Offshoring's Use of Deception to Beguile the Public
by Disgruntled6455 and Betsy Ross

An opening editorial in one of America’s most prominent business periodicals claimed that the magazine would explain how American citizens would benefit and even "cash in" on the upcoming outsourcing “wave” in 2003. Close scrutiny of the entire magazine did not reveal a single word of writing relating to Americans who could benefit. The whole magazine was nothing more than a carefully targeted "propaganda" piece, and the publisher counted on the fact that 95% of readers would not take the time to uncover the truth. Let’s explore how disinformation is effectively used to shove globalism down the throats of the business press, the public, and even executives who buy offshoring deals.

Twenty-Five Ways to Suppress Truth:
The Rules of Disinformation
(Includes The 8 Traits of A Disinformationalist)

by H. Michael Sweeney

“Where the crime involves a conspiracy, or a conspiracy to cover up the crime, there will invariably be a disinformation campaign launched against those seeking to uncover and expose the truth and/or the conspiracy. There are specific tactics which disinformation artists tend to apply, as revealed here. Also included with this material are seven common traits of the disinformation artist which may also prove useful in identifying players and motives. The more a particular party fits the traits and is guilty of following the rules, the more likely they are a professional disinformation artist with a vested motive. People can be bought, threatened, or blackmailed into providing disinformation, so even "good guys" can be suspect in many cases.”

“Truth cannot live on a diet of secrets, withering within entangled lies. Freedom cannot live on a diet of lies, surrendering to the veil of oppression. The human spirit cannot live on a diet of oppression, becoming subservient in the end to the will of evil. God, as truth incarnate, will not long let stand a world devoted to such evil. Therefore, let us have the truth and freedom our spirits require... or let us die seeking these things, for without them, we shall surely and justly perish in an evil world.”


Coercive Persuasion and Attitude Change
“Coercive persuasion and thought reform are alternate names for programs of social influence capable of producing substantial behavior and attitude change through the use of coercive tactics, persuasion, and/or interpersonal and group-based influence manipulations. Such programs have also been labeled "brainwashing", a term more often used in the media than in scientific literature.”
Globalists will use fallacies to support offshoring’s grandiose claims. Such fallacies can be exposed by the applications of Stephen's Guide to the Logical Fallacies

“The point of an argument is to give reasons in support of some conclusion. An argument commits a fallacy when the reasons offered do not, in fact, support the conclusion. ”


The Logical Fallacies Index exposes claims frequently used by the offshoring sales forces (ie. “offshoring creates more jobs than it destroys”)
"“Fallacies of Distraction
Appeals to Motives in Place of Support
Changing the Subject
to affect the truth of the conclusion
Inductive Fallacies
Fallacies Involving Statistical Syllogisms
Causal Fallacies
Missing the Point
Fallacies of Ambiguity
Category Errors
Non Sequitur
Syllogistic Errors
Fallacies of Explanation
Fallacies of Definition”
"


Here's a British example:

“This week has seen the first hard evidence around the impact of offshoring on UK jobs and the news, perhaps surprisingly for some, isn't bad. Firstly the official UK employment statistics from the Office for National Statistics show that IT and call centre positions have grown at three times the rate of the national average since 2001 and that redundancy levels have been consistently falling.

Secondly there is the news that Indian business process outsourcing company HCL is to open two new call centres in Northern Ireland, creating 600 new jobs in Armagh and Belfast.

Of course this doesn't paint the full picture and, inevitably, there will be some short-term pain and job losses when certain companies decide to move work offshore.”


Here we have another invitation to wishful thinking, telling people to look the other way when there are economic tragedies for citizens, and just keep hoping that the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true.

The British Experience - Detroit Style
From hard-core evidence gained in Detroit near the auto industry, this is what will happen:

1. The "600 jobs" will not be advertised to the general public but will go to foreign H1-B's in the area who will have a first crack at them.

2. Americans who manage to find the openings will often find that Indian hiring managers are even enthusiastic to hear from them because unemployed American IT workers have a lot of knowledge to "transfer" still, but after the initial phase of excitement, the American interviewees will be "frozen out".

3. Unemployed H1-B's living in the area who are in the country against immigration laws will hear of the job openings and will offer to hire into them at $6 - $8 an hour (American situation).

4. Some Americans will be hired, but will find themselves constantly training new H1-B's until they are exhausted of their knowledge and gotten rid of.

5. A lot of University Students who are Indian will be allowed to work these jobs on a part-time basis until full time jobs show up.

We are getting into the "practical hypnosis" aspect of salesmanship that was perfected during the dot.com era and went on to shape the Indian Business Process Offshoring (BPO). I saw many examples of this during the expansion of the dot.com bubble. The most effective use of "practical hypnosis" is the "successful image guru". Such a BPO salesman wears impeccably tailored suits, has the most expensive laptop in existence, is constantly on the cell-phone and is always in a hurry because of travel plans. This type of con is used on the average "machine shop" owner or "car parts" maker whose own personal life is a lot drabber than the breezy, sophisticated Indian who just visited his office. The potential target then feels that "making a connection" with the BPO salesman (or saleswoman) will make his own life more exciting. What the victim doesn't realize is that the "glamorous" lifestyle of the BPO salesman has been paid for by money that was skimmed out of the budget that was supposed to go for services rendered! The money spent on this lifestyle is then paid for by a corresponding lowering of quality for the product obtained, or worse, represents a kind of "ponzie scheme" in which management dips into the money to pay for "lifestyle" expenses long before equipment and budget costs have been met.

We should keep looking for examples of Indian "mind control" groups that are frequented by Indian BPO salesmen both in India and in the US. In the US, cult-like groups including Amway Motivational Groups, actively teach 'higher level' members how to deceive the public with false claims of sales or "success stories" that aren't true. There must be someone who has defected from one of these groups and can tell the same. If Indians have spent a lot of money on "management gurus" there should be some stories on the Internet about which American gurus have set up shop on Indian or vice-versa. A warning: even investigating "Mind control" as a third person dispassionate observer can be very upsetting.
