You Can't Make Me!

Self Victimization through Personal Speech Patterns

The Sovereignty Series

We’ve all heard of word association tests administered by the psychiatric profession which are used to determine our unconscious psychological makeup. The same goes for various other tests, such as the Rorschach test, that are (supposedly) designed to detect underlying thought disorder and overall personality characteristics.

I have often spoken about the hijacking of language to control and manipulate people, both as individuals and as the collective herd.

A place where we could showcase those who had good material, ideas or even creative fiction but no place to post or publish.

As a contributing editor on Zero Hedge, several times I took the liberty to post work by others that I felt was creative or simply warranted merit and recognition. I have always felt there is a huge wealth of  unrecognized talent out there waiting to be discovered and displayed for all to see.

It was a story that touched both Mrs. Cog and I and we felt it would be perfect as the first submission to "Your Turn", that corner of the universe where new talent is offered for your reading or viewing pleasure.

If you have something to say to the world click "Your Turn" on the menu/navigation bar at the top right, read the rules and regulations and then use the contact form to find out how to submit your work for publication. Now sit back, click here, and enjoy "Didje Magic" by "Element".
