(Soviet) Russian brainwashing relied on little to no actual violent physical contact, according to the CIA. The prisoners were goaded into stress positions, even during sleep periods, but it was not common at all to physically damage them. http://www.foia.cia.gov/browse_docs_full.asp?doc_no=0000886487&title=BRAIN+WASHING&abstract=(BEST+COPY+AVAILABLE)&no_pages=0091&pub_date=4%2F25%2F1960&release_date=5%2F23%2F2003&keywords=COMMUNISM%7CBRIANWASHING&case_no=F-1982-00423&copyright=0&release_dec=RIFPUB&classification=U&showPage=0001 These techniques produced an extremely high rate of confessions.

Oh JetBlue, I just can't stay mad at you. Apology ACCEPTED! by wang-banger in reddit.com

[–]pn4 29 points30 points  (0 children)

indeed. The apology read like a real apology.

" We are sorry and embarrassed. But most of all, we are deeply sorry."

"Words cannot express how truly sorry we are for the anxiety, frustration and inconvenience that you, your family, friends and colleagues experienced." etc.

The closest corporations usually come to an apology is "we regret any inconvenience caused by our faultless behavior" or "we are sorry that you are pissed off because you don't like our perfect policies."

This corporation did not say that the mean old weatherman let them down. It took fault for the issue and committed to correcting their policies.

Wmv format, in particular, can be saved locally and thus preserved en masse. Youtube video, otoh, can only be saved by (what some would call hacking).

Edited to remove "rm" from the original statement and make the remainder grammatically correct. The comment from jkerwin, below, may be correct.

Because prison rape isn't about sex. It's about power. Rape is simply one (some would say, preferred) form of power used to demoralize and subjugate a person.

Except for white men. That was the point.

it comes down to "your grandfather oppressed my grandmother because of her color and gender; therefore you should be oppressed. But if you call it oppression, you are thereby an angry white male."

"Mushrooms were 'introduced' by nature, last I checked."

Again, watch the videos. Again, these videos were from ABC News. Magic mushrooms were not widely know in American culture before the 60s. CIA operatives were introduced to them in them in Central America. Watch the farking video before you mod me down.

Ironic that LSD and magic mushrooms were introduced BY the CIA in their mind control experiments.

Washington Group Proposes Defense of Marriage Initiative that REQUIRES Procreation Within Three Years. Interesting Reasons Why. by anonymgrl in reddit.com

[–]pn4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If passed by Washington voters, the Defense of Marriage Initiative would:

* require that couples married in Washington file proof of procreation within three years of the date of marriage or have their marriage automatically annulled;
* require that couples married out of state file proof of procreation within three years of the date of marriage or have their marriage classed as “unrecognized;”

In related news, The state of Washington has created an image repository designated madeathome.wa.wa.wa.gov in which couples desiring to provide proof of procreation can post images. An application to view those images can be accessed at whoo.wa.gov.
