YOUR TELEVISION IS CALLED A PROGRAM FOR A REASON.

The average American watches 4.5 hours of television per day. That is 31.5 hours per week. 1,642 hours per year. Over a lifetime, that is approximately 15 years spent staring at a screen that flickers at a frequency specifically designed to induce a hypnotic state.

This is not metaphor. It is neuroscience.

Within 30 seconds of turning on a television, your brain shifts from beta waves, the frequency of active, critical thinking, to alpha waves, the frequency of passive, suggestible reception. This was documented by researcher Herbert Krugman in 1969. Your analytical mind shuts down. Your subconscious opens up. And whatever is broadcast goes directly in, unfiltered, unchallenged.

This is why it is called programming. Not because of the shows. Because of what it does to your brain.

The news does not inform you. It programs your emotional state. Fear, outrage, anxiety, repeated on a 24-hour cycle until your nervous system accepts it as the baseline reality. You are not watching the news. The news is watching your brain chemistry and adjusting its content to keep you in a state of controlled stress.

Advertisements do not sell products. They sell insecurity. You are not thin enough, not young enough, not successful enough. Buy this. Take this pill. Drive this car. The message is always the same: you are incomplete, and only consumption can fix you.

They gave you a device that bypasses your critical mind, programs your emotions, sells you products you do not need, and keeps you sitting still for 15 years of your life. And they put it in the center of your living room.

The first step to waking up is turning it off.

Notes to Readers:

I can personally vouch for the hypnotic effect of watching television programming. I noticed it in 2007 or earlier. When I moved to another location and job and had to cut something out of the budget, I cut out the television. I still had internet via my telephone service, which was perfect. So, I have not actively watched TV unless sitting in a waiting room somewhere and sometimes not even then.

Turn the damn thing off. You can still get news on carefully vetted sites.
