Conditioning and the Manufactured Culture of Fear: From the Cradle to the Grave

Above are pictures from the 1960's of young adults and children waiting fearfully for the bomb that never came. They are probably all now in their sixties and seventies.

So never mind if the security people are juggling your testicles or massaging your wife's breasts to check you out, because it is for your own safety, even though they have never successfully thwarted a single attack.  Conditioning is an interesting study. If people are fearful, they will not only give up their freedom, but will throw money at security theater to make them feel safe, even if they are not. After all, these are the safety/security experts, aren't they??
