Psycler - pedaling through the psycho babble of a media distorted reality

I have a lot to say about a lot of things. I think the world is a fucked up place and we're all under the influence of mind control and social conditioning via the use of media, religion, education and chemically induced genetic manipulation.
If you can't understand me then you have been programmed and are sadly lost to us.
If you understand me then ask yourself what you did today to change things and that's the best you can do.

Witness says Kazaa activity can be monitored


Astroturfing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In politics and advertising, the term astroturfing describes formal public relations (PR) campaigns which seek to create the impression of being a spontaneous, grassroots behavior. Hence the reference to the "AstroTurf" (artificial grass) is a metaphor to indicate "fake grassroots" support.

The goal of such campaign is to disguise the agenda of a political client as an independent public reaction to some political entity —a politician, political group, product, service, event. Astroturfers attempt to orchestrate the actions of apparently diverse and geographically distributed individuals, by both overt ("outreach," "awareness," etc.) and covert (disinformation) means. Astroturfing may be undertaken by anything from an individual pushing their own personal agenda through to highly organised professional groups with financial backing from large corporations.
