Television. One of the greatest instruments ever created for mass media. People are drawn to it like a moth to the
flame. When we are bored we watch television, when we eat we watch television, when we are stressed and want to
relax, we watch television... So what happens? Our brains kind of shut off and slip into auto pilot. We ingest
everything that the television spits out. Subconsciously we are being fed habits of consumerism and useless
information about celebrities. We are watching reality shows as our own reality passes us by. The major question to ask here is WHY? Why is it that we spend 5 minutes on the presidential elections and
20 minutes on what happened to Britney Spears this week? Why is it that we have 20 minutes of programming and
10 minutes of commercials that urge us to buy things we dont need? Stop and ponder why they call it programming...
Thats exactly what's happening. We are being programmed and conditioned to become consumers and nothing more. Again ask WHY? Maybe it's because all they are really doing is shoving a big fat pacifier in our mouths, and are
saying, "Be quiet, overwork yourselves, and do not pay attention to the man behind the curtain.
We dont want any of you to have an original thought, or question what is really going on with this country, and how our
lack of involvement affects it." This country thrives off of automation. Original thought creates ideas, and ideas
can become dangerous to the institution. People are much easier to control when they are mentally sedated and
preoccupied with random useless crap. So take that pacifier out of your mouth and wake up!

We are cattle.
We all know that each of our end is near; the question is do we accept the end of our living existence, or do we accept our existence as dead men...

Quote (Menace) ...and
20 minutes on what happened to Britney Spears this week? Why is it that we have 20 minutes of programming and
10 minutes of commercials that urge us to buy things we dont need? ...........britney spears?? i dont know about you guys but i watch whatever pleases me...we're all human beings, without entertainment well go insane but as for those commercials, they try to deceive us into buying sh*t we dont need, as well as waste our time
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." - Mark Twain

That's why the internet is so great. As opposed to TV, the truth is at our fingertips.
We all know that each of our end is near; the question is do we accept the end of our living existence, or do we accept our existence as dead men...
