I've been thinking a lot about thought control through various influences. How media can control our very thoughts by feeding us false news, or manipulated news. I started to think back to long long ago when people thought that electricity was of the devil. Many people feared it at first. Then of course, over time it became the norm. Then the home radio came to be and people thought that was the devil, and feared it. But everybody gathered around and listened to stories playing out through a glowing box. This brought people together in the sense that they were all listening to the same commercials, same news casts etc. In this simpler time it was easier, but just as affective to control the thoughts of the masses. Soon movies were being made. A lot of people said movies were of the devil. Subliminal advertising was introduced. Everyone was going to see the "pictures," and we're all being thought controlled. This was way too easy, so they put a stop to it. But learned from it. I'll fast forward here, (but yes there's a lot I could add in in between) computers, internet; all possible, and stemming from electricity. Cell phones, social media. Video after video after video. And a lot of people said this stuff was of the devil as it was coming into play. The news has always played a role in everything I've covered. They use to show news casts before movies. People used to get really riled up from the propaganda they were being fed back then. Played into the war a lot. But back on track. So looking back and the whole shebang of thought/mind control/influence control, which has all been pretty evil, and you can call it whatever you want, but has been of the devil. Meant for you to consume and obey. Look where we are. Evil has brought us here.
So I'm thinking, maybe they were right back then. Evil has always been around. But electricity let evil stretch it's arms far and wide.
Thanks for reading.

PD: and no I don't actually think electricity is the devil (just the way I chose to title my rant). I just think it's funny how some people did actually think electricity was of the devil. Dark magic stuff. And ya know, in a way, they weren't far off. If you look at all the evil it transformed into..
But yes, I like my lights and warmth, and all that. This is a late night/early am musing meant for your entertainment of thought.

Well, for one thing, the devil is only about 800 years old. Made my man to control man.

Knowing that, where was the devil before electricity if electricity is the devil?

Of the devil. Was the mindset of many. Of course the devil is older than electricity. Lol. Here I'm saying a tool of the devil, at least. As are many many things. This was more of a muse. I know my Bible.
That got a chuckle outta me tho, thanks.

Please show me where the word devil is in the bible. It is not. It was created about 800 years ago when the worship of Greek gods started to become popular. The horns and hooves look was stolen from Pan in the victorian times because there was a popular Greek revival again.

Now as far as electricity being the devil, I think it is possible. The devil is a demon by most non biblical accounts. The origin of the Greek word for demon is knowledgeable, smart, teacher, learned one. As the internet is electric in nature and all human knowledge is there, it is a demon.

That was my thought, yes.
Interesting tidbit is when satan was cast down from heaven, Jesus said he saw satan cast down like lightning (Luke 10:18). I see the reference to the speed and fierceness that he fell. I just thought it interesting that Jesus described it as lightning. Also, the devil was an angel. A being of light. God made lightning/electricity and the world etc. Electricity has been a powerful tool of the devil. And even though I think it's crack pot ideology to think, even back then, to think that electricity is the devil, I kind of came to a point where I can see where they'd think that back then.
Thinking about Tesla is what started this offshoot thought. How he was "erased" from history and how electricity, with Tesla, would have been a lot more advanced and cheaper IMO. How TPTB back then "cancelled" him, stole his work, and milked it in so many evil ways; up to and including how we are all about to face even higher power bills etc. When I think about all this, just starting at man harnessing electricity, and how many bad things surrounded it even in it's infancy of our control. And then what it's evolved into. More and more stuff to plug in.
So, as crack pot as it sounds nowadays to think that, I think them old time religion folk may of been on to something. Electricity has brought us more thought control than we realize.


I worked with electricity for many years, and in all it's various forms. From wiring up homes for electricity, low volt data, up to and including overhead underground work. And one thing I've learned is electricity is something to be highly respected and even feared enough to make ya extra careful.

Ummm...ya'll do realize that...your body runs on electricity...right...?

Measure your standard duplex electric receptacle.
It's 66.6mm from bottom of first receptacle to top
of second receptacle.

Yeah, THEY are like that............

Yeah and just think, electricity mind control tactics started with a kite wire and a metal door key and progressed to the horrible family breaker, The Telegraph System that flourished for most of the 19th Century !!! 😧

I haven’t a clue what you’re talking about, the devil is talked about in the Bible from darn cover to cover. Where are you hearing this nonsense you’re trying to pass off as fact?

In the sense that the brain/central nervous system operates via electro-chemical impulses, and the heart itself beats due to electrical impulses, yes... electrical currents flowing to and fro at an ever increasing rate from a plethora of devices, appliances, circuits, wireless and wired... impacts the way our minds and bodies function at a very basic level. Add sound/resonance to that and I dare say you effect the very nature of a person. And that's all before you add in the propaganda in an actual broadcast.

Is it evil? 'Artificial' electrical signals, foreign to the human body, has negative effects on nature and wildlife... I guess it depends on the definition of evil, but yeah I don't think it's good for us at all!!

I think people took this waaaay too serious. The OP rant waa an anecdote, or musing. More of a funny thought I had and not meant to be taken seriously. The premise of it comes from how people back then thought things like electricity were the devil. Phones were the devil. Movies music, the devil to them. I remember video games coming out, and some people, even back in the 80s thought video games were the devil. When I started to think about all these things and how they have brought different forms of evil along with it, I thought, hmmm...maybe these people back in the olden times might of actually been on to something. When I consider how electricity has joined us all together, and how much fighting and hate and disapproval of others opinions etc, I see a lot of evil on the internet. Therefore I kind of sort of see where, back then, they would have thought electricity was the devil.

Consider this: if the lights were to go out across the world. I mean all electrical current gone, nothing electrical, total darkness, zero communication/information being shared. We go full dark.... Think of the mass hysteria, the panic that this would produce. The world would go full tilt crazy and it would be survival of the fittest. I mean, I suggested getting rid of all social media to some people and they all had a full on meltdown at the thought of losing their precious social media status. If most people can't even fathom that thought, imagine if they couldn't plug their phones in. Imagine people not able to google something to figure it out and get answers. Can you imagine the darkness people would walk around in if the electricity were to be shut down? That's a powerful dependency on electricity.

I'll add this: if my little scenario were to happen, and our electrical grid was knocked out, a lot of people would look to the Amish to figure out how to live and survive without electricity.

Ps and fyi the devil is in most everything. Evil has many many forms. Again, this was a silly thought I had and thought people on here would get a kick out of it.
Lesson learned. Lol

The part you control yourself with is used to control you.

You're only looking at conducting and isolating components influenced by electricity.

Electricity as in what powers the Aurora’s, the stars, your nerves and is literally lightning?

What do you envisage was before electricity?

Heh, just as I read this thread title, my local electric grid had an extremely rare hiccup before thankfully coming back up.

Electricity, and our growing utter dependence upon it, might well be somehow "evil" or evil personified (Ahriman I'm looking at you, bud) but our willing indifference about past space weather and the certainty that we will once again get hit with our sun's incontinence and have our world grids crash is almost humorous.

I just hope I'm dead and dust when it next happens.

People always fear what they don't understand, psychopath abuse that to craft stories to control them.

It's funny to populate the unknown with these Christian teletubbie characters.... And the names so cool... No wonder everyone is glued to their words...
