You should look up microwave technology. How it can change behavior over time or even at will. The military has been expanding it since ww2. They supposedly have it to the point where tiny microwaves can be in a military mans helment and make him behave more aggressively. Used for protests as well.

I feel ya. If anything I think we’re being brainwashed. Look at the techniques abusers use and the effect on victims. It’s what I see happening to the populace. The goal is to break people down, not trust their own instincts or value, basically enslave to the abuser. it’s working.

Of course people are hypnotized. A couple of posters in the comments think that this is achieved through subliminal messaging, or something even more grandiose, but that's just overestimating the capabilities of marketing. It's literally as simple as cleverly seeding an idea into someone's head through a piece of media.

It's more a case of inculturation. Culture works like this; people see someone doing something which they then copy - they then gain a reward for copying it. This can be repeating memes or acting out tropes they have seen in the media. It's an essential human trait for survival, but it can also be open to manipulation.

Everything you all ever have experienced since the first/last time you took LSD, is a part of the trip that you think have ended. You are still on the trip. READ THIS

Humans are creatures of habit you don't have to hypnotize them all you have to do is trick them into doing things a few times then habit kicks in

i think people who have any species of "Live, Laugh, Love" word art in their homes are devil worshippers

and they must be cleansed

What do you mean, “what if”?

NPCs, in video games, are non-player characters. They’re inserted into a game to populate the world and give it a feeling of life and fullness. They are, of course, completely unconvincing at this, as there are only a limited number of responses that the programmers can ever give to one (or more) computer characters. These responses eventually exhaust themselves and the NPCs begin repeating identical phrases no matter what you try to do or how many times you activate them.

There are NPCs in the real world.

There are people who autonomously follow groupthink and social trends in order to appear convincingly human. They have no thoughts of their own. They do not create, they do not discuss, they do not change, and they barely even reason. When you talk to them they say the same thing every time. “TRUMP IS HITLER”, “JUST BE YOURSELF”, “SPORTSBALL”, "LIVE AND LET LIVE", “THE NEW ADELE SONG XD OMG.” If you get in a discussion with them, it's always the same buzzwords and hackneyed arguments. They’re the kind of people who make a show of discomfort when you break the status quo to invoke a real discussion. Sometimes they won’t even respond correctly. It’s terrifying, actually. If you were to ask about politics, they would reply with sports. Ask about economics, they’ll reply with mindless minutiae about their personal lives. Try to get them to care about the invasion of Europe and they’ll start humming.

Emotional problem solving at a mob level is the goal of Marketing. Which manufactures petty jealousy that compels oneupmanship and impulse purchases.

Digital media works best with 60 fps for subliminal messaging to get over 90% of the victims manipulated. Gaming is the single best delivery. Better than than porn and only second to date rape drugs.

What if the majority of people are all hypnotized?

That belongs on the Keanu conspiracy meme.
