All of the following is from personal experience. Take what I say and compare it to your personal experiences. Shouldn't all information be filtered like this? If it speaks true so be it, if not, fine go ahead and move on.

One situation I would like to share, so I can relate to the programming and mind control topic is watching tv high.

I remember specifically, when commercials would come on, I would get disgusted at the commercial, feel irritated and unruly, and want to change the channel. I realized, damn these people are taking time out of my life to try and make my mind purchase their product. Usually they would tie some sort of emotion to the product. This is fucked, I don't want to buy your shit. Stop trying to take advantage of my emotions! And to sit through 5 mins of this commercial propaganda for things I honestly don't need. UGH I couldn't stand it at all.

So from that experience, weed has helped me see the "hidden agenda" I always ask the question, "what are you/they trying to make me think?" "what are you/they trying to make me believe and why?" Weed has helped enable me to ask questions, and internalize thoughts.
