Most people in this present day and age like to watch television.  Television offers a way for people to escape boredom and provides a means to pass time.  What many people are unaware of is that television is also a means for the controllers of our financial system to take control of our thoughts and emotions.  When someone is watching TV the analytical part of their brain is not in use, they absorb the information without giving much thought as to the content they are receiving.  This is an effective way to convey ideas, and to draw the viewers to conclusions implied by the controllers.  Much of the information is stored in the subconscious part of the brain without the viewer remembering much about what happened in the program they are watching.  Ideas and even conclusions are conveyed that the viewers might not have come to had they not come across the information in a fictional setting.  It is also a way that stereotypes are brought to the public.  Notice how different cultures and races are often portrayed the same way, in comedy as well as drama.  This reinforces preconceived ideas about how certain types of people act and live.

Many ideas people hold about the history of the world are brought to them through fiction as well.   The “Little House on the Prairie” for instance demonstrates the type of lives people led or how lawless the west was in days past.  Often times what passes for history in a movie or TV series is very inaccurate but creates nostalgia in people causing them not to see the reality of that particular time.  This is often true for our current day as well.  TV gives people ideas as to what they should look like and what their lives should be like that are very far from reality.  One show that comes to mind is the HBO series “Entourage”.  This show portrays four guys living in Los Angeles, hanging out with celebrities, “hooking up” with models, driving million dollar cars, etc.  This is very different from reality for 99.9% of the population.  It does however serve to create an envious and dissatisfied population.  It undoubtedly does wonders for the sales of the name brand clothing the actors wear as well.  Most people do not give much thought to how fiction forms the ideas people have of different scenarios and time periods, but fiction definitely has an impact on how people feel about different time periods.  One of the most effective ways to use fiction to currently program people   is through cartoons, and not just children’s cartoons.  Some very popular adult cartoons are; “Family Guy”, “The Simpsons”, and “South Park”.  The characters always remain unchanged no matter what happened to them in previous episodes.  There are no actors in cartoons so the producers do not have to worry about offending or ruining reputations.    These cartoons are used repeatedly to influence the ideas of adults and shape what they consider normal.             

On a recent episode of South Park, that I saw called “Woodland Critter Christmas” had one of the characters meet a group of animals in the woods who were supposed to help “the savior” come back to life only to find out “the savior” was “the antichrist”.  This episode was a great example of using fiction to familiarize the viewer with subject matter that TV shows could not use.  It makes light of devil worship and abortion.  I cannot say that I do not find humor in some of these shows, but they are heavy on concepts such as these.  It tells the public that abortion is just part of the norm; it’s not that big of a deal.  This also familiarizes people with the idea of devil worship.  Not to say that everyone who watches this episode is going to worship the devil, but making light of the subject makes it more easily digestible when people do come across this type of behavior.  Nothing is sacred to a show such as South Park

This form of programming was also used in the South Park episode "Red Sleigh Down".  In this episode, the characters of South Park decide to go to Iraq to bring Christmas to the citizenry.  All of the Iraqis are portrayed the way you would think they would be portrayed in order to make them ripe for extermination.  Every one of the Iraqis is a machine gun toting terrorist.  They are all trying to kill Santa Claus, they even went as far as to capture Santa and have the Iraqi’s torture Santa by electrocuting his genitals.  This episode just happened to coincide with America occupying this country.  I hope I don’t have to remind you of what we have done to these people since 9/11.  It sure does make it easy to treat these people as subhuman when this type of entertainment forms most of the public perception of Iraq.  I recommend being on the lookout for any type of entertainment where Middle easterners of portrayed.  This exact type of stereotype is generally what you receive from the fiction.

Deviating a little from my present topic, another way entertainment programs your perception is by giving the viewer futuristic settings and possible future scenarios in order to make things that will come about in the future more digestible.  In a book by John Carter, called “Sex and Rockets: the occult world of Jack Parsons, it says, “It is appropriate that Parsons was fascinated by and involved in not only rocket science but also science fiction, since the later is an inspiration to the former, providing ideas about where humanity and the future are headed that can be acted upon and brought to fruition”.  Science fiction never seems to be too far off when giving the viewer an idea about what is to come in the future.  Technology, disasters, altered humans seem to be the norm when viewing fiction that is taking place in the future.  These programs make things such as sterility in humans the norm, as well as microchips.  If you were to do a little bit of research of the subject, you would find that sterility is becoming a huge problem in western culture.  Microchips for purchasing products and for tracking abducted children are also becoming the norm.  How is it the writers of these shows seem to know what exactly will be coming in the future.  I leave it to the reader to do some searching and draw his or her own conclusions on this subject.  Is there possibly an agenda on the go from some ruling elite?

There are a number of books and videos on subjects relating to programming and its implementation through media. Alan Watt has a website at www.cuttingthroughthematrix.com.  If you get his podcast from November 23, 2006, he gives a much more detailed analysis as to how fiction and what he calls “predictive programming” work.  It is explained in much more detail than I have given here.  A good movie on the subject of propaganda is “Manufacturing Consent”, by Noam Chomsky.  Here Chomsky details how news, media, and fiction form the opinions we hold about politics and the world around us.  Next time you watch TV try to see if you can notice some of the subtleties that are underlying the shows you are watching, you would be surprised what you will notice.  You should not allow the powers that be to form your thoughts and tell you what is right and wrong.  Every person on the planet should do this.  Unfortunately, they are not.  Certainly if people would think for themselves, we would live in a much different world than we do.
