Please turn me off

Your telephone controls you. As children, we are psychologically trained to listen attentively to our superiors. This is why most people watch TV at home and in shops and waiting rooms. We must obey and listen to our superiors. When you think about this, for a few seconds, you may realize how much of your mind is not your own.

Multiply this brainwashing from the 80s by 1000 then you have 2022. TV, computer, tablet, phone, and game screens are demanding our attention all the time.

If you would like to get to know who you are, then turn off your screens for two weeks. At least once a year go on a holiday, on a desert island, without any electronic devices, and see the real world you have blotted out.

In southeast Asia, many parents work away from home and leave their children in the care of Grandpa and ma. Children as young as six months become addicted to telephones and tablets: cartoons and YouTube. They are often given a phone by the age of 12 months. They are used as a child-minding device by grandparents who usually lack the energy and interest to entertain young children left in their care.

So, we are all addicted to the screen: you have seen nothing yet.  They are quickly becoming tools for fascist governments to control you. Covid passports, location devices, and social credit reporters. Governments want to replace paper money with digital money so they can control you and your taxes. Corporations like Google sell and track your browsing to make a billion. Big brother is here. And now Biden has created the Office of Disinformation on the world as we know it: China has come to our Western doors.

There are many reasons to dropout. Health, economic, psychological, survival, peace, freedom, sanity, and fun.  These reasons are becoming more serious by the day. If you drop out now, you may be lucky to find a place to be free of all this Chinese socialism control nightmare crap.

Think about all the good things you can do without an internet connection. Some ideas to get you started. Growing vegetables, fruit, and nuts.  Fishing, riding a bike, bushwalking, and playing chess. Building a house, writing a book, painting, and drawing. Playing guitar, piano, and violin. Massages, meditation, praying, and thinking. Yoga, perfect sex, dancing, and holding hands. Cooking endless tasty recipes, bottling fruit, and making your own beer and wine. Talking, debating, learning,  teaching, and growing. Sports like tennis, badminton, surfing, swimming, and hang gliding. Communing with nature and the God, collective of the universe. Taking care of the environment: planting trees, caring for sick animals, and eradicating pollution in your environment.

A quick peek into the dark side.  Work seven days a week, pay exorbitant health and education fees, be told what to do by your public servants, earn a pathetic minimum wage, have the IRS take your tax directly from your bank account (to finance endless waste, wars, and wages) and spend all your waking hours working the Bitcoin and stock market. Stop believing in God, the positive and loving force in our lives that created the universe, and replace this beautiful energy in our lives with Artificial Intelligence--human and otherwise.

When the internet appeared it gave us a lot of freedom and independence. Now it is a tool for control, maybe it always has been. It is time to give it back to where it came before you are an irreversible zombie.
