Not everything is “predictive programming”
Not everything is “predictive programming”

The term “predictive programming” is used to describe film and literature that portray dystopian futures, predict these futures…but are covertly aimed at preparing audiences to accept those futures.
Under that definition, any science fiction novel or film could be casually classified as mind control programming.
There is a deeper point to be made here. Science fiction, among its effects, stimulates the imagination of its readers or viewers.
That is a good thing for people who know they have imaginations. They can take off on their own and conceive of other possibilities. They can view reality from a wider perspective. They can examine present trends and institutions and see how provincial, corrupt, and limiting they actually are.
However, if a person doesn’t really know he has his own imagination…almost everything he takes in from the world contains a component of mind control programming.
That’s the deeper fact.
The solution isn’t trying to stem the tide of futuristic films and novels. The solution is becoming more aware; in particular, it’s becoming more aware that imagination can and does entertain unlimited scenarios.
The solution is becoming familiar and intimate with one’s own imagination.
Without that step, a person is only half of what he could be.
Shapeless fear of what is coming at us from media, from Hollywood, turns into just another hopeless version of trying to escape from the world.
Just as the fear of germs (which are everywhere and can never be contained) is non-productive, whereas building up the power of the immune system is the key…in the same way, trying to nullify the flood of media is non-productive.
The answer to images and portents of dystopia is the cultivation of one’s own imagination, which is far larger and more flexible than those manufactured portents.
And if you want to take this out to society as a whole, the solution involves a kind of education that is relatively rare: exposing the young to the scope of their own imaginations.
Of course, in places where various fundamentalisms rule, such an approach would be considered sinful. And these are the places where people are most phobic and hateful about “predictive programming.” In other words, they’re sealing their own fate.
On a scale from one to 100, where 100 represents the imagination operating at theoretical full capability, the entire power of all predictive programming would stand at about four.
To put it another way, as a person accesses and deploys his own imagination to greater degrees, the influence of predictive programming decreases drastically.
In my collection, Exit From The Matrix, this is my strategy: dozens of imagination exercises that, when practiced, blow the larger elite movie called Reality away in the wind.
