About the blog.

   This post isn't about cool-aid.  I may have that backwards.

   It's about how someone can end up believing their mind is being controlled.

   The title should be Mind Control but "leading a horse to water" best explains how it works.

   After we've known someone for awhile (actually know them and haven't been self absorbed the whole time) we develop an understanding of them.  It's directly related to the empathy we have and whether we make use of it or not.

   That understanding makes it possible to effectively read a person's mind.

   There's no magic or telepathy of any kind involved.

   There's no explanation of physics needed either.

   So without picking out a fancy technology or technique...  what would it take to cause another person to think their mind was being controlled?

   Just put a thought of your own selection in their head.  Having inside knowledge about the person makes that even easier to do.  Inside knowledge makes it possible to bring a thought someone already has from the back of their mind to the front.

   I doubt anyone will agree with me at first...  but this is how to leverage a person into self-hypnosis.

   Kinda scary isn't it?

   At that point you've taken control of their mind by a single thought.

   Full control becomes a matter of quantity over quality.

   But quality is how to see your way through the deception (if it ever happens to you).

   Making them aware of what you've done is all that's left.

The people I know with answers won't give them when asked.  So I have a few Questions.
