POPS The Clever Manipulation of Projection and Paranoia 
OBAMA AND THE NEO-MARXIST LEFT In order to achieve his collectivist agenda, Obama and the left need a scapegoat. Watch and see who is being scapegoated and you will understand what is now happening in this country. To maintain popular support, the dedicated socialist "needs voters to stay angry at designated class enemies. When all else fails, they will crank up the hate and the projection ; and "turn feral with frightening speed." Obama will attempt to preserve the illusion of private enterprise, even as he demonizes entrepreneurs and scapegoats them to avoid having the federal government accept its own role in the current economic crisis. Through the clever use of projection and paranoia; by scapegoating the productive and the wealthy, Obama's government will grow bigger and more powerful and never have to take responsibility for the worsening state of the economy. The necessary scapegoats are in place...let the show trials commence! via Dr.Zero's astute observation

POPSOcto-Mom and Personal Responsibility We have latched on to Suleman, I think, because it is easier and more comforting to criticize her for a feat of careless hubris than it is to deal directly with our own feats of the same.

POPSCongo, Bongo and Dead Souls Never fails to sell newspapers, the propensity of the shadow to project itself onto suitable objects of externalisation. You don't need to be a Jungian to appreciate the conceptual difference between psychological pathology as a cause for the erotic satisfaction of souls thin as words on paper in the terminal death rattle of slaughter and hatred as the final attempt to feel, and the nature of war as lived through fully human experience. It's the former Fromm addresses in The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness, the latter by those involved.

POPSPoll: Racial views steer some white Dems away from Obama I had heard about this new strategy but hadn't actually read anything someone had written. So...if you're a white Dem/Ind. and you don't vote for Obama then you're a racist/bigot. That just oozes manipulation and guilt projection. Or maybe a little psychological blackmail.

POPSAnother Funny Deal, Filipino style, my Lord, not again! Where do supposedly bright people get the idea that they can make a fool out of other people or even think of them to be thick? Is this some kind of the psychological projection, where you think others are as thick or as dense as you are? (Sa lahat ng ayoko, iyong ginagawa kang tanga!)

POPSOCD Help Part 2: Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Self Help
Can people with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder cure themselves of their behavior? In this free podcast, radio counselor Roy Masters explores the possibility of overcoming all the effects of OCD. This is Part 2 in a podcast series on "OCD Help." Part 1 can be found at http://roymasters.blogspot.com. Chris has been dealing with OCD for over 10 years. Roy explains that obsessive compulsive behavior and thoughts are usually preceded by depression and guilt. OCD, in effect, is a form of psychological projection. While some people project their guilt onto other people, those suffering from OCD project guilt onto an idea that can then be obsessed over. By getting resentfully tied up with this idea or repetitive action, the obsessive compulsive mind is distracted away from the pain that guilt causes their conscience. Would you like to discover true self help, and be free of your obsessive compulsive thoughts for good? Listen to this podcast!
