I've come to the conclusion that the Internet is to blame for a lot of problems in the modern day society. 'News reports' are created just to generate 'likes' and page views. Your search results are based on who can pay more for page 1 of Google. Social status is based on social media. You are being fed more lies then ever before. People can take one little thing and add to it and blow it up into some huge "conspiracy" or "break through story" when it simply is just some wrongful interpretation. I can not tell you how much stories are being shared on facebook that are completely fake, but I can tell you that it is probably most of them. You can take any prison photo put your own crazy story to it (shit, you won't even have to cite it or add sources, because the modern person has no idea what it is anyway) and people will start sharing it because it's 'shocking' and 'grotesque.' Did you know there is a lot of musicians that became famous because of record labels illegally paying for radio time? *cough* Limp Bizkit *cough* we now live in a world that is driven by attention and money. Anything that gets attention is a gold pot, wither it's true, skewed, or completely fictitious. Did you know that Sony and Universal records had over 2 billion views stripped away from there YouTube accounts and also had video deleted on too long ago? It's because Google found out they were paying for fake views so there videos would quickly become the most viewed and there for get promoted on YouTube. Go on youtube, look up anything about government conspiracy or the Illuminati, those low quality videos with a bunch of made up bullshit gets millions of views while never once stating a single fact. ALSO did you know music video directors and lyricists exploit this by including "Illuminati related content" in their music and videos because they know there will be 30+ video on youtube talking about it for years to come.
So whats my point? My point is the internet is fucked and you should be more aware of what you are looking at and how you are desensitizing yourself. I've seen social experiments where people beat people up in public and no on will even stop and help, I don't believe this would have happened years ago. It's time to snap out of it and get out of this societal rut we are stuck in. Do you have no morals? There will only be few that get this far in this lengthy status update, but to you I salute. You care more then the average person and we need more people like you. I never ask for people to share my status but this is one to be shared because we need to wake the fuck up and smell the roses, not the bullshit.
