he is taken up a mountain, and shown his island that the survivors are on. Ben shows him the rabbit that was supposedly dead, and it was live and well. Saying that it was given a sedative so it'd appear to have died. Sawyer is then told that he has no pacemaker that would blow up his heart, rightly so! Pacemakers do not do that. But Sawyer perceived that he could die if his heart rate went above 140BPM, and the perception of torture is much more effective than actual physical abuse.

The CIA is not dumb, John Woo knows that when you torture someone, they say anything to stop the torture. Torture doesn't produce cooperation, it produces coercion. So if you can trick someone into believing you, if you can trick them into wanting to cooperate. If you can “con a conman” then that's better. You (supposing you were the CIA) win. You show that your form of torture through the program “lost” is better than other, “brutish” forms of torture. Subconsciously, when the sheep are in their gulags, and are subjected to their tortures that will happen if the tyrants are not disposed, they will think in their preprogrammed way “Oh, it's like Sawyer in Lost! All I have to do is be a good boy/girl and live happily ever after.”

We are told what we can see and hear. When we see and hear torture on shows rated for 14 year olds and up with torture, we are conditioned to say, and think “Oh, it's for my own good, some people have to be tortured. It's all right, we still have Disneyland!”

This is brainwashing. I will continue to watch Lost as long as I can tolerate it. Here is some other underlying themes in the show.

The animosity between Charlie, a northern Englishman, and Desmond, a ruggedly handsome Scotsman that's as endearing and amicable as he is insane, and “Scottish”. Desmond is attracted to Claire, who Charlie loves, and wants to protect her baby, Erin (Or is it Aaron?) Desmond builds a lightning rod near their hut, and when lightning strikes it, he leers at them in a diabolical manner. Could the plot-within-plots be the rivalry between Scottish and Yorkshire freemasonry? Is this a plot by the Illuminati so that even 33rd degree mason's are distracted over a bitter feud between their flavour of Freemasonry?

Hurley is the benign fat bastard. I suspect he's portrayed in such a manner to show that fat people are no threat to the CIA, and that the World Order (It's not new or old, despots are despots, whether they live in Rome, England, Germany, Russia or Israel) Even when Hurley looses Lisa, he doesn't become violent, and is pitied. No one opposes him, he is the good man.

Mr.Eko is the stereotypical fundamentalist. In the fantasy world of Lost miracles happen to him, and he will always be safe. His faith protects him. Again, more CIA brainwashing to enforce the sheeple that church is good, and their imaginary friend is going to protect them. Unfortunately they equate Mr.Eko as being a real person, and not a fictional character. In fiction, miracles happen, that's why fiction is popular, it's a form of escape. Just like the legend of Jesus.

John Locke, which is an interesting choice in name considering the original, is really a cunt. He is knowledgeable about survival, he is a hunter, he is a threat to those oppose him. John has no faith, he got angry and rejected god. Now he has been shown the error of his ways with miracles his mind cannot explain. Mr.Eko is no long his adversary, but his friend. John, unable to cope with the incomprehension of what he saw, attributes it to supernatural force, something that is very easy to do in distress when you need a solution, and you need it fast.

As for Jon the doctor, I don't have much on him yet. What is noteworthy is him being escorted to the surgery to operate on one of their dying comrades, he is hooded, and a loud Siren makes sure that Sawyer and Kate cannot communicate with him. The hood could have been any shape, but it was pointed, like that icon of Abu Ghraib.

Please help me, a lot of this evidence is for internal consumption by fellow members of the forum. I have no citations, all I have done is put together the jigsaw puzzle of little pieces here and there to see the big picture.

The shows are made in order to get everyone used to ideas presented in the shows. Implanting ideas, behaviors, product cravings and of course on the financial side they get to sell ad slots.

Have you considered that the only conspiracy here is the one to get you so wrapped up in this fictional story and the inane minutiae of its characters that you continue watching the show and its accompanying advertisements and perhaps with some luck you'll talk about it on the internet and maybe suck a few other people in as well?;)

Don't get me wrong, I've watched some popular shows myself... usually on a lazy day when I stay in bed and a marathon of some show or other happens to be on, and I do see plenty of conditioning... mostly of the 'consume' and 'obey authority' variety and I've seen the 'torture is okay' message time and again in the form of police brutality portrayed on tv where somehow the people beaten always are really the bad guys.

Seriously though... you may be in a little deep with that lost scenario... pre-programed for when we're in the camps? Why bother? There will be no rebellion in 'the camps' - everyone will be controlled with electrifying rfid chips and psycoactive drugs. I feel you're giving them far too much credit for working some sort of percieved masterpiece of control and seduction... I am unsure why they would put that kind of effort into such a thing when they certainly have ways to get the same message through subliminally.

Adverts? No, I don't watch those. My television is downloaded, and the adverts are edited out.

ALL primetime network drama (and even comedy) shows are stuffed full of propaganda. From medical shows talking about how people need to take vaccines and pushing bad psudo-science that people will devour, to shows promoting torture and constantly instilling fear of al-CIA-duh in the minds of the sheep watching, promotion of all-powerful government that will "save the day" whenever danger or disaster strikes, military crossing over to police and bark orders at citizens, etc. It's complete bullshit and I don't know how anyone awake can stand to watch any of it. It makes me sick just seeing 5 minutes of a primetime program and how much propaganda they stuff into it.

It really is crazy. Watch any cop show or any kind of investigation show.

Always it's the same.. "Well, we had to bust this dude's head, and hold him without charges..but, he was a bad guy so it's O.K."

Ends always justify the means and violating rights is always acceptable becasue it ALWAYS end in catching the bad guy.

Sigh..

Even shows that I love, like the Shield, are just as guilty of this. But I guess since that show is about corrupt cops, and its actually shows then getting their come-uppins.. I guess its not as bad.

Here is the deal. Especially for Americans now that Habeas Corpus is gone. If they come for you... you can expect no fair treatment whatsoever, therefore it is in your best interest to fight as hard as you can and at the very least go down swinging and take as many of them with you as you can. --- THIS is what Bush has created, a do or die situation for everyone.

Quote:Twenty Four is an excellent show, but I cannot enjoy it

It WAS an excellent show. Now its just a 'conditioning device'. I don't watch it anymore.

Lost was a great show in first seasons. I stopped watching it afterwards.
Infact i stopped watching TV at all except Prison Break which i d/l (edited versions).

Quote:Have you considered that the only conspiracy

Valid point!
