Title: The "dumbing down" of men...I'm sick of it!
Post by: dov on January 13, 2008, 11:58:19 AM
...turn on the TV and I'll guarantee within the next set of commercials, at least one will have a man looking like some fckin retard who answers only to women..beer commercials, sitcom tv shows, etc...I guess most people like to see grown men portrayed as thoughtless, irresponsible children..fckin man up and bitch slap someone the next time you see shit like this! >:(

It is only the white men who are portrayed this way.  Black men or other minorities are shown to be wealthy, successful, or at the very worst normal. 

By constantly bombarding society with these false messages, women and minorities can create a more believable fantasy that they could somehow make it without regular white men.  Sorry...this isn't true.  All professional sports, and the money black guys make (millions), is the direct result of regular white men's interest in those sports.  We buy the merchandise, we go to the games, we make the money via pharmacetuical sales, retail sales, doctors, lawyers, bankers, construction managers, or other regular jobs. 

What we are seeing is the fruition of hippies who happened to control the media outlets (radio, ABC, NBC, CBS) exclusively until cable, radio, and the internet came along and told the truth...rather than some LSD induced fantasy :).

Women, the ones who are not totally brainwashed :), begin realizing the truth about age 33-34.  Then the "nerds" become the desirable ones rather than king kong black cock (which btw, is another myth).  Expect most of the those beneath this age to go for blacks and tapout shirt wearers.  Best of luck! :)

Ahh yess, this is the year of enlightenment. It's clear when we come to a bodybuilding forum and see other concerned peoples who see through the bullshit that's being fed to them on a daily basis. This is truly an evolution of our consciousness. And I love it.

Media destroys information. That's true. They also create culture. That's also true. They tell us what make makes us happy, sad, rich, mad, what to wear to "fit in" and how to look, etc., and if we start to feel that there's something seriously fucked up and can't quite put your finger on it, they tell you how to ease the pain as well. They tell you to just take a prozac or a zoloft whenever you feel worried about the world around you.

What we want to do as people is cleanse our minds of toxic cultural installments that serve to indeed "dumb down" the people.

CULTURE IS NOT YOUR FRIEND

For the person who efficiently manages his emotions, his thoughts, and the resulting behavior, he won't allow others to upset his balanced lifestyle. Selfish women/men might try to manipulate that balance, but if you can suppress your negative thoughts/emotions and question your momentary decisions before you carry them out, she will not drag you into the chaotic mess of a lifestyle she suffers from. You can't suffer without your own permission.

Glad you like :) I try to learn from those who laid out great philosophical views for our  generation and beyond.

All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him."
-Buddha

"Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well."

look at the demographic of those programs

turn on a spanish program and you will see a similar themed commercial but only in spanish and so on.....

women are protrayed as smart while men are protrayed at beer drinking idiots that can be easily confused with tricks.
