Crowd Psychology & Manipulation
How the masses are manipulated.
Edward Bernays, Sigmund Freud's nephew, considered one of the fathers of the field of public relations, combining the ideas of Gustave Le Bon and Wilfred Trotter on crowd psychology with the psychoanalytical ideas of his uncle, was pretty much the first to use this field of study to manipulate public opinion via. the subconscious at the turn of the 20th century.
This is an absolute MUST SEE for anyone interested in understanding just how this diseased society came to be.

How Times Change?
When I was in school kashrima Kapoor-Govinda starred song came and it created outrage among many. The song was 'sexy sexy sexy mujhe log bole'..It created such a big issue that the song had to change to 'baby baby baby mujhe log bole'..It was pre gloablization and in those days such words were considered to be taboo..
I wonder how those people would have reacted if they see any of bookmarking sites of these days which are full of titles like hot , sexy , b** , p***y , undressing , nude , semi nude...
Sure time has changed and so has perception. What was once considered taboo words are slowly becoming usuals.. But some things dont change with time and it is objectifying of women..
Rakhi sawant's bathroom video becomes instant hit and hillary clinto's statement impacting India too goes unnoticed...
These things can't change because it is linked to basic instinct which exist since 2 lakh years.. Psychologist say that there are two basic instincts .
a) Instinct Of Survivial
b)Instinct of contuning the species...
So anything erotic , anything nude , semi nude or anything which triggers imagination in brain related to that would also create more buzz and obviously sell more...
P.S: - We have found that many people are copying from others blog including this one. Specially bookmarking site hotklix users are best in copying. Our humble request to those users is that since they have not written this post , it would be nice if they keep name of farjinews.blogspot.com in their post. Kindly abide by that...Thanking you...
