Goose stepping may have encouraged people to follow Nazis

Too me this is just another sign that the Jews are panicked that pissed off people are going to finger them again for their crimes.  It's a "pre-emptive" article in the propaganda wars.

Goose stepping may have encouraged people to follow Nazis
Goose-stepping in unison may have been used by the Nazis to help brainwash people into following their cause, a new study suggests.

Researchers have found that if groups perform tasks in unison, such as marching, dancing and chanting, they show more loyalty towards each other and are less likely to go against the norm.

The findings, published in New Scientist, could explain why the likes of Hitler and Mussolini both seemingly had the ability to bend millions of people to their will.

Dr Scott Wiltermuth, of Stanford University in California and colleagues, have found that activities performed in unison, such as marching or dancing, exercise a form of mind control over people.

"It makes us feel as though we're part of a larger entity, so we see the group's welfare as being as important as our own," he said.

Dr Wiltermuth's team separated 96 people into four groups who were then asked to perform different tasks together.

They included listening to a song while silently mouthing the words, singing along, singing and dancing, or listening to different versions of the song so that they sang and danced out of synchronisation.

In a later game, when asked to decide whether to stick with the group or strive for personal gain, those in the non-synchronised group behaved less loyally than the rest.

The research helps explain why fascist leaders, amongst others, use organised marching and chanting to whip crowds into a frenzy of devotion to their cause, say researchers.

Interest in the idea of a herd mentality has been renewed by work that suggests that our brains are geared to mimic our peers.

Vasily Klucharev, at the Donders Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging in Nijmegen, the Netherlands, found that the brain releases more of the reward chemical dopamine when we fall in line with the group consensus.

His team asked 24 women to rate more than 200 women for attractiveness.

If a participant discovered their ratings did not tally with that of the others, they tended to readjust their scores.

When a woman realised her differing opinion, fMRI brain scans revealed that her brain generated what the team dubbed an "error signal".

This has a conditioning effect, said Dr Klucharev. "It's how we learn to follow the crowd."

The Macarena is also sometimes cited by many as being the beginning of the downfall of modern civilization.

As of 1997, the song had sold 11 million copies. While having only a 25% take in royalties from the song, Romero and Ruiz became immensely wealthy. According to the BBC News Service, during the year 2003 alone — a full decade after the song's initial release — Romero and Ruiz made USD $250,000 in royalties. The Macarena dance craze is subject to much controversy since its mid-90's release. Terrorists who blew up a Cheezee Charles Pizza restaurant in San Diego were said to have been heavily influenced by the Macarena in their decision to go on a terror spree. The Macarena is also sometimes cited by many as being the beginning of the downfall of modern civilization. In recent years, there has been a backlash against expectant mothers who play The Macarena through headphones over their tummies in order to stimulate their childrens' peripheral vision. Julio Iglesias is quoted as congratulating the duo personally: "My success singing in English from Miami is nothing compared to yours; coming out of Dos Hermanas with little international exposure elsewhere and selling these many records in Spanish takes two huge sets of cojones.[4]"

In VH1's 2002 documentary 100 Greatest One-hit Wonders, Macarena was ranked as #1. Macarena was also ranked #1 on a different VH1 documentary, 40 Awesomely Bad No. 1 Songs

Tolstoy in his book war and peace explained that if you are surrounded by people marching, you  will also feel obliged to march with them,through youre subconcious fear of not fitting in.
so its not the marching itself that encouraged people to follow Nazis or anybody else.
it is fear.
I never read that 1500,000 page book all the way through.I just read the epilogues and all the introductions he writes before each book.

all I know is that around 95% of the goy will be marchers even if they know it.they will go along with it.
Another thing I see is that the water that comes out my tap is a cloudy gray colour.
