@everyone Daily Question:
Is the mainstream media attempting to keep people dumb? This applies not only to news media, but also TV, film, video games from βAAAβ publishers of such media. If so, who is trying to educate people on the truth?
Yes, it's up to independent media/journos to educate, as well as the individual to critically think for themselves and question near everything that is spoke by modern media.
Even call out independent media if any facts are incorrect to let them know that just because they aren't mainstream, they still have a standard to maintain
the mainstream media is either just giving a dumb population what it wants or it too is made up of idiots because they're from the same dumb population.
Now as for the question I donβt think the entertainment industry does it intentionally but instead they seek to have the largest amount of people be their audience so they boil everything down to the lowest common denominator they donβt intentionally go out to make people dumb itβs just they make dumb content to appeal to more people
It's about generational conditioning, eventually a vast majority of humans will have little net economic benefit to our society as AI and Robotics become better. They need to be conditioned to become more and more compliant so there is no revolt. Throughout history many rebellions have begun because slave labor displaced too many skilled and unskilled free workers. Hell in part unemployment helped take down the Roman Republic by opening the door for a populist like Caesar to grab power.
