How much repetition and shaming does it take to break a mind down?

Asking for a friend.

In all seriousness, though, we see ridiculous levels of repetition in media, of things many would be opposed to, and even worse levels of shaming you in that same media if you think those things are wrong, until the things become accepted or at least tolerated.

For a smaller scale example,

In my own life with someone who had learned to apply the technique to essentially everything...

They brought me into a security room and showed me video of my having entered that building about ten times.


First, they screamed and berated me for having been in the building.

Then they asked if I had been in the building, in a tone that indicated I should be deeply ashamed if I had been.

By the end of the two-hour session, I was sitting there, watching video of myself walk into the building on the screen, and swearing up and down that I would never do that and had never been in the building because I wasn't a bad person, despite the evidence in front of both of us.

By the very end, we walked out with me ready to argue vehemently and tell the world with 100% certainty that I had never been in that building, because I "wasn't that type of person."

Obviously, in my case, the effects eventually wore off. I know I had been in that building and will now admit to it. But in how many people do they fail to wear off?

I guess I am slow intellect then.It were a big joker meme shark tooth grin that said Safety In Silence
And that was it.

Watch i'll just repost this same reponse again and once more and it will be more welcomed..

This actually is from some of my graduate work. You can read more about this from Skinner.. but repetition, while from where you are sitting might seem like it is breaking down a mind... what is really happening is that for whatever reason, and there have been many experiments on this.. when something is repeated in specific intervals it becomes more likable and welcomed by the mind. Repetition of any form works this way but there is a full science to exactly how to best do it for the largest cross section to have the highest statistically significant effect in the population you trying to reach. So you can maximize your efforts and power depending on your resources.

... and, yes, I am perfectly aware that it was the CIA that asked the OP question, trying to figure out new (previously unknown) ways of psychologically manipulating its targets, but that's the beauty of it.

CIA can't use this method without destroying itself in the process.

This strategy is (also) unbeatable.

In fact, it's like manipulating the CIA into turning the barrel of a gun toward itself and pulling the trigger in order to check if there's a bullet in the chamber.

Duffy Duck all the way, CIA!

I'm CIA, eh?

Well, let's consider this and look at all of the facts.

A. I've been inside Skull and Bones - that's 1 point for CIA

B. I've never received a paycheck from the CIA or gov - is that a point or a minus point?

C. I grew up with a recruiter who definitely worked for them during parts of her career - is that a point or no point?

D. My first childhood memories were in a war zone - point or no point?

E. I do not like their tactics, their methodology, or how they are poisoning and robbing their own country as well as other countries - point or no point?

F. I do know a ton of their tactics, but I grew up in one of their offices - point or no point?

What's the score?



Am I CIA?

So you just made up this story , right ?

Am I?

...


God knows. Did I ever tell you the story of the spook who was sure some dude she met in a park was also a spook because he shared all of the same traits and tactics.

Turned out, he was literally just a bum.

(And, no, I am not the she in this story...in case our Serbian friend from a few posts up is asking)

...


So You are the bum in this story?
