The beautiful wear masks
The intelligent wear earpieces that fire off loud noises to keep them from taking unfair advantage of their brains

Does this make you wonder how much footage from prominent world events is fake?
How much fake news are we fed?
Dictators, terrorists, riots, revolution beamed into our living rooms as part of on-going psychological warfare against the masses?
Is this a conventional war of tanks and guns and bombs in Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya or is it really all part of a sustained psychological war on the minds of every single person on the planet?

Freedom of Speech - Stories from the Edge of Free Speech
This documentary film look at the changing interpretations of the first amendment of the U.S. Constitution - laws and court cases that have alternatively broadened and narrowed the amendment’s protection of free speech and assembly.
The film’s thesis is that post 9/11 the government has seized unprecedented license to:
surveil
intimidate
arrest
detain citizens and foreigners alike
The film also looks back to the Pentagon Papers’ case and compares it to cases since 9/11 dealing with high school students’ speech and protesters marching in New York City during the 2004 Republican convention.

The Gray State is the dystopian consequence of generations of American complacency.
As we enjoyed our standard of living, globalist powers laid plans spanning decades to slowly erode our constitutional rights and civil liberties to the point where we mindlessly support invasive foreign wars for profit while tolerating being sexually groped for security.
The Gray State is not coming... it's here.
If you've been following the Gray State effort, you know that it is a simultaneous exposé on the dissolution of our bill of rights at the hands of a tyrannical government AND a narrative feature film.
Even though the effort has been going on two years, it is still in its infancy as it gather steam to plow ahead into big-budget production.
So if this is something you care about, please contribute to the cause, as we're going to be taking the opportunity to initiate grassroots marketing, spread the word to the thousands of liberty-minded people at the RNC, go on radio shows, and approach potential investors.
This is a HUGE move for the Gray State effort, so if it's a message you care about, please help us out.
This video is for all those who imagine that there is some sort of magic that renders the United States immune to the tyranny that has plagued every other major empire in history.

King Lear, Act IV, scene 1
Modern servitude is voluntary, endorsed by those slaves who crawl on the surface of the Earth.
They buy the merchandises that enslave them every day more.
Slaves run after alienating jobs that are gently given to them if they prove to be tamed enough.
They choose the master's they will obey.
For this absurd tragedy to happen, it has been necessary to dispossess slaves from the awareness of their own exploitation and their alienation.
Here is the bizarre modernity of our time.
Contrary to slaves from antiquity, servants from the Middle Ages or the working-class from the first industrial revolutions, today we are contemplating people that are totally enslaved.
The difference is that they are unaware of their enslavement and those who are aware, choose to ignore it.
They ignore rebellion which should be the only genuine reaction of the exploited ones.
Slaves accept without question the pitiful life that was planned for them.
Renouncing and resignation are the sources of their misfortune.
The pursuit for dominance is the primary propellant of history, always has been, always will be.
Those who don't identify this assumption are not excused in the grand chess game, but instead are displaced and exploited by forces they do not comprehend.
From the aspect of those who rule the board it is unmistakably desirable to have a populace of unaware pawns than it is to have a bunch of adversaries which can escalate an effective battle.
To that end it has always been preferable for the rulers to build up illusions which conceal the true nature of the game.
Walter Lippmann explained the "manufacture of consent" as an innovation in the usage of democracy.
Basically, it's a method of domination, and he said this was beneficial and essential because the prevailing interests, the accepted concerns of the population elude the public.
Lippmann wasn't theorizing, nor was he explaining anomaly that he had observed from far away, he was part of that particular class, and he directly affected the evolution of this new method of control.
So what was this new method that Lippmann was alluding to?
The answer to that inquiry takes us back to the dawn of World War I.
In 1917 Woodrow Wilson assembled the Committee on Public Information, also known as the CPI. It was a disinformation bureau and its goal was to boost war approval among the American people.
The CPI, controlled by a man named George Creel, was known for its vulgar approach, blatant overstatements and outright deceptions.
However one representative of the CPI, Edward Bernays, had a much more sophisticated approach.
Instead of using nonintellectual tactics Bernays analyzed the psychology of the American people, then according to his scrutiny he conceived a campaign to advocate the idea that America's function in the war was to:
The Power of Nightmares - The Rise of The Politics of Fear
This originally aired on the BBC in 2004.
The Power of Nightmares, subtitled The Rise of the Politics of Fear, is a BBC documentary film series, written and produced by Adam Curtis.
Its three one-hour parts consist mostly of a montage of archive footage with Curtis's narration.
The series was first broadcast in the United Kingdom in late 2004 and has subsequently been broadcast in multiple countries and shown in several film festivals, including the 2005 Cannes Film Festival.
The films compare the rise of the Neo-Conservative movement in the United States and the radical Islamist movement, making comparisons on their origins and claiming similarities between the two.
More controversially, it argues that the threat of radical Islamism as a massive, sinister organized force of destruction, specifically in the form of al-Qaeda, is a myth perpetrated by politicians in many countries - and particularly American Neo-Conservatives - in an attempt to unite and inspire their people following the failure of earlier, more utopian ideologies.
The Power of Nightmares has been praised by film critics in both Britain and the United States.
Its message and content have also been the subject of various critiques and criticisms from conservatives and progressives.
Curtis has also been quoted in such publications as Liquid Times by Zygmunt Bauman.
Ubiquitous Computing - Big Brother's All-Seeing Eye
An "Everyware" world, as Adam Greenfield calls it, is a world in which computers are embedded and merged seamlessly everywhere in the environment.
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags communicate their position and other information constantly in a vast network.
Everyday objects become "searchable" as if they were part of the interconnected world wide web. In this interconnected internet of things, scientific management and surveillance of people and the environment we inhabit becomes possible, and marketers' ultimate dreams come true.
