I love the principles of human psychology. Politicians and Pastors love it and utilize the principles to hold people to perpetual slavery.
I studied Pavlov and Skinner in their experimentation on classical and operant conditioning.
Humans can be conditioned to behavioural responses. Why would anyone in his right senses jubilate over THE REFURBISHING OF NINE HOSPITALS, DUALIZATION OF ROADS, SINKING OF BOREHOLES in 2013 if he has not been conditioned by prolonged ABJECT POVERTY and DENIALS to start applauding irrelevant things?
Ugandans flock to the churches to jubilate and dedicate CARS, COMMISSION HOUSES and GIVE TESTIMONIES FOR FOREIGN VISAS received because they have been conditioned to see such as great events.
We are just Conditioned Simpletons and would remain at the low lying stage deliberately conditioned and enslaved by the POLITICIANS and PASTORS that we celebrate irrelevant events.
Until we break the shackles, free ourselves and see the light, we would be used as puppets for more experimentations. Ask Pavlov’s dogs and Skinner’s rats. Recently a 3km by 3km experimental block is being designed by one of the puppeteers for further enslavements. You are an experimental unit.
To the uninitiated, airports, roads, cars, houses are not luxuries in most places all over the world. They are necessary for you to live a quality life and governments and people do not celebrate patched roads nor glorified bus stations as airports. The world has moved beyond that.
Building nine national hospitals is doing us no favour, that’s a basic function of every government, having pot-hole free roads is not worth celebrating over. The world over has moved beyond that. Enough of that conditioning. We are worth more than Pavlov’s dogs and Skinner’s rats.
