What was said is that we have unconscious thoughts that can't be controlled. Meaning that once the thought is thought unconsciously then it can't be controlled once we become aware of it. Did you mean something else?

                                             OK let me help you out with an example - JG A - 7/21 13:29:04
                                                  That is an incorrect conclusion. Your conscious mind - Emmanuel Goldstein MU - 7/21 13:37:30
                                                       Your conscious mind does not make any choice - cnk ATL - 7/21 13:40:02
                                                            Yes.. it is an illusion. But JG seems to have a problem - Emmanuel Goldstein MU - 7/21 13:44:19
                                                                 Its not me having the problem here - JG A - 7/21 13:47:07
                                                                      You cannot prevent the unconscious thought. You have - Emmanuel Goldstein MU - 7/21 13:47:52
                                                                           You keep saying something I have already agreed to - JG A - 7/21 13:54:53
                                                                                You are missing the most important part.(nm) - Emmanuel Goldstein MU - 7/21 13:57:35
                                                                                     No - JG A - 7/21 14:01:18
                                                            That is total nonsense - JG A - 7/21 13:43:58
                                                                 You do think about choices that are made - cnk ATL - 7/21 13:48:41
                                                                      Again that makes no sense - JG A - 7/21 13:53:57

                                                                                Nonsense - JG A - 7/21 14:02:58
                                                                           The choices you are aware of are limited by unconscious - Emmanuel Goldstein MU - 7/21 13:56:28
                                                                                Sometimes choices have many more options - JG A - 7/21 13:58:03
                                                                                     Again, you keep reaching conclusions never stated. - Emmanuel Goldstein MU - 7/21 13:59:32
                                                                                          LOL what? - JG A - 7/21 14:02:30

                                                                      So if you learn something, you are still not in control - JG A - 7/21 13:56:50

                                                       THAT can then be CONTROLLED by conscious thought - JG A - 7/21 13:39:42
                                                            No. You cannot control the unconscious thought. Your - Emmanuel Goldstein MU - 7/21 13:42:24
