"So you see, Captain, all those apparently spheroid planets out there are actually discs, so we
need to re-mold our entire model of reality with this as axiomatic, and... uh... Captain?"

 

A well-developed sense of humor is part of the antidote to extremism in all its forms, as it bespeaks the
sort of flexibility of mind that cannot be trapped by STS ideological pranking -- which often involves getting
one to consent to believe in a series of relatively tiny and seemingly harmless contentions so that their
unsuspected implications which are not so harmless must be accepted also (if one is to appear properly
"rational") -- to one's eventual sorrow...

4. Hide your conclusion from your opponent until the end.
Mingle your premises here and there in your talk.
Get your opponent to agree to them in no definite order.
By this circuitous route you conceal your goal until you have reached all the admissions necessary to reach your goal.
--from Arthur Schopenhauer's The Art of Controversy
(Orig. pub'd Röcken, Saxony, 15 Oct. 1844 as Book II of Wisdom of life and counsels and maxims;
Saunders English transl. 1912)

"It would be a very good thing if every trick could receive some short and obvious appropriate name,
so that when a man used this or that particular trick, he could be at once reproached for it."
-- A. Schopenhauer, from The Art of Controversy

Once an idea -- however  patently absurd it is -- is successfully linked via malignly-configured conditioning
to the average already-quite-conditioned-thank-you-very-much human's ego, it will defend it as an extension
of Self -- even to the very death. As is witnessed by the entire modern history of mankind. How much better
to be able to laugh at first sight when the Emperor parades his newest bit of absurd and invisible Imperial frou-frou?

Not every STO Wanderer is a babe in the wood in the dark forest that is this present world. It behooves positively-oriented
types to learn how to face more and more of the dark side of human nature in its actual current operation in human affairs
globally as a way to 1) intelligently protect what's worth saving from harm, as a service to one's species, and 2) sharpen one's
own attunement to positivity against the opposition of the most opposite catalyst available, as a service to own's own true Self.
If one is successful in handling smaller jobs of actualizing love and light against opposition, one will merit access to bigger jobs --
and meet more and more interesting people engaged in this type of pursuit.

"GR: You have lamented that you have seen your Mind War tech at least in part used unethically during the Gulf War.  Do you fear it will be used again, or is currently being used on US citizens and furthermore, what can the average person do to protect themselves from the system that you have created?

Aquino: I have always maintained that any kind of PSYOP requires strict ethical guidelines if it is not to be misused like the propaganda systems of the old totalitarian dictatorships. As the highest form of PSYOP, MindWar requires absolute ethical integrity, as once again detailed in my book. And the reason for this is brutally simple: There is no defense whatever against MW PSYCONs, because they access the subconscious, not the conscious thought process. You would have absolutely no idea a MW campaign was being directed against you unless you knew exactly what to look for, and quite possibly not even then.
Understand this: MW has one and only one purpose and justification: to preempt and eliminate ordinary 'physical' war (PhysWar or PW). It is a mechanism to stop the killing and injuring of people and the destruction of their homes and livelihood. If it is used for that end, under rigorous ethical guidelines, then and only then is it acceptable."

-- Dr. Michael Aquino (from 2013 interview by G. D. Roberts at http://disinfo.com/2013/09/devils-advoca...el-aquino/)
