    Default Television poll...

    ...guess I'm curious by nature and a poll would help to identify just how many people watch television on the forum. TV is really not the only culprit today for mind control. Digital radio can carry additional signals and smart phones and computers who knows how they can be manipulated? But basically if you watch television or not is a good gauge for determining if we aware individuals can be susceptible to the programing. Appreciate all that respond, thank you.

    Don't watch TV, no mobile phone and listen to radio for about an hour or two per year.

    Life including watching TV regularly is completely different than without (emphasis on regularly). Try it. Throw away the junk. At least ban it from your living room. Would you really like to invite all those strange and questionable characters (who appear on TV) in your house, living with you?

    TV and pills – give it a wide berth if you only can. Sorry, maybe I'm too serious about that. Laughter is good.

    No TV for the last 20 years (and never a mobile phone). Before that I watched TV very seldom, but people around me did. There was one exception: The Bold And The Beautiful (!) when it was first released in my country. Kid an I made sure to cancel meetings with friends and to hurry home for our daily (!) appointment with the Forresters (in the daughter's room). In hindsight that makes me wonder quite a bit.

    Haven't watched TV since about 1994. These days I only watch what's available on the net. When I need to decompress I watch old British comedy programmes and am always on the lookout for good stand up comedians. I'd like to be able to watch international rugby and football, but both sports have been stitched up by big business.

    Anyone who wants to stand a chance of being conscious needs to bin 3 things .....

    1) The TV
    2) The bible
    3) Their national flag (along with its' myths)

    I don't know where you found that info. As a broadcast engineer I can assure you it is virtually impossible to transmit any additional signals that are intended to be subtle enough to influence an audience without them noticing. (I believe it was tried in the USA on TV in the 50s and 60 and failed miserably.)

    The transmission chain (studio to receiver) is only designed to transmit sound that can be heard and vision that can be seen. For a start the audio amps and loudspeakers in radios and TVs only respond to the frequencies of human hearing. If you think subtle images can be slipped in between television frames, well how long do you think it would be before someone leaked what was happening (because it screwed up something in the transmission chain) or someone spotted it while "slo-mo-ing" through a recording at home and spotted it?

    Of course various technical and programme details are sent along with the programme signal (a kind of meta data), but that's data for your radio or TV to use (synchronising data, 'Red Button' data, subtitles, etc.) but you can't actually hear or see them. A lot of effort goes in to ensuring that!

    So I hope that puts people's minds at rest.

    If you want to consider the content of the programmes in manipulating the audience... well that's another story!

    (I have restored a B&W 60 year old TV that I watch old films on. Does that count?)

    I clicked no (I don't have "cable" or "Dish" or any "TV" provider) but I still watch stuff via the internet... and a lot of it is production quality stuff either from TV or one of "TV's competitors" like netflix etc..

    I think we underestimate how much influence these types of programs have on us, just showing a protagonist that is "anti-family" can be influential. The context of our entertainment is influential... where does it really stop? How much of it is intentional?

    We say we are awake because we think we have broken away fro the MS, but have we?

    We have all been effected by the past, by the mind control programming!
    Did we break away or are we a produced result?
    Are we following their programming as to what we think we see and believe in as apposed to the people we call 'Sheeple'?

    This divide as we see it between the Awake and Sheeple (Divide and concur) could all be part of their plan?
    We might be the one's shepherding in the NWO's Flash-Flag-Alien invasion?

    I watch some TV, and a load more alternate documentaries and research than I did
    say five years ago , mainly on the computer ironically , Recently I watch Question
    time every Thursday ( just to shout at them )..LOL . I look at the BBC web page
    daily for weather and news reports to compare against RT which I look at everyday
    ( research and updates ) and David Ickes head line page , Avalon and more....

    I watch DR.Who and Strictly come dancing and Match of the day if my team
    wins...LOL Then I like a few comedies and documentaries. The BBC and other
    mainstream have made some excellent docs over the years and I look at them in a
    different light with what I have learn't from the web.

    There is B.S. on both formats its learning to separate the good from the bad, and
    there is nothing wrong with entertainment as part of a balanced 'media diet'
    ...LOL Its down to personal taste and where you are on your journey.

    I see Sunny-side-up covered it.

    My post from mojo’s thread: Mind control TV in the 60's so what is it like today?

    @ 56 - This husband made a subliminal message to program his wife.
    “My wife doesn’t like to cook. We eat out a lot and I’m sick of it. Boy, wouldn’t this be great if I could get her to cook dinner and stay at home.” “…I put my final mp3 into her background screensaver so every day she’s hearing that play a few times a day…”
    My point is there are YouTube videos that as soon as I watch/listen to them I get a headache or a distinct sensation in the third eye region. They're mostly but not limited to the New Age and the relaxation videos. These are the videos that people add on the forum. Granted, some are intended for relaxation, but I question whether they’ve been tampered with harmful visual or auditory effects.

    Solution: I pay attention to the inner knowing or the voice that says, "NO!," when I go to click on it. As a self check, I'll watch to see if physical effects occur.

    BTW: In answer to your question, I don't own a TV.

    About three or four years ago (I wasn't awake back then) I got an internship at a multimedia company which gave me a first-hand look into how television shows and commercials are actually produced... And with that knowledge I gradually started to watch less and less tv to the point where I just couldn't anymore.
    I don't know anything about brainwashing techniques or subliminal messages, because I assume that is done by the production team of the television station itself, which is the final step, but simply the fact that I could now tell that 99% of what I was watching was completely fake just did it for me. I just felt like I was being made a fool of everytime I watched television. It felt insulting.

    You know those survival shows? Or those gold digging shows? Or those auction shows? They're all 100% staged and acted. It's pure fakery. Not to mention the fact that those who edit all the footage afterwards can completely flip a situation upside down and make it look like something entirely different. You also have to take into account that behind everything you see on television, there's atleast one (though almost always multiple) cameraman and a soundman who are told what to do and where to stand by a director who's there on the spot with them. Nothing is by chance.
    And, of course, time is money. So these guys don't go in and just start recording not knowing what to do or what to expect that day. Everything is planned, everything is staged. Those shows where they buy storage lockers for instance, they 100% know beforehand what's inside them.

    But I'm sure most of you are aware of all this already. Luckily. At that time though I used to watch a lot of tv so it was quite a shock for me to suddenly come to that realisation. And that was even before I saw television as a ways of brainwashing the public.

    I hated that intern job, but the experience has certainly been an important one for me. Haven't watched television ever since.
