In the U.S.A. , the measure for all people, for behaviour, for
social contacts is taken almost solely from the Hollywood dream
factories, the very cheapest sort of 'entertainments'. It is
ingrained by sub-liminal command, subliminal suggestion. Simple
expressions like: 'to go out with ..., to have a friend, to date,
etc. ' have lost their original meanings and are understood as being
copulative actions. But had the film-producers earned millions by
carefully mass-producing what the simple-minded want, the later
gutter-syndicates gathered billions by another trick. Hollywood
produced for the cheap, the pop-syndicate eradicated first (and
permanently) all aesthetic feeling, and then, they can sell
everything for high prices. A simple command to buy, (tell that it
is top-pop-ten rate), is enough. Then, also, one need no decades of
wholehearted study in order to reach a top, one can start
straightaway in the business. All teaching, all learning, all
ideation is almost wholly 'sub-liminal' meaning that there is hardly
any conscious knowledge involved. In order to understand sub-liminal
ideation, let there be a showing of a film of the normal (?) Western
type. Let the hero or the culprit step out of a pub over which a
signboard says for instance: the Bull. When in the ribbon of
pictures, one frame is altered so that the sign reads: 'Bomb the
Russians!', it moves too fast, is stationary too short a time, for
it being read consciously. Yet, as is expected in Hypno-dynamics,
and proved in experiment, the message has influence upon the viewer.
It is said that in the U.S.A. there is a law against using this
subliminal techniques, but ... who can ever hope to investigate or
inspect it? What is more, how about the subliminal effect of all
presented messages of the untampered version of the film? What about
aggression proposed as virtue? of cruelty for pleasure?, what about
suggesting that women are, as the Mormons say, heifers, beasts for
'use' only, what about suggesting that police is always far more
criminal than the rogues themselves, of stupid fashion in behaviour?
Take the stupid women who are 'ordered' to buy some stupid clothes,
being commanded (suggestion) to belong. How about the subliminal
(real) command to 'like' the dirty, the worn, the loud, the stupid,
the infantile, the cretinous? Note that all teaching is practically
wholly subliminal, but, how many teachers in a million are
ideationally expert enough to know this? Do, read Spencer again,
about the 'control of the individual' and understand that nowadays,
we do it wholesale, unscrupled, with unlimited profits.
