The idiot box a.k.a television was one of the greatest technical creations in my opinion. However, it is now being used to manipulate and control the weak. It's amazing to see how much television has taken over the lives of so many adults and more importantly our children. Children are being raised by television. The morality of society has taken a drastic drop; and I blame a large portion of it on television. One way to free yourself from this is to stop watching. My mindset and overall attitude began to improve when I stopped watching television.
The main question I get is, "What do you do?" What do I do? there is plenty to do.I read, research, volunteer, work, help a neighbor etc..The average American spends around six hours a day glued the idiot box. There are so many pressing matters going on in the world and I see more attention being placed on these senseless reality shows. I enjoy using Facebook, one of the worlds top social networks. If I had a nickle for every update I see about a reality show or some entertainer that could give a rats ass about the average person then I would be rich. There was a famous quote that said "If you want to hide the truth from the masses then put it in a book". Reading romance novels or other fiction does not constitute a well read well informed individual.
I'm sorry to hurt your feelings but everything you see on television isn't real. The news included. A prime example of mass manipulation was the events that took place during 9-11. If people actually took the time to do some research and not rely on the news to feed you like a baby then you could clearly see there was a conspiracy and the main objective was to justify what was being done to people in the Middle East along with slowly taking our civil liberties away. The majority of us are so caught up in Reality T.V. drama and talk show garbage that you are too blind to see what is happening before you. I challenge you to question some of the things you see and hear. How are people supposed to become upstanding citizens when your heads are filled with garbage and you are allowing your children's heads to be filled with garbage? It's just a question. What you see with your eyes can strongly affect your mind and your thoughts. It's ok to watch television if what you are watching has some substance and your not spending a part time jobs worth of hours sitting in front of it.
