I am a Fool.
It’s the only option to be one
Enough is enough. Nonsensical ads. Clickbait headlines. Fear mongering.
Enough. How long it will take them to stop treating us like little imbeciles?
The systems for a long time kept crashing our common sense, they sold the package as a real thing, they are taking away our ability to think.
Thinking logically without too much emotion, coming to the right conclusion- does anyone do that?
We are spoon-fed over and over. Prior to the internet, we had a one-way system, TV, Radio, newspaper, books. The Internet came and flooded us with information, the exchange of ideas, and set the world free(or we thought it did).
Today, the internet is being transformed into two way-system– a “you are with us or against us” system. If I don’t agree with something, whatever it is, I am in danger of being cancelled, losing friends, or be destroyed mentally. What the Fuck?
We can have opinions. Most of the opinions are stupid, ill-thought, selfish opinions but it’s just that–an opinion. An opinion is not a peer-reviewed scientific work. It’s not an axiom. If someone says something borderline racist or homophobic you know that they are being stupid. If someone thinks that one race is “better” than another race let them live in their stupidity, there’s no point in changing their opinion.
Let’s be honest- everyone had, has, and will have stupid, poorly thought through thoughts and ideas. Some of us will believe that the ideas are “the truth.” They can’t be further from the truth.
Today’s media is not helping to get rid of stupidity. Spoon-fed, unprovoking ideas on the screens make minds dull and lazy. It turns the minds into a mashed potato dinner.
I am the fool who doesn’t want to accept this trash.
