The perception of reality
A selected list including social engineering, mind control, dissociative disorder and mind programming. All surrounding the concept of what is reality. To my comprehension "reality is a shared perception". To know reality we need at least one other person to confirm it. Tricky, isn't it? Mind can be hacked and reality can be relative. As Noam Chompsky argues in Manufacturing Consent. If you control the ideas of a person you do not need to control his body by force. If consent can be manufactured, reality can be manufactured too. Sounds like pure manipulation? How we know we are not already programmed to believe what we believe and to see things they way we see them?
