      Yes, I agree. I think that most people would also agree that the content of all of these things contains programming that helps the private organizations that own the mediums through which the media is 'distributed.'

      It's how things like racism and homophobia get perpetuated. It's why "gangsta life" gets glorified, and you see ignorant ass kids, almost ENTIRELY of hispanic and black origin shooting each other up for no reason, and then they have kids young, and raise them to keep the cycle going. Everything is fucking marketed in a specific way ON PURPOSE. Nothing about an advertisement is accidental. Every line, every graphic, every color choice and timing is done for very specific reasons. You can go to school to actually study this- this is why marketing companies make so much money.

      It's why the news is almost always something bad, some new thing to be afraid of. Something that may not even necessarily be true, but something new to fear. Some new trend to follow. But never about how the government is continuously fluoridating the water supplies (fluoride is a toxin), or how nearly literally all of our politicians are continuously bought off by major corporations, so that such corporations can get bills passed that will help them and screw everyone else. It's everything BUT that.

      The radio and the television contain content that is designed to distract. Everything is about advertising. Watch any program on cable. Crawlers at the bottom of the screen constantly. Something always in the corner, advertising yet another show. Did you know that watching television is literally a form of a hypnotic trance? (I don't mean to make that sound dramatic, as there are many forms of trance, such as driving) In a trance state, one's mind is much more open to suggestion. And if that suggestion, or series of suggestions comes very gradually and subtly, in a very VERY precise manner, (such as the manner in which advertisements and news program sets are designed and delivered to the public) the conscious mind won't notice. The subconscious will, and that has a directed effect on THOUGHT.

      I mean, it happens on the internet too, don't get me wrong, but on the internet EVERYONE has a voice, and by giving control of it up to private companies just like we did with tv and radio, we are silencing essentially everyone who isn't a millionaire. In other countries, media is literally banned if it doesn't come from the government itself. It's a more direct form of oppression. It's obvious. That's the point. Do you think something like that would fly in trigger-happy, constitution-citin', gun-totin', "free-speech" havin' Amer'kuh? Fuck no. It has to be done with surgical precision. Systematically dumbing people down. If they tried it any other way- if it was ANY less subtle, it would NOT WORK. Look at society man, people are stupider, and lazier than they ever have been.

      Idunno, it's 3 am and I'm trying to tie my point in somewhere, I'll have to post tomorrow. But think about it. You throw a lobster into a pot of boiling water, and it will notice right away. Throw it in cold water, and slowly heat it up, and it may not. A similar thing has happened with television and radio. And once internet goes, there will be no voices out there to oppose the people who are really in control. The large corporations and elite bankers who ACTUALLY run the world. If you give them control of this LAST open, neutral form of media, it will give them an official monopoly for what we see. And overtime, feeding people a range of things that you want them to think and believe, and gradually and subtly changing the content from year to year, is much like brainwashing. Well, not much like- IS.

      So don't try to tell me it doesn't happen. It may be more subtle in the United States, but it most certainly does happen. In goddamned America. In other countries, they literally shut everything that is not what they desire OFF. But the people still have their MINDS. In this country, they don't shut it off. They twist it to guide the collective mind to a place where it can be easily influenced, controlled, and left generally asleep, and unaware of everything that goes on behind the curtain of Oz. That is MUCH more effective than shutting it off altogether in any case.
