Is it just me or does anyone else find this concerning?
Interesting . . . Words are important . . . how they are used in and out of context . . . traditional definitions as well as evolving definitions . . . nothing is static, not even our language.https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=1424571421115383&id=1410029482561123&stream_ref=10

ssshhh!It's amusing, because it puts their dishonesty right out in the open.
Balance . . . what are your specific concerns?
it's just normal marketing. what the op is talking about.PR.Fear of the unknown probably kicking in as I don't fully understand the implications of NLP but The Programming part mostly concerns me, I think. From the wiki, it does seem to be controversial.

people like to use fancy sounding terms for things now a days.
nlp is the fancy termHey I know, everyone refer to it as geoengineering. Plain and simple, no fancy terms.
I also think the effort to use non-standard terminology isn't necessarily going to help their cause. It just will tend to marginalize them and make them look more 'out there' than they already are.
yup. only draw back is they need the word Chemtrail to pull it off!I know it's speculation, but I think it's more to do with the popularity/acceptance of the term 'Climate Change Deniers' which has naturally gathered traction.
Using NLP, in the words of look-upand by association, is hoping to increase support without doing the work - polarisation? It will also likely create an immediately hostile mind-set against any opposition, regardless how that opposition is presented.
I wouldn't counter it. I would promote it. they are desperately trying to move away from the chemtrail tag. let's stick them with it.The verb "deny", defined as it is to "state that one refuses to admit the truth or existence of", brings with it the conscious intent to hide something known by the actor to be true.
This move (described in the OP) is a skillful use of language, and I'm not sure how to counter it.
Look up appears to have no understanding of NLP. While the use of language is important so it is important to have something internally to associate it with. If used in a clinical setting it is used as an aspect of hypnotherapy.Fear of the unknown probably kicking in as I don't fully understand the implications of NLP but The Programming part mostly concerns me, I think.

There is very little, if not no, empirical evidence on it working https://www.kcl.ac.uk/nursing/newsevents/news/2012/Little-evidence-for-NLP-in-Healthcare.aspx but its proponents defend it to the hilt. When training as a counsellor I stayed well clear and most academic institutions don't teach it anyway.
I think it's more about them wanting to manifest their opinion in simple words more than actual mental manipulation.
It's like when 911 debunkers call followers of the truth movement "truthers", the truthers call the debunkers "falsers" in return.
Some use the derogatory term "chem-tards" to emphasize the perceived stupidity involved in "chemtrail" belief.
So I think it's less about actual NLP and more about putting emotions and attitudes into simple words to easier present your disposition in the community. No matter what subject we tend to like creating portmanteau words, macro expressions and idioms all the time because it is convenient and fun. I would not worry too much about this![]()
It seems to me plausible it has an effect as there is a conscious intent to use it in a certain way, as an act of will it would work to change behaviour. Isn't it just a form of cognitive behavioural therapy?There is very little, if not no, empirical evidence on it working
In therapeutic terms it is similar to CBT in that it is a solution based therapy, however I would say NLP is more like Gestalt. CBT looks at a behaviour but without the need to address the causative factors unlike NLP. Unfortunately a therapy like NLP is very subjective and like many others hard to gather empirical evidence.It seems to me plausible it has an effect as there is a conscious intent to use it in a certain way, as an act of will it would work to change behaviour.

I noticed he didnt name the clouds. talk about giving up a fun opportunity!I guess if you want to learn to manipulate other people's thoughts, you need to start slow and easy but, really?
