 You want some good reasons to stop watching the news? Either njroute22.com here with a little bit of an editorial slash social observation video today on our vlog. It's about the news. The news as Steve Carell famously made everybody laugh. Last time we watched the news regularly it was probably well over a decade ago. And since then we've pretty much tuned out. We don't watch the news at seven o'clock or what are cable news or any kind of primetime news channel. And while we don't not keep a pulse on what's going on in the world because we think that's important to know sort of what's going on and not every little nitty gritty detail. We pretty much focus on our lives and the things we do for ourselves and our family. But why should you stop watching the news is what I'm trying to get at here. For one I think for you to truly understand what we're talking about here you gotta take like a significant amount of time off from the news to really understand. I could tell you all day long that it's no good and it's unhealthy and it's sickening but until you actually just stop watching it for years preferably and then come back and see what's going on and what you've missed you'll realize that you made the right choice. Pick a couple channels and then watch them and you're like holy crap I'm glad I'm not watching this anymore. But do you know what happens when you unplug from this nonsense? You become really like clear minded on why the whole entire structure is just nonsense. First of all when you see these talking heads on these TV shows they have this aura of importance. Like they're important people oh here I am. Like when I talk to you guys on my videos I'm just speaking like a human being. They never really speak to you like a human being. They look like forced actors you know I don't know. And the whole entire production quality of these news programs feels extremely like produced like a Hollywood production. They got soundtracks, they got graphics, they got all sorts of dramatic breaking news. It's like a game to mess with your brain. And of course the subject matter is always bad news, tragedy and scandals and drama and despair. It's a psychological like chosen subject matter and how they I guess other people like watching the suffering of others. I don't know it's why like people love game shows where there's losers or you get fired from the show. Ha ha you know it's like it's nonsense. And of course all these news programs always mention some sort of authority like the government and police and all these important people celebrities. You know there's some sort of authority involved. But you know without getting really into the historical details and the psychological details about the whole news thing but it's really basically designed to screw you. And the same can be said for a lot of like YouTube channels for instance they're popular and first of all you wonder why and then they're promoting some sort of nonsense usually. But all these programs they are designed to shape who you are and how your mind works. Not to think clearly and question things. They don't really and if they do let you make a decision it's two limited choices you know. And then they also do that from a very like obviously all fear like famine war like viruses all this other stuff. And then they do other things in a very subtle way that you can't quite put your finger on over time. And it happens sometimes over generations whether it's gender things or whatever. I mean there's many varying forms of changing public perception. And while we're at it it's not like oh I'm gonna go into the conspiracy theory camp and like think they're all out to get us because that's a whole nother like kind of subject that maybe one day we'll get into but most of those conspiracy things are also controlled by other people and designed to you know nudge you into a different corner like the other corner but they're both controlled by people who benefit from your belief. And then you know hey you gotta buy these survival kits they last 20 years. And my best advice is to avoid it all and just focus on your family first. Always family first. And if you don't have that privilege you may want to just find some trustworthy friends and slowly build up a network of trustworthy people. But the whole news racket print and online and on TV is something that most people would be much better off if they did without. So click the like, hit subscribe and I'll see you next video.
