There was once a great philosopher who stated that religion is the opiateof the masses. i believe that this holds true even today. Except what keepspeople in a daze is television. Television is rarely used for any good today,for example, do you really think that full house is an intellectual stimulus?hell no.
TV is designed to be brain candy for the weak-minded and ignorant. The internet is more useful and I might add, stimulating. This is a medium inwhich you can interact and communicate with others instead of sitting on yourass drooling watching itchy and scratchy. There are honestly interesting sitesavailable on this medium.
I have heard people call television the “one-eyed monster”, this simplysuggests to me that this person is obviously poor-bred or simply ignorant. Television can be used to convey pornography, religion, drug use, love, or anyother possible subject to be dealt with. The actual machine itself is not bad,it is the people who provide the programming for it that are the cause of theproblem. Do people really think I give a rat’s ass if Uncle Joey makes it ornot?I do not want to come across as saying that televison should be abolsihedaltogether, not at all. I personally love seinfeld and the occasional Beavisand Butthead, but everything in moderation and nothing to excess, so to put itsimply, do not overdo it, or you will end up a moron who needs Tom Brokaw totell them what is right and wrong.Category: Music and Movies
