"If You Want to Survive this E******n with Your Mental Health Intact,
Turn Off the "News" and Social Media Now"
by Charles Hugh Smith
"Since e******ns are extremely profitable for traditional media / social media corporations, your sanity will gleefully be sacrificed in the upcoming e******n - if you are gullible enough to watch the "news" and tune into social media.E******ns are extremely profitable because candidates spend scads of cash on media adverts. The greater the discord and derangement, the higher the media profits. The more outraged you let yourself become, the more time you spend online, generating insane profits for the corporations that own wh**ever platforms you're addicted to.
Seeking an echo chamber of people who agree with you? We got you covered. Attracted like a junkie to emotionally corrosive "news"? That's our specialty! Want an outlet for your spleen? That's what we offer, because "we connect people" (haha).
In other words, if you have a self-destructive attraction to anger, helplessness, frustration, bitter unhappiness and derangement--then by all means, watch the "news" and soak up social media. But while you're destroying your mental health for zero positive gains, please recall that six corporations plus Amazon zillionaire Jeff Bezos own the vast majority of the mainstream media - a truly frightening concentration of power in the hands of a few whose sole purpose is to maximize profit.
This concentration of media control creates the illusion of choice - the same elite-propaganda spin is everywhere you look; our "choice" of "approved" (i.e. corporate) media is roughly the same as that offered the Soviet citizenry in the old USSR.
Given the Corporate Media spews the same tired, Soviet-style narrative with increasing desperation, it's no wonder than public trust in the mainstream media is plummeting to all-time lows. The "news" isn't just "f**e": it's designed to push narratives that benefit self-serving elites at the expense of non-elites.
Given the extreme profitability of d******eness, it's also no wonder that political polarization is reaching extremes:
Here's a reality that you'll never see in the corporate media, because it's off message:
As entrenched interests compete to protect their profitable skims, s**ms, monopolies and fiefdoms, the bottom 95% are slipping into darkness. "The lifestyle you ordered" is not just currently out of stock - it's no longer being produced.
Propaganda doesn't have to change your mind to be effective - all it has to do is disable your critical thinking by blinding you with rage, misdirecting your attention, generating an "Other" that acts as a target for projected frustration, creating either-or thinking, splinter the working/middle classes into d******e "tribes" supported by echo-chamber social media and addict you to constant drips of carefully tailored emotional derangement.
Welcome to the corporate/social media's gulag of the mind: We'll tell you what's "true" and what is correct to think and believe. Any deviation from the party line is a threat and must be discredited, marginalized or suppressed.
The greater your mental anguish and derangement, the more profit you generate for the corporate/social media, because the more time you spend "engaging" media and social media, the more money they make. Nobody in the corporate/social media cares about your mental health - that's not what they're paid to care about. They're paid to sacrifice your mental health to increase their corporate profits. That's the e******n in a (heretical) nutshell.
If you want to preserve your sanity and avoid unhappy derangement, turn off all corporate and social media from now to Thanksgiving, and other than watching sports or nature programs, it's best to leave the corporate/social media off until Christmas - Christmas 2020."

I reckon that I will keep watching some of the msm, to find out who's paying for the crap they spread, so I know who my enemies are.
As for the 'social media', that's just an addictive form of 'social disease', best avoided by all.

What you are witnessing today was predicted long ago by George Orwell. The MSM today is what Orwell called "The Ministry of T***h" in his book 1984. Especially those so called "T***h Sites" such as Factcheck, Snopes and Politifact! All three of those sites are controlled and financed by the LEFT. The t***h is what the left says it is!! The N**i's and the C*******t burned all books that ran opposite to their rule! Today, the left is doing everything they can to control everything that you read, see on Tv and taught in our educational system. And people wonder why the left wants to disarm the right!!!!! Gun control is their way to slowly disarm their political enemies. They cannot rule over this country and its citizens as long as the Bill of Rights is in place! That is why the establishment is constantly setting false f**gs in place to demonize anyone who owns firearms! Of course they still keep theirs!
E******ns are no longer the effective way to rid ourselves of the subhuman filth that is occupying what use to be known as the Democrat party. Unfortunately, I believe there are only two choices for the Right and Left to survive this huge divide. First choice is a two country solution! Second Choice, a Civil War between the two parties to force the criminals out of our government. It will be normal Americans versus the New World Order and their a******l dumb ass followers!
The left today is far more dangerous than they were in the 30's and 40's. They murdered tens of millions in the 20th century (mainly Christians), today, they would have NO PROPLEM slaughtering every political opponent that holds their power in check.
Today, the ideology to control humanity and its wealth is no different than the N**i's or C*******t Russia/China. Just different faces and names but I can assure you, the threat by the left today is the same!
