This article is in regards to Olivia Newton-John's daughter Chloe Lattanzi.

Whatever you do can influence others! That's the media and advertising giants spend millions of dollars researching the psychological behavior of people, how colors, shapes and sound effect their emotions and physical senses. Therefore, by understanding the reactions of emotions and physical senses, the industries can trigger or influence, in the subconscious levels, behaviors, desires, and decisions in purchasing products.

With the physical senses, you see people purchasing impulsively; they buy by sight, color, shape, etc., the ‘ooh’ factor, like kids in a candy shop. They buy for status, “I ‘gotta’ have that!” In the subconscious level, they desire to be like so and so, or in the ‘in crowd’.  They visualize themselves like or equal to a know celebrity, or clique.

Some buy to feel good, or safe. The emotions, here you find people saying or thinking, if I buy these features with this car, or this gadget for this or that product, it will protect me, make me feel comfortable, happy, etc., etc.

You could scream all the freedom of expression you want. And I’m for freedom of expression. You might think that it was done in fun, and it could be. But whatever you do whether in ignorance or not, you will have influence over someone, eventually, to make the wrong choice. You might not even be aware of the occurrence.

The reasons we have debt crisis, murder, rape, disrespect for others, people stealing, children having babies, disregard for authorities, you name it, is due largely by the influence of others, Hollywood, Advertising industries, music, art, etc.

We should use our freedom of speech to influence others in a positive way, not in a way that would hurt others. Eventually, whether here or in the afterlife, “…You will reap what you sow!”

This video will impact some people in the wrong way, but once dead, it will be too, late to change your mind. Ops!
