This show -- this scene in particular -- made me understand how sleeper agents work. It's not magic, they don't just suddenly become brainwashed when they hear a special word. They are just brainwashed to believe so deeply that their mission is so crucially important, they will spend their entire lives waiting for the signal to do their part, no matter what that is.
@@alexjeffrey3981 Everyone believes in a cause. It's perfectly normal to advocate and promote a cause that matters to you, even at great personal sacrifice. What _isn't_ normal is believing that you're cause is so much more important than everyone else's that you're willing to make a unilateral decision to kill millions of people without letting them have any say. That's the sign of someone who's been brainwashed.
@@FeathersMcGraw_ everybody believes their cause is more important than other people's, that's why it's theirs. Yeah killing large numbers of people is obviously bad but that's not what OP was criticising.
This is how you write a good villain. None of these people believe they are the bad guys, and they have a persuasive argument for their cause that I have heard people actually believing in and expressing (in real life). Their moral perspective is unfortunately also very close to that of our political class who are so high on sniffing their own farts that they believe they are above morality because their goals are so grandiose. There are other grand goals that are popular now and that encourage the same psychopathic traits among the followers, climate change being one, fighting nazis (usually defined as people not agreeing with the current thing), preventing the rise of China or Russia (US project, but the rest of the west is dragged into it) or serving their more explicit higher purpose (like religion or separatist ambitions). The believers of these causes, at least large groups within this category, always motivate oppression, violence etc with their greater cause, including acts of terror. And none of them consider themselves as evil, and many of them have persuasive arguments that will convince at least some to join them.
>preventing the rise of China or Russia Russia being one of the most unbridled sociopathic regimes on Earth, fostering corruption across the entire Western hemisphere, what exactly are you arguing here?
I’m sorry…you genuinely with all your heart believe that people trying to fight the over-reach of fascism…and campaigning to slow climate change…is psychopathic? You might as well have been describing yourself in the comment with your own grandiose and morally superior worldview…except in your case you assume you’re right because you are in the special position of lacking morals so you think somehow you’ve cracked the code. What a pathetic sociocidal existence you must lead.
The BP studies she refers to were my bible during my studies. We had to read them every day and talk about this stuff in college. BP brings out a very thick book every year. People should read this instead of "the news".
@@franckybosnie The best source is your next college library. Or Google "Shell youth study" You can also go to www.shell.de/ueber-uns/shell-jugendstudie.html for a quick summary. The site might be in German but under DOWNLOADS you´ll find a summary in English. However it is concerned mainly with youth development and often refers to the ressource problems, but you have to read a lot. Those are big fucking books :D

Advertise scarcity to manufacture consent for monstrous actions so the people at the top can remain their in perpetuity. The idea that these people are "saving the species" is blatant hubris at it's worst. They just want to ensure their seat at the table when the dust settles.
Much of the Network is dedicated simply to the one goal of reducing the population. Milner even authorizes the immediate release of the modified Russian Flu after finding out it will probably kill a majority of humanity, not unlikely including herself and vast parts of the Network because the vaccine will only protect Roma, not just keep only them fertile. Furthermore a lot of the higher ups of the Network are so old they wouldn't be around for resource shortages and the possible wars those might bring, so they don't really benefit from it. Sure there are some members of the Network that only joined because they wanted power (a good example is Geoff) but most members either truly believe this is the right thing to do or have been brainwashed into it. This is what makes it so scary, these people don't operate on the simple goal of getting and retaining power, they truly believe they are a necessary evil and are doing what's needed to save the human race.
To try and be God is to become Satan himself. This is about doing the right thing. Choosing the right morality, having humanity. No human has any right to take the life of another, whether that be for any untold reason. This is our fundamental and a unique design however, we live in a system that perpetuates the absolute opposite.
@@azizdragoon The vast majority of what they had planned wasn't violent. If it wasn't for the main characters' actions, there would have been almost no violence at all.
It actually angers me how underrated this show is and the fact it is off the air. So much atoryline and places it could go
If Channel 4 hadn't hired series 2 in the middle of the summer, it might've gotten better ratings.
Kind of like how it's happening now.
@@core2611 sadly no one knows
It only needed one season to tell the general public what's in store for them. Predictive programming exists.

"brainwashing", ie, believing in a cause. The idea that people believe in a cause must have been tricked into it is kinda cringe.

Technically, they weren't trying to kill anyone. On the contrary, they would save countless lives over time.

Oil is the second largest liquid on earth and it does not come from dinosaurs
I mean what other liquids are there it's just water and oil really there's no oceans of piss or oil
Maybe not dinosaurs. Trees maybe. Coal comes from the trees of the carboniferous. I don't see a reason why oil isnt
oil is formed from fossilized remains of organic lifeforms, mainly huge amounts of plankton and algae.
