Down the Rabbit Hole: Traditionalism, Nationalism, Falun Gong, Shen Yun
This is interesting. I recently had to deal with somebody who really hates Falun Gong, so it’s on my mind. I had to try and get him to chill out, because it was affecting our outreach effort.

Brainwashing and Abuse
I’m watching this video. It’s interesting. The video is about Pavlov and coercive persuasion, in prisoner of war camps, and in cults. I wonder how much brainwashing happens to American people who somehow get associated with a wartime enemy.
