Most politicians understand human psychology and behavior very well, and they use that to their advantage. Of course not everyone thinks the same way,
and are aware of these occurrences of manipulation, but the majority of citizens blindly follow the fuzzy bunny on the end of the string. (Reference
to my cat.)
They study things like body language for instance, subtle cues that a person subconsciously picks up on...Tone of voice, pitch, etc, can make a
politician seem more trusting. I bet someone who is really great at all of this could tell a blatant lie right to the face of the public and get away
with it...Oh wait, I think its been done.
The topic of this thread is simply an example of political maneuvering tactics, as posted above...It's all about the image.
I mean it really is sickening, and the more people that wake up the better off we will be in the long run. I have been having a lot of revolutionary
thoughts as of late, and even though I know my rights, I am semi-afraid to type up my views and make them available publicly for fear of reprisal from
the government.
People should not have to be afraid of their governments, but governments should be afraid of the people they represent. But when they use
psychological mind tricks, among other tactics, it becomes very easy to control the masses. I could rant all day on this particular subject...I don't
know if anything useful would come out of it, but that is how strongly I feel on the topic.
