How to treat television fraud
A conversation with the consumer of the television broadcast takes a lot of health. You are his argument, he is a quote from Solovyov. You are a fact to him, he is a homework for you. While you list all the sound arguments, you will get tired, like from unsuccessful sex and shut up, feeling that your intellect is not such a powerful weapon in a dispute with television -dependent.
Returning from Arkhangelsk, in the compartment she rode with a very pretty lady slightly over 50, with a pleasant voice and a manner of communication. Verbal prelude: who are you, where, where are you going, who you were working neutral and quite diplomatic. Until the word "Ukraine" was sounded. It seems I talked about his dad Fedya that he lives there and works in a bakery. She tensed, and then gave out almost with hatred: "But what they are doing there, these fascists. How they kill women and children, how they take away at home and throw unarmed into the street."
- Who are they?
- Nazis.
- There are no fascists.
- How not, did you see the stories on TV?
- I have no TV.
I’m trying to tell you carefully about the nightingale litter, about nuclear ashes, about staging on a talk show. He does not believe, denies everything, retells what he saw in the news, speaking with intact pieces.
- These dill are capable of anything. Have you heard about the crucified boy?
- Of course I heard. But not what you heard. Do not trust the TV too much. There is no news about real events in the country. Only about successes and about how the enemies closed the ring around us.
I tell her about several exposed fakes. Eyes are overwhelmed with anger. All that she believed is questioned by a real person. And she begins to be angry with me.
“Well, you understand that these are all Americans.” They sponsor the entire Internet, all these sales sites. They give weapons to the Nazis. They decompose our intellect, it is beneficial for them to be as stupid as they are as stupid. Therefore, they control our adolescents through gadgets. Children do not read anymore, only in phones they sit. This is beneficial to the Americans.
Until you and your loved ones concern you, all around the enemies, the eater of the cookies of the State Department, and the sense of the homeland, real, close, small, for which the heart is aching, immediately puts the brain and heart in place
I'm smiling. How many times have I heard this motive about stupid Americans. I talk about my trip to America, about the fact that the Americans are not stupid than us, that they are very compassional, they love to participate in all charitable organizations, help each other, and no matter how much they are fixated in Russia, as we think. And our children are dumb not because the Americans act through their microchips, but because the optimization of education and culture destroys us more than enemies. The neighbor does not believe, but the first confusion appears on her face. It turns away, looks out the window, is silent for about 15 minutes. I read the book. Timidly cherished. He asks quietly:
- You probably know about ShiES ...
Of course I know. We give lectures in our art space, meetings in support of ShiES defenders . Yes, I know. I read all the news from there. The neighbor is transforming, becomes again an enthusiastic interlocutor. But now her arguments are similar to mine. She lives in St. Petersburg. But she was born and raised in the Arkhangelsk region. Shees’s theme is not familiar to her from the TV, but from those whom she knows and to whom she trusts. Now I go on the offensive.
- Have you ever seen the news about Shies in TV?
- No, never.
“But you know about him.” How do you get news about the garbage training ground?
- Through friends and through groups in contact.
- In this case, do you trust sites?
- Yes, my friends and acquaintances write this. Real people.
“Why do you think they don’t illuminate Shies on TV?” This is a huge problem. Garbage and its processing. As if the theme does not exist at all.
- Because Moscow money?
- Most likely, because it is a protest against the authorities. And according to television, we have no protests, since everyone is satisfied with the existing power. Real problems are rarely illuminated through the central channels. Only success. But you see that real problems exist, but they do not talk about them.
- And what to do? How to find out truthful news? If you say that the TV is lying.
After half an hour, I already write to her in a notebook a list of ten sites and media, which you can believe and about which she either never heard, or heard that these are "enemies of the state." I recorded everything, promised to view. I was no longer angry with me. They broke up almost friends.
That's why I thought again. Until you and your loved ones concern you, all around the enemies, the eater of the cookies of the State Department, and the sense of the homeland, real, close, small, for which the heart is aching, immediately puts the brain and heart in place. And television zoom is treated in half an hour a real conversation about a real problem, about which the nightingale of dense forests of propaganda will never sing.
