Thought Police Muscle up in Britain

Britain appears to be evolving into the first modern soft totalitarian state. As a sometime teacher of political science and international law, I do not use the term totalitarian loosely. There are no concentration camps or gulags but there are thought police with unprecedented powers to dictate ways of thinking and sniff out heresy, and there can be harsh punishments for dissent.

Nikolai Bukharin claimed one of the Bolshevik Revolution's principal tasks was "to alter people's actual psychology". Britain is not Bolshevik, but a campaign to alter people's psychology and create a new Homo britannicus is under way without even a fig leaf of disguise.'

Mass Arrests Have No Place in a Democratic Country

There are times, and they seem to be growing more frequent, when the civil liberties we still associate with life in Britain suddenly start to look dangerously fragile. Yesterday was one such occasion. We woke up to the news that 114 people had been arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to commit aggravated trespass and criminal damage. This deserves to be spelled out. More than 100 people were arrested in the Sneinton Dale area of Nottingham not for committing an offence, but for allegedly planning to do so. In other words, they were arrested pre-emptively.

Now pre-emptive arrests may sometimes be justified: for instance, if there is evidence that an act of terrorism or other major life-threatening crime is nearing execution. But the evidence has to be persuasive, and it is often hard to convince a jury that a conspiracy to commit a crime existed, as acquittals under such circumstances show. People tend to be uncomfortable with the idea that someone can be arrested before a crime has been committed – and rightly so. It smacks of totalitarian regimes and the thought police.

Think!

You’ll be familiar with the term ‘thought police’. That department of Elite Mission Control is very active right now because the mind programme wants to completely shut down independent thought.

Independent thought, which requires an open mind, will call into question what it feels is not ‘right’.

And since less and less is feeling right, the more closed minds there are, the more the elite can get away with keeping their dastardly plan hidden. It’s getting harder for them to do that so they are trying to shut down minds faster.

Let me show you something I call into question and put firmly in the category of Mind Control.

Is Political Correctness Really Just Mind Control

What have the Viet Cong, Khmer Rouge and the British Army got in common? They are all very hot on “re-education”, brainwashing and thought control. It is incredible, but there it is – now it’s Prince Harry’s turn to go on an “Equality and Diversity Awareness” training course put on by the Ministry of Defence. What a load of pure, unadulterated garbage.

But apart from the sheer anger all this causes with ordinary people – and it does – what a waste of money! The question I am asked, time and time again is – where does all this political correctness come from and how did we allow it to seep into every aspect of our lives? Particularly when “1984” and “Brave New World” are there to warn us all about the control freaks.

The Spy Factory: The New Thought Police

The National Security Agency (NSA) is developing a tool that George Orwell's Thought Police might have found useful: an artificial intelligence system designed to gain insight into what people are thinking.

With the entire Internet and thousands of databases for a brain, the device will be able to respond almost instantaneously to complex questions posed by intelligence analysts. As more and more data is collected—through phone calls, credit card receipts, social networks like Facebook and MySpace, GPS tracks, cell phone geolocation, Internet searches, Amazon book purchases, even E-Z Pass toll records—it may one day be possible to know not just where people are and what they are doing, but what and how they think.

The system is so potentially intrusive that at least one researcher has quit, citing concerns over the dangers in placing such a powerful weapon in the hands of a top-secret agency with little accountability.

Neuroimaging Of Brain Shows Who Spoke To A Person And What Was Said

Scientists from Maastricht University have developed a method to look into the brain of a person and read out who has spoken to him or her and what was said. With the help of neuroimaging and data mining techniques the researchers mapped the brain activity associated with the recognition of speech sounds and voices.
