Does Integrity Exist in our Education System? - Day 330

 

 

Continuing with my 2 previous blogs:

The Devolution Process of the Education System - Day 328

The Wakening of the Beast - Day 329

 

And if you haven't already, I suggest reading through the following blogs for further perspective on the points I'm about to share:

Day 328: Noam Chomsky Quote Experiment on Quora with Anonymous

Day 329: When Anonymous Acted like Hitler on Quora

Day 330: To Write with Principle and Integrity on Quora

Day 331: The Cancer Experiment

 

For those of you who are not aware, the Destonians and thus myself, were participating in an Experiment taken place on one of the Social Networks called Quora. What is interesting about Quora is the Diversity of Educated beings from across the globe, who are coming together and having respectful discussions between themselves. We joined these discussions and were satisfied from the Quora Platform of communication until one day, our old Anonymous "friend" came to Quora to make another attempt to diminish our group through preaching Fear, Harassment and Hate Speech. What the Anonymous 'Friend' didn't take into consideration was the Training Process he indirectly put us through during the past few years and how our Stand within who we are, our level of communication and our Strength as a group became significant, through each one of his attempts to bring us down. But anyway, this is not the point of this blog.
 

What I found fascinating with this experiment was seeing the Educated beings falls one by one into the trap of Fear that activated their blunt self interest. What was even more fascinating was seeing how they had justified the abuse that the current capitalistic system is creating through their so called 'Higher level of Education' credentials.

This Experiment shows exactly what Chomsky meant when speaking the following words:

"Mass education was designed to turn independent farmers into docile, passive tools of production. That was its primary purpose. And don't think people didn't know it. They knew it and they fought against it. There was a lot of resistance to mass education for exactly that reason. It was also understood by the elites. Emerson once said something about how we're educating them to keep them from our throats. If you don't educate them, what we call "education," they're going to take control -- "they" being what Alexander Hamilton called the "great beast," namely the people. The anti-democratic thrust of opinion in what are called democratic societies is really ferocious. And for good reason. Because the freer the society gets, the more dangerous the great beast becomes and the more you have to be careful to cage it somehow."

If one take a moment to watch the Documentary: The College Conspiracy,  one would be able to understand how the Mass crowd is control and enslaved through our Education System that places the required Filters for one to Believe only that which exists in one's mind despite the Physical evidence that shows the exact opposite. Accordingly, one would justify the System and deny the Consequences the system creates by the necessary rewards the system would give to those that submit. The specific 'how' that is done is revealed is the Documentary 'The Century of the Self' and the Success of the Brainwash was shown to us on the Qoura Experiment.

 

The Educated beings on Qoura, couldn't step beyond their Learnt limitation of how they see the world and within that, couldn't practice Reasoning thinking or Critical thinking for themselves. That in itself question the Education System because we could expect educated beings to develop some form of Reasoning thinking or at least take a moment to actually investigate the point they were exposed to for the first time before jumping to conclusions and making the decision to completely deny and ignore new information.

 

I have witnessed Educated beings, CEO, mangers, Engineers, scientists etc. on Qoura, reacting to their Fear of Equality without even questioning the origin of the Fear they experienced and so thus, are in complete control of the System of Abuse that exploit these fear for the maintenance of the Beasts.

 

Another point we can see is the Power of the Crowd that can be extremely vicious when it comes to the protection of one's self interest. The Anonymous, who is paid internet troll started a Propaganda on Quora against Desteni and the Equal Money System which drawn the Educated people into one unit of Abusive power. Their words, no longer represented intelligence or Integrity, their words became poison because they felt stronger with their peers coming together to defend the system of abuse and so protested against the Principle the Destonians and the Equal Money System stand for and as - Equality as what is best for all. 

 

So I'm asking - Is there Integrity in the Current Education System? The answer should be very clear - NO!

What would be the Solution? Unfortunately, a long process ahead of us as we slowly but surly remove the limitations we installed throughout our educational years and re-educate ourselves within developing Reasoning Thinking, Real Common sense and Practically apply the corrections required to sort out the mess we have created within and without. I must say - I thank the Internet trolls, I thank the Anonymous abusers that so kindly assisting and supporting us to see so clearly the solutions for the problems we face in this world. We stand stronger, we stand motivated to guide humanity into a new age of Life Skilled and Educated Humans that slowly but surely start emerging more and more and together we stand up, no longer accepting and allowing any form of abuse and thus take our power back to ourselves and correct the system to a system that support Life.

 

Will you stand with us? You Decide.

Remember to Investigate all things and keep that which is best for all. Remember to apply Jesus's Principle:

Do unto another that which you have liked to be done unto you and Love your Neighbour as yourself. After 2013 years, I would say it is time to walk the talk and establish a world that is based upon these Principles. Wouldn't you?

Problem No.2

Physical Health - Obesity Epidemic

 

Children are exposed to Mass Marketing of Sweats and Candies, Beverages and Foods with no real Nutrition Values from the moment they entered this world.

While the parent Beliefs one is reading their Child a Book that would enhance the Child's Communication, imagination and Language skills, one does not take into consideration the hidden and indirect advertisement existent in the Book's Illustrations that would influence the Child's Nutrition Choices, later on in one's Life and therefor, one's Health and Well-Being. What was supposed to be a tool of Education and Entertainment for children, transformed into a Marketing Place for the Big Corporations.

 

The US food system is the second largest advertiser in the American economy through the massive Marketing over the television, newspaper, magazine, billboard, and radio advertisements - All of which would determines one's Life without one being aware and Conscious about one's Decisions and Choices one is so dearly protest to be Free.

However, what is more concerning is the 'In-School Marketing' that includes Commercial Activities, Direct advertising and indirect advertising and Market Research with Students:

 

* International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity

 

Since the 80s, Obesity in Children at the ages of 6-19 has roughly TRIPLED:

 

Source: Childhood Obesity - US Department of Health & Human Services.

 

A literature review by Kaiser Family Foundation highlighted a number of studies that suggested that advertising influenced dietary and other food choices in children, which likely contributed to energy imbalance and weight gain. It is not surprising that Half of the advertising time on Children's TV is devoted to Food Advertising and  While fruit and vegetables as well as grains and beans are rarely aired.

 

The Marketing of the Food ads are done through 'Persuasive Appeals' such as Taste, Fun and Uniqueness. Often, Incentive are introduced like for instance McDonalds' Children Happy Meal that comes with all sorts of Games and Puppets but most importantly, the most beneficial Persuasive Appeal is through connecting the products with the Children's 'Feelings' which would Develop, Create and Design the Child to become an Effective Present and Future Consumer.

Unfortunately, what is not Seen, Realized and Understood is that Advertising directed at children within Persuasive Appealing Technics is by its very nature, Exploitative and unacceptable.

 

Obesity is a significant health problem which the Corporation Elite are form a direct part in it within our Profit Driven Capitalistic System. Obesity can lead to high Health Risk conditions such as Heart disease, stroke, High blood pressure, Diabetes, Cancer and etc.

Within that context, I suggest following Paul's Journey to Life who is working with the Consequences of high level of Sugar intake as a child that had led him to a life with Diabetes Type 1.

 

While the Research indicate specifically the correlation and relationship between Advertisement and Obesity, not much has been done to Prevent the Problem and Support with a Solution that would stop the Harm and Abuse of the Generations to come.

 

Another Problem is the Legitimate Continues Harmful Advertisement through the First Amendment of the United State's Constitution within the realm of commercial free speech. In other words, the First Amendment allow the Big Corporations make the kids suffer from Physical Health problems with a life long Consequences.

The Food and Media Corporation have repeatedly stated that their Advertisement is protected speech under the First Amendment and therefore, up until today, all attempts to Ban TV Commercials targeting Children in the US have failed  regardless the Research that were done, showing that if such era will arise where TV commercial Ads would be banned, we will see dramatic decline of Obesity cases.

 

While Children have no Real Free Choice in what they are being exposed to either at home or at their Environment, we have the power to stand up for a solution that would Prevent a future and much worsen Epidemic to a point of no Return. The Solutions are available and all we have to do is to Decide to walk the correction Process. 

 

Will Continue in the next blog to uncover the Mental Health Problems in relation to Advertisement which from there, I will move Forwards to the Solutions.

A Woman's Journey to Life - Brainwashed consumers – Part 1 – Day 19

Bachmann Achenreiner, G., & Roedder John, D. (2003). The meaning of brand names to children: A developmental investigation. Journal of Consumer Psychology 

 

Over the Years, the Corporate Profit Driven Capitalism, have evolved itself by utilizing psychologically targeted persuasive technique. That was done with the assistance of Support of Edward Bernays that had showed the American corporations how to make people want things they didn't need by linking mass produced goods to their unconscious desires. (I suggest watching the Documentary 'Century of the Self' for further Understanding of how we have been Brainwashed by the Corporations and those in Power and Control and thus blindly followed our Desires that are/were not even our own).

Throughout the Evolution of the Corporate Marketing, they had perfected their Techniques through extensive Manipulation tactics within the understanding of the Human's Functionality of the Mind into Consumerized Robots.

 

Research were conducted on the Human's Behaviour and Social trends within the starting point of what would produce the most Power and Money to the Corporations which then thus, the focus started to be on Children as not only the indirect Present consumers but the Direct Future Consumers. Accordingly, some Corporations abused this knowledge of the power of Persuasive and thus, could increase sales by Manipulating the Children in Advertisement and thus, indirectly forcing the parents to buy the goods for their children. Obviously, within a Profit Driven System, the Advertisements do not include the necessary information and Education that would provide the children and thus the Parents with the skills and tools to identify whether or not the 'Goods' would result with Harm either Mentally and/or Physically or whether, it may actually support them.

 

According to Juliet B. Schor (Schor, J. B. (2004). Born to buy. New York: Scribner):

The Estimation is that Children are exposed to about 100 Daily Commercials and thus, view, more than 40,000 a year. The Commercials are Designed specifically according to Components such as Gender, Race, Culture and Age which then thus, the influence of the Children's mind is highly Effective.

 

Research done in the 90ties shows that Children can reason and categorize objects on a conceptual basis

already at the age of 18 months old (Carey, 1985; Gelman&Coley, 1990; Mandler, Bauer,& McDonough, 1991) in other words, they are able to recognized Logos and Brand names.

For myself, when working with Children at these ages where they have already developing their Communication skills either with body Movements or Language to express their wants, needs and Desires are - unless you buy them the Dora Candy in the grocery store, you and the entire neighbourhood would hear the screaming of the baby that didn't get the Dora Candy.

 

Schor stating that:

"Upon arrival at the schoolhouse steps, the typical first grader can evoke 200 brands. And he or she has already accumulated an unprecedented number of possessions, beginning with an average of 70 new toys a year. "

http://bcm.bc.edu/issues/fall_2004/ft_schor.html

 

There is nothing Natural in the Development of a consumerism Society that is blindly abused by Deception and Manipulation of the Deliberate Unskilled individuals through Mass Marketing of the big Corporations. The Massive Brainwash start already at age 0 and without the understanding of the Relationship between the Mind and the Physical, no one is really understanding the consequences and the outflows that emerged in the long run and thus can directly connect it to the Corporate mass Advertisements that is currently protected by the First Amendment. This is unfortunate and saying that, I encourage you to start educating yourself with regards to the Relationship between the Mind and the Physical - Studies that no Scientist or Psychologist had ever reached before: Parenting - Perfecting the Human Race.

It is no wonder thus that our values system is distorted and we have no Consideration for LIFE, of those that make LIFE Possible and those who dies, day in and day out for our peruse of Happiness. Instead of Developing Real Life Skills and Intimacy with ourselves and others to become an Effective Human beings in this world that would contribute to the well beings of us all, the Children are forced to a Life of Materialism which follow a real Deep form of Ignorance which we then thus, Perceive and Define as Bliss.

 

Will Continue in the next blog to Expose the Problems in relation to Consuming Kids: Mental and Physical Health which would follow with the Presentation of Solutions Rewards within such application. So stay tuned.

Stress and Anxiety

 

I forgive myself that I've accepted and allowed myself to react in Stress and Anxiety within the Embodiment of the 'I don't have Time' Character and within that, I forgive myself that I've NOT accepted and allowed myself to investigate the nature of the Stress and Anxiety within and as me, in seeing, realizing and understanding that I've accepted and allowed Stress and Anxiety because I've Defined myself according to what I do and specifically, how others would define/judge me according to what I do and the results that I bring and thus, when and as t 'I don't have time' to finish specific task/work in time, it is due to my expectations from myself to be more effective within and as myself as well as the Fear that others would be disappointed from me because they have expected better results from me. In this, I forgive myself that I've NOT accepted and allowed myself to see that unless expectations exists, either from myself or from others, Stress and Anxiety cannot exists. Please also, Read Day 61: Anxiety Character

 

I commit myself to STOP placing Value in how others would define me according to what I do and in this, to respect myself, to value and worthy myself within Physical Self Trust in assisting and supporting myself to walk breath by breath, seeing directly the Physical Reality as what would be the best for all outcome, in any given moment.

 

I commit myself to remind myself that Who I am is not defined according to what I do but within who I am as what I do and accordingly, to always cross reference myself, in questioning myself, and the starting point that I've based my decision of walking in any given moment and accordingly, if I see in self honesty that the starting point is not aligned and that I've projected the outcome to fit with my desire to be worthy, validated and accepted by others, I correct and change the starting point immediately, in breath.

 

I forgive myself that I've accepted and allowed myself to create expectation from myself and within that, set myself in a goal of achieving these expectation, in my mind as a projection, and accordingly define myself as. In this, I forgive myself that I've accepted and allowed myself to access Stress and Anxiety when and as I'm not standing in alignment to my own goals/projections/expectations, instead of assessing whether the goals/projections/expectations that I've set forth for myself are realistic in a space/time consideration and within that, ask myself, what can I learn and correct within and as myself in how I could prioritize the time differently in aligning the space/time in a practical considerations so that the next time, I would have the sufficient time to walk through a point/task/work efficiently, specifically and effectively.

 

In this, I commit myself to transform moments of Stress and Anxiety to Gifts where I can learn, correct and perfect myself in how I look at things and make decisions, who I am within my decisions, what is my starting point and within that, align myself to self support practical consideration and application within the principle of what is best for all in any given moment, instead of Mind Self Destruction within and as for instance, accepting Stress and Anxiety to exists within and as me through a mind projections as expectations that I've set forth from the starting point of being validated, accepted and worthy in the eyes of others. .

 

I forgive myself that I've accepted and allowed the common belief that Stress is valid as it is one's catalyst and motivator for one's movement, in how one would direct and push oneself to perfect oneself however, within that, I have NOT accepted and allowed myself to realize that one do not require Stress as a motivator for one's movement because one can decide to move oneself, in all parts of oneself, in breath by breath living application as one realize one's Self Responsibility in Self honesty within and as the principle of what is best for all and in the very least, Stress as a motivator, was promoted by the world system, in how stress is connected with Money as how one would  motivate oneself in Comparison and Competition to others because one knows that unless one produce a specific outcome, one would not be rewarded and would face consequences that is not in alignment to one's self interest Desire to Survive.

 

I commit myself to further investigate the relationship between Stress, Anxiety and Money within the world system and within that, to educate myself in seeing how Stress was used throughout time to enslave and control human being for the benefit of the Elite of this world.
