Subliminal brain washing !? Co-incidenct or wat!
-
1. De facto mouthpiece of government yesterday printed a picture of students holding the Red colour reading passport aptly called Little Red Dot.
----co-incidence : millions of peasants had a Little red book during Maoist China
2. Huge sign board on display on National Day period in all housing estate, foreground with big portraits of political leaders and background that of happy citizens etc
– co-incidence- :Can relate that to big poster in China where man with one raised arm looking afar with the smiling peasant behind.
3. DJ call the spectators to wave, strong presence of military command at NDP and helicopter view of the parade on TV on ALL channels
Co-incidence –Does it resemble that of N.Korea way of marking their Nation/Party celebration and old Russia where all channels were dedicated to Party/ State celebration.
Patriotic song blasting in NTUC now but couched in a modern form that of pop artiste and a very catchy tune.
Wonder if anyone make similar observation? By all means love Singapore but don’t kena “psycho” whilst affecting your mind even though you are not aware of it!
Comments pls -

Usually when u are watching TV, u switch channel when there are commercials because dont want to be compulsive audience. But of course sometime they are so good that u want to watch them! Like the cute one or something that appeal to u.
The commercial that appeal to u may appear to be entertaining but slowly and unknowing u are buying that brand. That is the power of media advertising.
When bombarded with articles that sing praises of the ruling party in the de facto mouthpiece of government, when TV, radio, Supermarkets, trains stations platforms LCDs, all start playing patriotic songs and videos which blurred the line between the party and government, when gigantic portraits of ruling party figure are sighted in strategic locations in townships etc etc
Can u switch channel?
Very difficult to "shield" from this type advertising campaign.

All I'm concerned about was making ends meet! -
yes, there are lots of Brain washing - from young in school and on all media the people have access. Takes someone from other countries to notice it cause we are all so submerge into all that propaganda already
-
The Friday edition of the local English print media, the Insight page today give extensive coverage to ruling party member again. Only well taken photographs are printed.
-
Readers are now being ‘stormed’ daily on every other page. But not enough space for Forum letters.
-
brain conditioning' now in high gear on local TV.
'Defining moments' program together with numerous shots of the show are being screened over and over. -
It wiull only work on their Zombies.. not some of us..

lets not speak for everyone ok? Some of us are perceptive enough to have noticed it for a long time, or maybe their propaganda never really got thru to us.Originally posted by mistyblue:yes, there are lots of Brain washing - from young in school and on all media the people have access.

In fact if one saw the recent obituary notice of the passing of former ruling party minister. He was referred as " Comrade".
Singapore is not 100% democratic state.
It is a monolithic state (defined as a single large organisation, is slow to change and not interested in individual people). -
All these are called propaganda. Used to brainwash us after exposed to them for a long time.

Hey, when I went shopping in Bugis recently, I saw cut outs of red cows being placed on a field nearby.

Somebody had better get the police to check if there really has been a permit granted.
We don't want people putting up stuff without government approval, do we?
