Virtual Viral Violence

in steemit •  8 years ago 

So what do we afraid of in the media? Why it is so hard to believe in cryptocurrecies? Why facebook users don't go for steemit massively? 

A very representative example just appears in my personal social feed. One naive lady noticing us about a wondering fact of Schuman Resonance got unexplainably changed frequency last three days. Being of an educated person is not even close to enough to fight against such intentions. We'll need some compassion to explain patiently. I repeat, it is not enough too see how someone is wrong. You have to be able to be this someone too. Same as trying to convince yourself. 

Of course, it is very easy to google for people and to find a real last three days spectrum data from the university lab in Siberia watching all Schuman frequencies about 60 years. But why people spend their attention so shallow way? Our loosed a real training brain activity and clipped perception are the key drivers of any viral media content.

Stop to trump us

American's mindset (Hello, US media consumers, I love you, ok?) contain too much "show must go on" principle. The most politically engaged human being is there, even the "anonymous" movement is just an element of someone's media strategy. Let me explain, what is so wrong.

The key of understanding is included even in this language - you PAY the attention. Our attention is a basic resource you can spend around. Why do you spend it on these people from the manipulated media? Is there a better place to invest your time? 

"But it is so important issue, it affects all of us..." Not really. It affects only those who pay and those who got paid. There is such a law of the opposition from the basic course of the political technology. It has no matter on which side you identify yourself, any position just creates another side. It is well used by media and politicians - they intensely act (with actor's diploma sometimes) so you want support them or resist. Anything which has a matter for you become a hook which holds your mind on the wall of a suffer. Moreover, if you want to have some votes just start to tell the people something opposite they really desire. There will be such people too. 

But in the modern US it goes too far. There is so loud noise about some white house related clowns activity which people took serious and even start to "resist". In the terms of the viral media they support it as well. Sad, but true. There is no big difference between heads which speak with you from TV. Much different is not to listen them at all and maybe you will hear your inner voice trying to say something is really important to you. They just make you play in their games. So why is it so scary to play in a new blockchain economics? 

The world of rude oppositions is not something which our civilization is supposed to be. This way guides us to the self-destruction. Any information attracting our focus to the opposed rhetoric is just destructive. The only way to truly resist is developing of the alternatives. It takes much more creative power then stupid exchanging of all the known arguments because of the same reason. 

Be a poet not a prover.

This is a "part 3" of a serial: part 1, part 2

O, so great to be "blacklisted" by automatic bot here. This is a disappointing fact. A non-human algo-based reader made it more significant. Thank you, @blacklist, you shows us very well how much we need to go back to the real world to hear each other the better way. I've read a description of this bot and it had no any connection what I've mean in my post, of course.
