Why Mainstream Media & Almost Everything Else Mainstream Is Junk Food For The Mind
“The mainstream media has its own agenda. They do not want to print the facts. They have an agenda, they have a slant, they have a bias. It is outrageous to me.” (Curt Weldon)
When it comes to the current situation of our Western society and culture, the majority of things that are mainstream have turned sour. Most of mainstream has morphed into something that harms us physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually as opposed to being something that aids and supports us on our journey.
The Role Of Social Conditioning
Social conditioning is 3rd person knowledge that you’ve accepted as true based on hearsay. It’s impossible to avoid 3rd hand knowledge — you can’t test everything 1st hand — but you should try, as much as possible, to verify your knowledge and beliefs personally. It’s very easy to absorb false or limiting information from the media, friends, and family.
It’s incredible how much social conditioning is holding you back from living your dreams. We are like fish in water, not realizing the effect that social condition has. Every time you peal back a layer of social conditioning — you actually see it — you have an Ah-ha moment. The problem is, most people have too few of them.
