yeah, people think that feeding into our reactionary side for views is something new, but television has been corrupting us since long before the internet.

i remember these stickers in the 90's... they used to be everywhere, especially in the subcultures like the punk/rave/hippie/skater scene:

"KILL YOUR TV"

i'm glad someone was looking out for me. killing that thing definitely made me a better person.
