Mainstream Media & changing the world

[psychedelic]

Mainstream media, Ads, etc are everywhere and we start believing the messages they send out to be true, to the subconscious mind level I believe. If all media was changed towards promoting peace, love & unity which will ''wake'' everyone up so all humanity can work together and advance and achieve greatness.

What are your thoughts?

But where are the profits from that?

 

[psychedelic]

By promoting unity and not individualism surely we will come up with a way for everyone to have everything they NEED because there are enough resources. Then we can work TOGETHER to do whatever.

Direct subconscious influence and control.
The thing is that knowing everything about yourself and knowing exactly how every part of your body works, knowing how your brain processes reality can be very helpful.
Once you learn how you can be influenced and controlled:
1)You can protect yourself very easily, or automatically, not only by knowing yourself but by knowing how the "control industry" works.
2)You can experiment on yourself, improve your life.

To truly know yourself physiologically and psychologically truly mean you own your life, full control with guaranteed success.

I guess you could use adds for "inducing" love and unity but what would be the point of messing with natural progress.
We will all come to realization over time.


But, THE BEST control weapon must be memes, or fashion.SO, when love and unity will become a mainstream deal....only than.

Let's just hope until we get there we wont have to pay "money" to live on earth and to get what we all deserve since we are born on this planet
.Maybe until then we will stop forbidding/banning nature.

General audiences have been believing that the messages spread by mainstream media are true for many decades now. And of course the media shapes the mind of the audience even if the messages are not taken at face value. But changing "all the media" equals changing the whole system, because the media work along with the tendencies of the system, or right away serve the system.

So yes, if we could replace all the content of the mainstream media towards promoting peace, love, sustainability, unity, etc., that would of course have an effect in the global mentality. But the plan goes inside of the idealist bag of candy, like suggesting to cut off the world military expense for a week in order to solve world hunger.

To change the media you need to change who owns the media and their reasons. Probably by the time that was done, the role of the media would not be a pressing concern.

I agree with you, Ive been researching how about subliminal messaging and how media can influence the opinions of masses. (Iraq war/tonkon) "pardon my spelling". The questions is how to do that?

We had no such change only illusions of changes.And we can't just change them by running out on the streets.
The best way is changing mentality, if they have no one to control then they become the minority.

YES.

Edit: Thinking about it... the point of changing the media was to change the mentality, hah.

Yes, the media may change if the audience changes enough, but my point was that changing the whole system cannot be achieved by trying to change the media. I work in the media, and we all like to think that our field is so important and everything evolves around it and so on, but I've come to think that the media are a symptom, a tool if you want, but they are not the lever point to trigger a change. Not the way the system is structured.

Here's my idea: ANYTHING can be changed by creating a counter opposite. You don't need a war, you don't need to argue with anyone, you don't need to be illegal. Just get a bunch of people together who are living by the same honest principles you do and start a truthful, ad-free based publisher house. Anything can be totally reworked this way, you just need some dedicated, hard working people who are willing to do what they're about to do not because it's aimed towards profit, but because they believe it's the right thing to do with their life.

Get my drift? Work the system another way, it's pretty clear attacking it will not do anything beyond hurting people.

I have a friend who has his marketing degree and has been working in the field for years now.

He says that its disgusting how susceptible people are to advertising. Its gross how much a positive correlation there is between money pumped into advertising and product purchased.

We are sheep. The fact that someone would choose a brand name over a generic ever is testimony to that. Its the exact same thing people!
