How might mind control work?

Following on from the previous article on the reality of mind control it might be interesting to analyse the practical and technical aspects of just how this could be achieved. In principle this depends to an extent on the type and level of mind control required but essentially it begins with having complete access to the subject. This would typically need to be for a period of time so either kidnapping, or creating a reason for an extended absence would be required. Techniques that are known to have been used for conducting medical experiments historically are the use of prison inmates, who by definition can be accessible on demand, state sponsored kidnapping as demonstrated by several CIA rendition cases and by the use of holiday competition winners. Having established a period of contact with an individual the second step will be to create a psychologically vulnerable state. This is thought to be a crucial step in the process since the more damaged a psyche is, the easier it is to manipulate and therefore control. There are numerous methods of creating these states but there is evidence from released documents that they include electro-convulsive stimulation of the brain, enforced coma, sensory deprivation, physical and mental abuse, torture, isolation and sleep deprivation amongst many others. The key is to destroy the subjects sense of self, along with their sense of time and place. This prepares the mind for re-programming.

So, how do these processes work? The human mind is complex and formed from two discrete and distinct functional parts, the conscious and the unconscious. Following the work of Freud and Jung it was established that information stored in the unconscious could influence an individuals behaviour without the conscious mind being aware of it. This would have two clear advantages to the operator of a mind control programme. Firstly the individual under control would be less inclined to fight the control if it appeared to be coming naturally from their own unconscious, and secondly were they to be caught and questioned their captors would find little evidence of the programming as the individual would be completely unaware of the process. This would allow them to pass lie detector tests, truth drugs and even torture thereby protecting the controllers.

The process of accessing the unconscious is the basis for the conditioning requirements already stated. Research carried out on meditation practitioners found that there are key brain waves and neural centres that are indicative of communication between the unconscious and conscious minds and that these can be triggered in anybody by the use of repetitive beats, controlled breathing, strenuous exercise and the like, and it was also found that these processes could be replicated. Having established this communication there are several researched methods of implanting controls including hypnotic suggestion, implantation of a radio frequency (RF) chip and similar techniques. Through accessing in the unconscious mind and embedding instructions or control mechanisms it is perfectly plausible to envision a situation where an individual could be modified and programmed at an early age, function apparently normally for a number of years and then be activated by a radio command signal or voice message to perform a specific set of actions, before being decommissioned once the programme was complete. It is certainly an interesting concept.
