RE: Are We Headed Towards 1984 or Will We Just Amuse Ourselves to Death? An Analysis of George Orwell, Aldous Huxley and Life
One of the best posts I have read on Steemit - I mentioned the frog story yesterday in a news related context - we all think we know the temperature of the water but do we? The barometer, to me, is the decline in originality of thought. Conspiracy theories (for which read glorified gossip), media consumption(now over 10 hours per person per day in the US, reality tv - reality? - adopting and inuring oneself into a fake situation is an interesting take on reality. A walk in the country is all most need.
Thank you. It means a lot to hear that something is "one of the best" you've read. :)
And I agree. Conspiracy theories - to a large degree - are like the reality TV of societal discussion.
