    Not at the moment but it will be a reality in your lifetime.

    Without a doubt.

    The flouride in our water is a plot by the government to keep us calm. You should not drink tap water. Buy bottled water instead.

    RTÉ send subliminal message which tell us to vote FF in the run up to elections.

    Yes, its very true. For example, Paedophiles, tend to get in contact with young children because the mind has not fully developed and is open to exploitation. The human mind is not fully developed until the mid 20's.

    Here is the information you seek:

    I hope you're ok and that no one is harming you.

    What do you think you're doing now? You decided to ask an internet forum. Who are influenced by other means of media which is a type of mind control.

    That that's kind of like what happens in a relationship between a sociopath and and its victim. But 'mind control' is a little drastic, 'manipulation' is more fitting.

    If it was that easy to control minds then every Johnny Vegas lookalike would have every girl convinced he's in fact a Johnny Depp lookalike.

    If 22% of the population vote FF at the next election we can, indeed, conclude that mind control exists.

    I want to say no, but for some reason am typing a longer answer in an attempt to be funny.

    Control is a very subjective term.

    The media can be controlled and influence the masses.
    Eg. before the budget comes out in December you'll see the likes of reports showing that inflation is down/cost of living is low type of reports... that we're 10% better off now than we were 5 years ago. That sort of spin.
    Just before they hammer everyone with more cuts.

    There's also a difference between being controlled and being dependant.
    A lot of unemployed are dependant on State aid, they're not being controlled as such.

    Or people with poor financial situations are not being "controlled" by banks, they are just not stable and profitable targets for the banks.

    You need to be successful to have more control of your own destiny.
