Brainwashing

Mind Control is also known as Brainwashing, brain control, menticide, brain sweeping, coercive persuasion, thought control, thought reform, and re-education. Brainwashing is the concept that the human mind can be altered or controlled by certain psychological techniques, covert or overt that is used without the awareness of the person or to force them against their own will. Mind control reduces a persons ability to think critically or independently, to allow the introduction of new, unwanted thoughts and ideas into the subject’s mind, as well as to change his or her attitudes, values, and beliefs.[1]
