My topic, brainwashing and conditioning requires a lot of experience and patience for the process to actually work. As i have been look through my sources, i have found quite a lot about the art of brainwashing and how some people/groups do it. According to my one source __the author__ emphasizes the different ways someone might try brainstorming others. For example, one of the biggest causes of manipulation and brainwashing is guilt tripping the person into believing something and playing with their emotions. They break the person to such an extent that the person internally is dead, yet somehow they are still breathing. similar to this source, orwell's book, 1984 talks how big brother breaks down its enemies to such an extent that they die internally and are at the mercy of the puppet master. __other authors also agree__ that the most important factor of brainwashing is tearing down person's emotions.

along with the ways of brainwashing people, i've learned about the negative impacts of being brainwashed and what might occur. __it is often said__ that hypnosis and brainwashing may be dangerous, but if it is done right, (for example a doctor trying to figure out the problem) the side effects are not very harmful. however, if a person is brainwashed through ulterior motives, then there are quite a lot of harmful side effects. __Maurice Kouguell, explicitly states__ in her writing the potential dangers.
