Re: Television Addiction

TV addiction???? Sometimes I have to restrain myself from making certain comments…….sit… take some time… or just walk away for a few days, but TV is a pet peeve of mine…..so here goes……

TV is addictive……enticing…..seductive….but it is so, for many people, from many walks of life, it is not ADD specific by any means. There are millions of dollars spent by “Media Moguls” all directed at how to entice and manipulate people into watching TV. If you fall into that category here is a little food for thought…………..

Fact…. we all have a finite number of heartbeats…..a finite number of days….and opportunity to experience the world and this thing we call our life. I believe, the rich part of all of our experience/life is in the “DOING” the active participation that stimulates our senses, and makes for a full and rich life. So it really amazes me that people will sit and stare at an electronic device that displays sounds and images to supposedly emulate some fictional portrayal of a real life experience. Even more deadly is that 20 minutes of every hour spent staring at this electronic device whose sole purpose is outright mind manipulation….the very reason that the little stories are told!!!!! Advertising…..subliminal seduction…..lies, and manipulation, crafted by top Psychologists, Marketers based on batteries of tests run on a multitude of demographics (test groups)…all with the intent on separating the viewer from their wealth and having them line up with the Moguls monetary/political needs!!!! That brings us to the second, ancillary purpose which is for propaganda and the deceptive management of the populous.

ALL…….news broadcasts are just that……nothing more….the media are owned (all media) by the largest/wealthiest (3 or 4) families all over the world and are design to advance their power and for quest for power and the accumulation of wealth. Every TV show news broadcast is scrutinized for content and message and it better damn well match up to their mission or else!!!!! For instance… just check out Dan Rather……….and why he got fired for breaking the story of GW Bush deserting the Army for one year…….a serious crime for which he has never been charged or tried…instead he was made President!!!! True…..not a fable!!!!!

So why do people do it….waste a life staring at the box….simple….. the more you stare at the box, the more lethargic you become….the more effective the seduction plan is and the seductive messages effect….. and the more is craved. It is not for me to tell anybody how to live or what is right…..it is not my place….however….having studied Psych at University and been a player in market development and populous manipulation……. I know first hand, I am very aware. Facts are…TV is insidious, manipulative and designed to addict…..there is a reason why millions and millions of dollars are spent just to tell you this soap is for washing dishes…and this one is for washing hands etc……think about it!!!!! I don’t think so…….

So watch TV…..go ahead….. sit there hour after hour, day after day, month after month, year after year, life after……oh wait we only have one life don’t we……..shit there’s that finite number heartbeats thing again. Or just shut it off….walk away…take control of your life !!!!!!

or not………
