What Kind Of People Are The Easiest To Control?

[Little Red Wagon Repairman]

I'd have to say homeless people. Listen to them, really listen to them, always keep in mind how damaged and afflicted they are, pretend to respect them, remove responsibility for their situation pinning the blame on someone else, give them new names and identities, introduce them to a few acquaintances but not close friends, family members, or love interests, do not allow them to clean or groom themselves, have different purities of heroin to soothe them when they are good or to hot shot them if you feel they may talk to the police. At a certain point any additional investment in food or money could turn out to be very shrewd.

I will confess that the lady who got in trouble for talking about Benjamins did have a point. The card was flung to shut her up.

All of them.
You know.. when people no longer have to be paid to shill for a belief, a product or anything.. that they are controlled quite nicely.
When one of your acquaintances converts to a different religion for their significant other,
When your friends are extolling the virtues of their particular political views,

when 8ch isnt just a gathering place for hate and politics, but now a recruiting ground for church shooters,
when that rich kid is fighting for the poor and the hobo is wearing 200$ Jordans,

when 60 years ago it was not acceptable to be around other races but now the front page promotes racial cuckoldry,
When star wars originally was about a mystical religion of laser-sword knights and is now about social justice and jokes,

when shooters used to have secret areas and free exploration and now just guide you on rails to the next cutscene,
when people apologize and defend shitty products that cost A LOT,

Then you know.
It didnt evolve this way, it was steered and mind controlled over time.

So.. everyone. Arent we all indoctrinated to differing degrees?

The weakminded people I would say

California White Liberal Fruit Loops who are obsessed with the impression they make in front of others. They actually bent over and welcomed the new 12 cent per gallon gas tax. No wonder Texas wants nothing to do with us.

Dino: the last time the Federal Gax Tax was raised was .. 1993. Meanwhile, inflation increased 73 percent since that time. People bitch and moan about the crumbling bridges, and potholes. Well, where do you think that money comes from? I'm fine with paying for infrastructure repairs via a gas tax, because yeah - I use the roads.

I’m a reasonable guy who’s willing to pay his fair share but that doesn’t mean I should give consent to Sacramento every time they want to penetrate my bank account through the back door. I was just in Texas and I personally witnessed much better roads and highways that you know cost way less.

How much is too much and when is the time to give them the finger when try to chisel another handout? The higher the price on gas the higher the price on everything else as well. Jerry Brown would be tickled pink if gas were $16 per gallon. I guess the game show host is an upgrade.

It’s not an all or nothing situation. We have no balance in government here. Two party rule is bad enough. One party rule isn’t progress either.

You and me are not planets apart. We just feel different on where to put a decimal point.

Easiest to control? Great question. I'd say it's those who want to advance to the next rung up the ladder. In other words, those who will "play the game" to get more of something. It's hard to control someone who doesn't want anything more. Since most of us (OK, some of us) realize that the game is fixed, those who pull the strings can rather easily get the masses to dance and sing to get some more trinkets. Especially in the developed world (U.S., Europe, etc.), what with all of our first world problems (like not having enough "friends" on Facebook or the passenger-side window in the Bimmer goes down too slow), people are becoming easier to control IMO. Want of possessions, drugs, money, fame, status and/or position all lead people to being controllable.

BTW, having volunteered around the homeless and street people for a few months now, I haven't found that they're all that controllable. Especially those who are dealing with mental illness (which is a lot of them), they will just go their own way if they feel like "the man" is leaning on them too much. What I mean is, once a man walks away from society and starts living in a cardboard box, you're not going to push him but so far, and you sure as hell can't lead him very far. How does the song go? When you ain't got nothing, you got nothing to lose.

When I used to have one of those job thingys I either got paid to make people feel better or make people feel worse being a personal trainer or work security-type jobs. I had a job in Austin, Texas working at a topless joint called The Yellow Rose. I was working one night and the only gal in the place that I had an ounce of respect for comes running my way crying her eyes out. She pointed at this guy and told me he bit her on the behind. That set me off and I went right to his table and let him know what he did. He was a VIP and thought he didn't need to listen. I picked him up like a baby out of his chair, spun him around, ran him to the front, and opened the heavy wooden door with the crown of his head then threw him down the stairs. I got fired. My GM who fired me told me I belonged at a shithole called The Back Room. Shitholes are my favorite places to work because the cops don't give a shit and arrest people after you softened them up first. Fun job and I also got outside jobs from my new GM for some decent paying private security gigs.

I finally got homesick and came back to California. When I got back my best friend of 12 years, Nazi Tarzan, pretty much begged me and manipulated me to work with him at the place he was at. The guy he partnered up with was a loudmouth New York type who, when he did some shit, he would always do it in front of a bunch of witnesses. He ended up in jail with the other retards who do shit in front of a bunch of witnesses. He should have known if you intend to put someone in the hospital you drag them out back to the darkest corner where the smell of piss is the strongest. You know you did it right if the smell of piss gets even stronger. Anyway I did my Nazi brother a favor and decided to help him out.

My first day working there was St Patrick's Day dealing with a bunch of blowhard Micks who like beating their women in public. I threw a few potatoes and later on I had to take down an ex-employee who wanted to beat up his old GM which was my new one. [NOBABE]Money talks[/NOBABE].

The biggest problem with the place was the amount of homeless people. It was in Santa Monica. The SMPD cops were nice fellas but most weren't worth a shit. I got no help from them dealing with the homeless. One day this chatty homeless guy wanders over. He had a license plate around his neck that said Jesus. I always thought Jesus might have a use for me one day so we met. He told me in a raspy voice, "My name is Jesus Christ." I said, "Nice to meet you. I'm Satan. Would you like to be my friend?" He agreed and nodded his head. Jesus seemed like the type who might be decent at organizing and peel off some of the less addled hobos. This ended up working pretty well. I had my own pack of hobos to keep the stinkier ones away. Only cost me some Coca-Cola, French Fries, and me treating my hobos with respect as men. Poor Jesus was the one who got hot shotted on the beach after he snitched on the wrong bum to the cops. He was a nice guy. I couldn't control the other hobos but I controlled him and he controlled the other hobos. Unable to find a new Messiah subordinate so I took off to a better job even getting a stellar reference from the useless cops.

Funny story about one of the hobos. There was this drunk Australian guy that got tossed out almost at my feet while I stood at the front door. He was on the public sidewalk but kept pacing around in front of me. I didn't really care for it. He walks up to me and says, "Bum a fag, mate?" I said, "What the fuck you say?" He repeats it. I didn't smoke cigarettes so he couldn't bum a fag but there was a fag bum about 50 feet from me that I waved over. He took the Aussie by the arm seeming to help him then the two of them walked between our building and next door. Something very loving but non-consensual occurred. Sorry there, Outback Jack, but that's not a knoife either.

People that are desperate, scared, or stupid people that under the Dunning Kruger Effect and can't tell how stupid they are. Also people that have a lot of hate and will actively spite themselves or go against their own self interest because it's more important to hurt another person or another side than to do well by themselves or everybody as a whole. People that want demagoguery instead of the truth and having to face some sacrifices are easy targets. People that don't want to do any self-reflection or won't accept any blame for themselves. People that will double down on their own stupidity instead of admitting they were wrong even when obviously factually so.

I also find it's often a large combination of the above. Hateful people are often scared and stupid for instance. People losing out in a demographic change are so often all of the above desperate, scared, and stupid.

Basically what it boils down to through observing people in my life both personally and in media I find the people easiest to control are the ones that want to be told what they want to hear and not the truth. Just lie and tell those people what they want to hear and they can be putty in somebody else's hands. They will make up excuses for you and go out of their way to ignore reality just because they don't want to face and inconvenient truth for themselves.

So many people don't want to be the bad guys, they can just be lied to and told they aren't until they are in so deep their souls are practically owned by somebody else, at which point they won't change for that reason.

Not moderate religious people but religious fanatics. I have some Bible-Thumping Church Of Christ Texas Redneck kinfolk from my mother's side. My mother got the Hell out of small town Texas at 17 years old but the rest of the 'necks stayed there continuing to pervert the image of Jesus.

Anyway, my Uncle, Aunt, and 2 retarded cousins came to LA for a visit at my mom's house. I came by to see those goobers as I haven't been around them for years. As they were praying in a tight knit group tight enough to let us know me and my mom were excluded they were also giving us the stink eye. I don't care but I didn't appreciate the lack of respect shown to my mother.

On the morning they left my uncle noticed the side door on his Ford Aerostar minivan was popped open. He came in the house and told us. Showing fake concern, I leaned over and asked my uncle, "Uhhhhh, Richard, you don't have a bunch of Holy Books in that van of your's, do you?" I knew he did. I continued, "You do realize my driveway has a 5 pointed star on it and your Holy Books must have angered what is beneath the ground." I'm not much for long goodbyes and they also seemed in a hurry to get the fuck out.

Truth is at around 4AM while everyone was sleeping I was the one who popped open the door.
