Stages of Programming/Brainwashing<br />
We have been able to uncover eight stages in most cases of programming<br />
and brainwashing. The eight stages are listed here and more<br />
fully explained below.<br />
1. Ideational or ideological components (choosing a thematic focus).<br />
2. Rationalizing the ideas and/or techniques.<br />
3. Using mood-induction techniques and facilitate distorted views<br />
of target parent.<br />
4. Using sympathy-creating techniques (brainwashing).<br />
5. Gaining compliance with parent’s own belief system and desires.<br />
6. Testing effectiveness (feedback assessment by programmer/<br />
brainwasher).<br />
7. Measuring loyalty.<br />
8. Escalating/intensifying/broadening/generalizing<br />
9. Maintenance (including continuation and/or modification of<br />
particular themes/brainwashing techniques).
