This statement was part of a social media post by a clinical doctor focused on longevity in the clinic, and replacing the core Rockefeller medicine model with a decentralized medicine model in healthcare.
It's a good point I think gets easily missed. And an example of a bigger issue. I've been thinking lately about the obvious situation where the mainstream space pushes their audience to one extreme on any topic with contention or unknowns, while much of so called alternative media space pushes their target audiences to other extremes.
An "awakened" public should not mean simply adopting a new dogma after rejecting the old dogma, just because it resonates with mounting suspicions and feelings of betrayal by any and every institution. It puts one in a space of being critical and skeptical of the MSM, but at the same time outsourcing one's critical thinking skills to non-MSM, "alernative media" sources.
Here's the doc's text in full:
The medium is the message.
The truth probably is discoverable, but the facts will be so dishonestly set forth in almost any media outlet that the public can be forgiven either for swallowing lies or failing to form an opinion. The reason for this is how the news is being delivered today. The products of modern science technology are not in themselves good or bad; it is the way they are used that determines their value.
The difference between you and the media today is that the public is too ignorant to explain why they're correct on topics, while the media is so smart they can collectively join forces online and make wrong sound good to most of the public. The medium was designed to dull the senses and cognition of the viewing audience. It has worked. The public is now a product of the media and not their customer. Advertisers are their chief customers. Public viewers are now quite cheap because of how the news is delivered in the technocracy. When viewers realized they have been made a cheap commodity, they can easily force the cost of their services higher to cause the financial collapse of the media.
Why should you care? Once we have surrendered our senses and nervous systems to the private manipulation of those in media who would try to benefit from taking a lease on our eyes and ears and nerves, we don't really have any rights left.
The Truth right here
