Was Oprah somehow tricked into doing a psyops event for the Obama admin.?


Why "tricked"?

Why tricked? Because most people used as tools of psyops viral marketing have no idea that this is what is going on.

Hollywood actors are the best example of this trickery. They are usually just adding their human cred props to a psyops script, albeit unwittingly.

Who picked Black Eyed Peas for a band and the song with Jewish lyrics juxtaposed with lyrics describing gleeful destruction? T-Mobile's ad firm? Oprah's people? Who?


Why assume "trickery"? Why assume "unwittingly"?

Oprah and the Black Eyed Peas' Will.I.Am were both among the most visible supporters/endorsers of Barack Obama's presidential bid.

Wrong. Studies show that it has some effect and that makes it worth the effort.


Hugh. You're wrong. And that's not debatable.

I mean, yes. Of course. There are studies showing that parafoveal priming has some effect. There are also studies showing that the perirhinal cortex plays a key role in object perception and memory. As well as object recognition and association. And, hey. Do you know what those two classes of studies have in common? No. I mean, besides being neuropsychological studies of perception and memory.

Okay. Well then I'll tell you: Neither of them remotely suggests that parafoveal priming is any more capable of doing what you're suggesting it does than valet parking is. You either have no idea at all what you're talking about or you don't care at all whether you're making a case that's based in reason or speaking in tongues.

Please allow me to repeat myself:

There is no evidence at all of any kind that you can get anyone to do, think, or believe anything via parafoveal priming by inserting symbols that are capable of many different interpretations in many different contexts into dynamic crowded sensory environments without any inflection or emphasis on the symbol at all with the expectation that it will have any impact on a large number of people whose identity, mood, environment, tastes, beliefs, age, degree of stress, hunger, sleep-deprivation, drunkenness, education, health and all the other nearly infinite assorted factors that play a very strong role in the formation and retention of memory are completely unknown to you.

And please allow me to add:

That is not a false claim that neither subliminals nor advertising are guaranteed to work, so there's no concern about them. You're not talking about advertising. And I'm not disputing that people sometimes have subliminal -- and indeed parafoveal -- perceptions.

HMW wrote:
Because doing that is not in fact what parafoveal priming is.


That flag outside the center of vision is a classic example of parafoveal priming, something outside the center of visual focus and thus prone to subconscious processing. Yes, its duration is longer than 250 ms. but the peripheral vision processing effect is its significance.

http://www.csic.cornell.edu/201/subliminal/
.....
Parafoveal priming involves presenting stimuli just outside what researchers call the foveal visual field, such as in one of the corners of a computer screen or television set. There is some inconsistency among authors in locating the exact boundaries of the foveal and parafoveal regions, but the outer boundaries are generally set at 1 and 6 degrees of visual angle, respectively ( Bargh & Pietromonaco, 1982; Bouma, 1978; Holender, 1986; Rayner, 1978).
......
s important to notice, however, that these visual boundaries are only approximate, and these regions are traditionally distinguished for functional, rather than psychophysical, purposes (Holender, 1986). Visual acuity is actually a continuously decreasing function of the distance from fixation (Anstis, 1974), nothing magical happens when you cross the boundaries between these regions.


I strongly suggest that you inform yourself about what kind of parafoveally presented stimuli have what kind of effect under what kind of circumstances and for how long. Unless you want to continue to use ten-dollar words completely incorrectly.

Your prerequisite of "reliable and predictable" has no bearing on efforts made on any probability of success.


I don't think you understood what I was saying there, Hugh.

Oh for a gun

(oldie but a goodie.)

BTW

Black Eyed Peas lyrics, probably some psy op or other.

What's wrong with the world mama?
People living like aint got no mamas
I think the whole worlds addicted to the drama
Only attracted to the things that bring you trauma
Overseas yeah we tryin to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists here livin
In the USA the big CIA
the Bloodz and the Crips and the KKK
But if you only have love for your own race
Then you only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And if you hatin you're bound to get irate
Yeah madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
You gotta have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind and meditate
Let your soul gravitate to the love y'all

People killing people dying
Children hurtin you hear them crying
Can you practice what you preach
Would you turn the other cheek?
Father Father Father help us
Send some guidance from above
Cause people got me got me questioning
Where is the love?(where is the lovex3)(the love2x)

It just ain't the same all ways have changed
New days are strange is the world the insane?
If love and peace so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don't belong
Nations dropping bombs
Chemical gases filling lungs of little ones
With ongoing suffering
As the youth die young

So ask yourself is the loving really strong?
So I can ask myself really what is going wrong
With this world that we living in
People keep on giving in
Makin wrong decisions
Only visions of them livin and
Not respecting each other
Deny thy brother
The wars' going on but the reasons' undercover
The truth is kept secret
Swept under the rug

If you never know truth
Then you never know love
Where's the love y'all?(I don't know)
Where's the truth y'all?(I don't know)
Where's the love y'all?

People killing people dying
Children hurtin you hear them crying
Can practice what you preach
Would you turn the other cheek?
Father father father help us
Send some guidance from above
Cause people got me got me questioning
Where is the love?(where is the lovex3)(the lovex2)

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I'm getting older y'all people get colder
Most of us only care about money makin
Selfishness got us followin the wrong direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting their young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what the see in the cinema

Whatever happened to the values of humanity
Whatever happened to the fairness and equality
Instead of spreading love, we're spreading anomosity
Lack of understanding, leading us away from unity
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling down
It's no wonder why sometimes I'm feeling under
I gotta keep my faith alive, until love is found

People killing people dying
Children hurtin you hear them crying
Can you practice what you preach
Would you turn the other cheek?
Father Father Father help us
Send some guidance from above
Cause people got me got me questioning
Where is the love?(fade)



(And yes that is a cheesy song, but I still like it. Its about the only BEP song I know, cept lets get retarded which was a bit of binge drinking warm up song.

Thanks for those Black Eyed Peas lyrics, JoeHillshoist.
That's good stuff.

I think they show...that the band is clueless about just how evil the Google-Android software is in the T-mobile cellphones they are pimping.
They are helping to sell datamining/surveillance units to rebellious youth.
Maybe like Springsteen stupidly playing at the Uber-bowl halftime.

Anyone read about the guy arrested for using Twiitter to report cops had declared a street off limits? Compare the G-20 cops to the android in the video. Democracy Now covered this story a coupla days ago.

Compare those stupid 'flash mob' video events to the Twitter 'revolutions' in other countries. Seems like banality and superficiality is being used to displace relevancy in organizing within the US-UK oil war alliance.

And "data," as in 'mining,' has been good-jacketed using television psyops.

Image

Funny, the State Department actually intervened with Twitter to delay their software update downtime just because Iranian protesters were using Twitter to organize on the street.

And some of you think this viral marketed video couldn't be designed as pro-US/Israeli psyops? Think again.

Sorry if you feel ignored.
In other threads, this board's admin., Jeff Wells, has written a posting rule prohibiting me from mentioning the most common psyops tactic, keyword hijacking to create competing associations, more than just once within the thread. So unless I copy/paste a buncha stuff to a new thread, the topic of psyops is capped.

So I couldn't reply to your inquiry in context of the previous threads.
Be sure to thank Jeff for his intellectual censorship.
Because I used to (since February 2005) discuss this at great length with whomever was interested.

Realize that usernames professorpan and Zap are stone cold liars when they posit that 'HMW just won't discuss things with us.'
I did until I was nearly banned for it. So I now I don't.

YOUR QUESTION-

Meme-reversal is not going to affect those of us who know things.
It is meant to be deployed against those who are information-weak-and- vulnerable, especially children and uneducated or illiterate adults who are especially vulnerable to (search them up):
> inoculation theory
> interference theory
used on people who don't know much and are vulnerable to being pre-biased to recall a benign association with a keyword instead of an association that is hostile to power.

This is essentially culture-jamming or, as the Pentagon calls it, counterpropaganda.

Counterpropaganda is defined by the Pentagon as "any actions taken to minimize the effect of hostile information."

This includes just out-marketing whistleblowers by using CIA-infiltrated pop culture. Picture psyops strategic culture as an aircraft carrier swamping a whistleblower in a canoe.

Hugh,

This is the first time that I've read some of the things that you've been trumpeting for some time.

Some of it reminds me of a particular aspect of Neuro-Linguistic Programing, or NLP. That aspect being anchoring.

Absolutely. Thanks for that page.

Psyops is about mnemonics, either reinforcing or suppressing memory recall, attitudes, and values.

Patterns of memory links, the proverbial dots that connect, can be covertly rehearsed and reinforced in our minds by embedding the memorable handles - usually keywords or images designed to evoke the target concept - into mnemonically optimized narratives.

This is called semantic priming. Kind of like blazing a path through your neurons so that they will fire that way again more easily in the future.
Path of least resistance dynamics are involved in memory recall.

Suppressing memory recall with mnemonically optimized narratives is called interference theory which is like hiding something by creating a map to get to it but with all the main road signs pointing exactly the wrong direction to prevent you from arriving.

Related to interference theory is inoculation theory which is used like a vaccine to prevent you from adopting an unwanted attitude by covertly exposing you to it in disguised form to persuade you to reject it and thus achieve refutational preemption.

Gotcha. Thanks for that.

I've been sensitive to the whole issue of mnemonics for a long time. Mostly natural mnemomics, though. Not the artificially (externally) induced ones that you refer to.

We're creating and re-creating (natural) mnemonics all the time. It's how we reinforce our identities, and how we reinforce our recollections of the past.

I once helped out a friend of mine who was a stage hypnotist (his assistant went AWOL) and was awakened to how incredibly suggestable our minds really are.

Thanks again.

On Nationalist Propaganda Radio's 'Wait Wait Don't Tell Me' quiz show this week, at the 17-minute mark into the hour, a musical excerpt of 'Lekhaim.'

The Goldstone Report on Israeli war crimes is still in contention.

That NPR show has done lots of news cycle psyops.
So has 'Radio Lab,' 'Studio 360,' and 'Living on Earth.'

The formula for the viral marketing psyops I suspected adds up.

> In MTV-esque news, Madonna just created a Youtube flap over the Israeli flag on tour in September.
What a coincidence! Couldn't see that one coming down Broadway.

> Israel's war crimes are still floating in the UN.

> 1000 US troops are now in Israel for a war rehearsal.

Israel, US to simulate response to war

Israel and the United States, amid growing tensions with Iran, will simulate interoperability between missile defense systems this week during the biennial Juniper Cobra missile defense exercise.

An IDF drill at Shizafon [illustrative].

SLIDESHOW: Israel & Region | World

The exercise, set to simulate a response in the event of war between Israel, the Islamic republic, Syria and Hizbullah, will begin on Monday and end on Friday. More than 1,000 American troops from the European Command in Stuttgart, Germany have deployed in Israel for the exercise - mostly in the Negev - in addition to some 15 missile ships, some of them carrying the Aegis ballistic missile defense system.
