*It has also been conclusively proven that tuning in to mass media makes you prone to violence, both physical and verbal. There have been well over 4000 studies done related to this theme, and they conclusively show that watching television contributes to aggressive behavior, causes nightmares, and intensifies paranoia. Just as damaging (if not even more so), watching violent TV programs has also been linked with having less compassion & empathy toward others in our everyday lives. 38
*And finally, it has also been clearly shown that engaging your mass media devices regularly makes you stupid … Indeed, research has now conclusively shown that when you are watching TV or staring into your laptop or i-Phone, your higher brain regions shut down, and your brain activity shifts to its “lower”, more primitive regions – regions permanently cemented in a response mode of insecurity, worry, fear & “fight or flight”. Over time, watching electronic media causes your higher brain regions to atrophy due to lack of usage. Indeed, studies have shown that TV viewing among children leads to lower attention spans and poor brain development, and that mass media viewing among adults leads to lessened abilities to reason and focus on the tasks at hand (i.e. a lessened ability to appreciate life). There is essentially no more doubt that mass media is both a farce and an opiate. It ruins the overall quality of our lives, it makes us aggressive & anxious, and it makes us susceptible to the corrupt, the callous and the sometimes cruel whims of those “in power”. 39
