Be careful who you tell this to. Or be prepared to vehemently defend yourself from charges of incompetence at the next important political decision you face.

Propaganda based on the intellect can and does happen more routinely than is healthy in any society.

Sorry if this is a downer. I have your best interests in mind.

Called hypnagogic auditory hallucinations - these are common period (Feynmann discusses how to acquire them in his autobiography) but especially common if you have temporal lobe epilepsy. Note that most cases of epilepsy are never diagnosed because most seizures are nocturnal, and focal, not necessarily the tonic/clonic seizures movies have made us familiar with.
