Manipulation. Or dependence. Restrict leisure, entertainment, and vacation time. Permission is required for major decisions. Does any of this sound like COVID-19? Rewards and punishments are used to modify behaviors, both positive and negative. You could go to work, if you're vaccinated. You cannot go to work if you haven't had the vaccine. Discourage individualism, encourage groupthink, impose rigid rules and regulations, instill dependency and obedience. Deliberately withhold information. Distort information to make it more acceptable. Systematically lie. Number 12, minimize or discourage access to non-cult sources of information. Don't do your own homework. God forbid, you're not doing your own homework, are you? Internet, TV, radio, books, articles, newspapers, magazines, media, all critical information. Don't talk to anybody who disagrees with what the leadership says. And keep people so busy, they don't have time to think or investigate, and control through cell phone with texting, calls, internet, tracking. In a cult, information is tightly controlled. Members are discouraged or forbidden from doing homework, outside of the cult. Critical thinking and questioning are not just discouraged. They're seen as signs of betrayal. Sound familiar? Encourage spying, on other members. Extensive use of cult-generated information and propaganda, including newsletters, magazines, journals, audiotapes, videotapes, and other media. Require members to internalize the group's doctrine as truth. Think, if you're not an antiracist, you are a racist. And come to this program, that we're now having in your office. And internalize it. Say it. Live it. Say it! Preach it! Instill black and white thinking. Decide between good and evil. And organize people into us versus them. The use of loaded language and clichés, that constrict knowledge. Stop critical thoughts, and reduce complexities into buzzwords. Follow the science. He's an existential threat to our democracy. Rejection of rational analysis, critical thinking, and constructive criticism. Forbid critical questions about the leadership, doctrine, or policy. Labeling alternative belief systems as illegitimate, evil, destructive, or not useful. Make the person feel that the problems are always their own fault. Never the fault of the leaders or the group. You just don't understand inflation. You're part of this racist system. Promote feelings of guilt, or unworthiness, such as identity guilt. You're a white man. You're not doing enough to save the planet. Your family is really the problem. Your past is suspect. Your affiliations are unwise. Your thoughts. Your feelings. Your actions are irrelevant or selfish. They -- they pile on social guilt and historic guilt. This is not about -- I didn't write this. Historical guilt. Fear, shame, and guilt are very powerful tools. Members are often told that leaving the group will result in catastrophic consequences. Either in this life, or the next. Now, let me ask you: Catastrophic consequences. You mean like, everyone will die because of global warming, if you don't step up. And shout down everyone who is questioning? Those people should be put in jail. We don't have time to debate it. Shunning all those who leave. Giving a fear of being rejected by friends and family, if you leave. Tulsi. RFK Jr. Roseanne. Who else? Who else has left, and they've been completely shunned? I'll tell you who else. Everyone else who has woken up. Everyone else, they all say, my gosh, I've lost all of my friends! Phobia, indoctrination. Inculcating irrational fears about leaving the group. Or questioning the leader's authority. That's not even -- that's not the whole list, by the way. Does it seem like maybe, we're witnessing this kind of stuff? **Obama Kids: Sing for Change (Pyongyang Remix) ** Oct 1, 2008 Sing for change!
