no you're not the only one. i'm sure the "idiot box" does brainwash people ... like ads, weird programs and all that affect the way of your thinking and sometimes your behaviour

TV does control our lives but I am not complaining. Without it we wouldn't know what to do.

Re: Does TV brain wash people?

yes I do in fact
can you explain why people would spend thousands of dollars on yu-gi-oh cards?
or why there is a mcdonalds and a wal-mart in every country on the planet?

it is called subliminal advertising wal-mart use to play a song over the intercom that secretly said "you are a good shopper good shoppers dont steal" and they ended up getting sued for it
I myself think this is scary for those who cant see it or hear it

@Zackraa
yup so true ... little kids spend so much money on anime cards and games sometimes it's scary >_<
and about mc.donalds and such companies, they are spread all over the place ... and spreading even more because they advertise themselves 1000 times a week ><

Re: Does TV brain wash people?

Ah? I rarely watch TV for that very reason. Then again, even if I were to watch TV, I am the charioteer of my mind, so I don't get mesmerized and brain washed by them TV commercials. But, I agree with you, LC. It is very sad to see a lot of kiddies fall into those traps like falling ducks. Haha. It also follows the phrase: Do in Rome as Romans do. If one kid sees that another has a PS2...he will fry his parents to death until he gets on his hands. Haha. All I have to say is: Grow up my little fellows and control your mind. No, I am not a hypocrite!

I think you still can, but mods have that power, so I would send them a PM, LC. Good thread, by the way.
