The problem with lies, propaganda, and brainwashing is that they hurt you over a lifetime. Without truth, you will always have victim mentality. The truth cuts…it hurts. Whoever said the truth hurts was being an optimist. The truth is an excruciatingly painful and an Inconvenient truth always hurts. But there is no escaping it and you will never be whole without it. Only when you acquire truth can you begin to plan solutions and take actions that will make you whole; uncontrolled by the propaganda, complaining, and lies of others.

CONVERSION is a “nice” word for BRAINWASHING . . .
In the entire history of man, no one has ever been brainwashed and realized, or believed, that he had been brainwashed. Those who have been brainwashed will usually passionately defend their manipulators.
IN READING THE HISTORY OF NATIONS, WE FIND THAT, LIKE INDIVIDUALS, THEY HAVE THEIR WHIMS AND THEIR PECULIARITIES; THEIR SEASONS OF EXCITEMENT AND RECKLESSNESS, WHEN THEY CARE NOT WHAT THEY DO. WE FIND THAT WHOLE COMMUNITIES SUDDENLY FIX THEIR MINDS UPON ONE OBJECT, AND GO MAD IN ITS PURSUIT; THAT MILLIONS OF PEOPLE BECOME SIMULTANEOUSLY IMPRESSED WITH ONE DELUSION, AND RUN AFTER IT, TILL THEIR ATTENTION IS CAUGHT BY SOME NEW FOLLY MORE CAPTIVATING THAN THE FIRST…MONEY, AGAIN, HAS OFTEN BEEN A CAUSE OF THE DELUSION OF MULTITUDES. SOBER NATIONS HAVE ALL AT ONCE BECOME DESPERATE GAMBLERS, AND RISKED ALMOST THEIR EXISTENCE UPON THE TURN OF A PIECE OF PAPER… MEN, IT HAS BEEN WELL SAID, THINK IN HERDS; IT WILL BE SEEN THAT THEY GO MAD IN HERDS, WHILE THEY ONLY RECOVER THEIR SENSES SLOWLY, AND ONE BY ONE.
