Coronation St, symbolism

[kiwimaj]

Was flicking thru the channels last night and to my horror noticed on Corrie, one of the female characters wearing a top that had five pointed stars and skull & crossbones all over it...and also loads of other 5 pointed stars about in the episode masquarading as xmas deco's..

I know, not exactly important in the whole scheme...but just goes to show how the sheeples are constantly being subliminal'd.

Also, anyone else notice in the first Matrix movie...in a few scenes I noticed what seemed to me to be shards of broken glass, surrounded in a pinky colour, triangular (long think pyramids), I can only make out as a subliminal message. I kept rewinding at least a dozen times and it was there every time, but for a very split second...

hmmmm........:rolleyes:

Hey, yeah, I noticed that too. Awful. And - this may be just my imagination - but when Maria chalked Murderer on the factory wall, it was written Mu derer, with a space between the Mu and the rest of the misspelled word, and Mu was the mother 'goddess' or something?

Subliminals everywhere. That five pointed star is becoming ubiquitous. And butterflies 'tatooed' on film actresses bodies in parts - in White Chicks, and in the sequel to that Steve Martin 'Better By the Dozen' thing, etc etc.

And have you seen the latest Celebrity Big Brother? Symbols everywhere ... (!)

if you believe there is a conscious effort by the makers of coronation street to promote the luciferian agenda through the use of subliminals you (a). need to to get out more and (b) obviously haven't met any of the twerps responsible for making the programme.

you can find anything you want if you look hard enough. it was a the logo of a clothing range that the actress was wearing and they were christmas decorations.

Why wouldn't they use an extremely popular programme that is watched by the masses, as a tool?? Seems like a good idea to me ! Why only american movies and such?? I don't believe for a second that the powers that be are not using every form of programme on tv and the movies they can to promote their agenda, in as many countries as they can.

Right, now on to Eastenders...or was it Neighbours, oh hold on, just noticed something on Emmerdale...

Sure they would! Did you SEE the Christmas Eve episode? Pretty satanic use of evil - v graphic scene of a man strangling another man, apparantly to death. Really good acting of satanic rage. Christmas Eve! 8.00pm! 'Coronation Street' ain't about Elsie Tanner any more ... the sexual imagery's really hyped up as well..
Maybe it's happened so gradually we've got used to it, but first there was Tracey battering Charlie to death - they SHOWED it. If either of those scenes had been in a film, I wouldn't have taken any kids to see it, and they'd have got at least a PG rating. But because it's C.S., we tend to forget just how violent it is. It's not just C.S. - Emmerdale's also had a lot of violent deaths. Thinking about it, I'm really not happy at the idea of small kids (or even teenagers) watching that. Because it's a soap opera, meant in some way to reflect everyday life (I know, I know ...!) you're less prepared to write it off as just a horror show, exempt from your own reality, and thus have less conscious barriers up against it.

It's just another example of really young children being exposed to real violence as a way of life. Again - it's happened so slowly, in soaps we trust to be 'nice', that we haven't really noticed it; but it certainly won't be helping us build a less violent society.

Given that they show some really graphic murders openly, and are probably thus helping contribute to a more violent society in ways we don't fully realise, why wouldn't they use subliminals as well? To use the old argument - if people weren't influenced by what they see on TV, why do advertisers pay such huge amounts to - well, influence people?

In March they had a character kill himself beneath a "666" banner.

This week they're on the verge of an armed siege which involves a man beating his wife up, torturing her psychologically and then trying to set her on fire and telling her to watch the flames.
