I managed to leave the social media matrix (facebook, twitter, instagram, snapchat, reddit etc) completely a few years ago, but I still watch current movies/tv shows. I feel like that's the next step to escaping the (((matrix))) completely. Do you still watch movies/tv/music? Would you recommend quitting?

i never watch movies or tv shows.
I'm 5 years clean.
I listen to music, but I don't watch movies or television.
I make my own music
Haven't seen a new movie in close to 10 years
Only TV I watch is NHL
Modern music?
yet you failed to resist the use of meme flags.
idiot
I'm doing the same thing, except with all easy pleasures. Have you read into asceticism? Tomorrow marks my third week without smoking marijuana, and I'm going to start nofap. Eventually I'm going to stop listening to non-classical music, then junk food, then internet. I've felt better and better after each thing I've quit. You can't be a fully realized man if you're satiated by Jewish goodies.
Lol you idiot you're gonna be so bored out of your mind. You're just getting rid of everything that entertains you. For what purpose? So long as you know yourself you should be able to see past the bullshit even while using it. I use Facebook, but not for friends, I use Twitter, but only for politics. Just don't use it the way they want you to use it.
I've been on semen retention for a while. Don't smoke or drink. I struggle with junk food and tv/movies though.
I can't speak for everyone, but I have OCD, and modern music fills my locus with degeneracy. I have a long-term plan, and one step in that plan is to eliminate all modern music from my mental diet and replace it with classical. Then, I'm going to start playing the piano again and compose my own music.
I also use Reddit to promote free speech since they love censoring people. I say the opposite of what the hivemind demands
>jew-llywood
good goy, do not even think about forgetting the gorillions.
there is nothing wrong with watching movies or tv shows, as long as you are constantly aware that in every second someone might be trying to brainwash you. If you are aware someone is trying to brain wash you, you cannot be brainwashed.
These people put billions of dollars into brainwashing you on levels that you can't even understand. It's better to just not watch at all and read books. Or, if you have to watch stuff, at least watch content made by redpilled white men like Mel Gibson and Mike Judge.
How is watching movies bad?
Maybe watching capeshit, yeah. Watch art films, not "flicks."
Start with The Seventh Seal.
You never know the amount of damage it has already done. There's no way to sense all subtle brainwashing.
I noticed too late all the degeneracy (sexual, drug related etc) modern tv actively promoted and started cutting down on most media.
I'm actually impressed you're still able to waste time that way.
I've seen all the greats you could mention, including Bergman.
The worst part is the normalization of degenerate lifestyles. Even if you don't believe in the lifestyle yourself, seeing it depicted on television enough will desensitize you to it and make you believe it's normal. And it's a self-fulfilling prophecy; if enough members of your society believe that behavior is normal, then the behavior becomes normal.
>Do you still watch movies/tv/music? Would you recommend quitting?
I do and no I would not.
I also left social media some time ago and traditional news sites.
I do not watch TV. I watch select movies/shows I research and find pleasing, inspiring, devoid of cancer and fwd thinking. One example for a show is :
en.wikipedia.org
Pretty good sci-fi... Bezos of Amazon picked it up so its available via Amazon Prime. Netflix also made some good content before they went mainstream. I also watch older movies/tv shows that are based.
For music, I use spotify and enjoy very good music.
KEXP has good live stuffs
youtube.com
Use shows/media to allow your mind to drift or to focus on thought streams. Use it to inspire yourself. The rest is trash frend.
Enjoy
how old are you? eventually you'll feel like you've seen it all. or instead of passively watching someone else's creation, you'll prefer to try to create things yourself.
or maybe not, I know 50 year olds who still worship capeshit.
>Would you recommend quitting?
Yes. The longer you go without watching TV and movies the more ridiculous they seem when you do. Especially commercials.
Music is fine, tho.
99% of artists who play on KEXP are cuck faggots. All culture, art, and entertainment died after WWII.
hollywood = hollow wood penis
movies = cum of devil
>No internet at home
>Live on a well
>Use propane and wood stove for heat
>No A/C
>Big workshop
>Lots of land, lots of hunting
I haven't seen a recent movie since my last girlfriend. Admittedly it was a good movie, that one about the girl that was a marine dog handler lady. I was pretty entertained by it.
Outside of work, which is my only means of internet and communication with the outside world, I just shoot guns, hunt with my dog, work in the woodshop and on cars and stuff. I gave up TV and all of that long ago. It was nothing but a waste of time and money. I gained nothing from it.
That's exactly what's happened. I live in an urban area in India, and everyone here watches American/European cinema and adopts the worst aspects of their society i.e. degeneracy etc and everyone's moving towards nihilism and all they care about is instant gratification. I don't know how much damage I've done to myself already.
kek, shut up pajeet. your country is brainwashed by big black cocks. i think it reminds them of the logs of shit that flow freely in the streets of your country.
I'm 21. I already feel like I've wasted a lot of my time.
Those stats only measure the tastes of people who watch porn. That population isn't representative of countries/regions as a whole, despite what Buzzfeed clickbait articles want you to believe.
Great thread. Bump.
Movies are made jews
Do you lift and/or read books?
Neen there. Almost 3 years now. Although i stuck my toe in gab and dissenter.
Read a lot, but I don't lift.
I tried Mastodon but it's been taken over by discord trannies etc.
False. Learn how to filter content newfag.
> All culture, art, and entertainment died after WWII.
brainlet
Yes give up watching tv and movies for sure. Music is fine if it's not mainstream nigger shit. I listen to music and it helps me get pumped up for working out.
There are TONS of awesome books to read. I loaded up an e-reader with tons of free .pdf books I found online and it'd take me years to read through it if even if it was the only thing I did all day. When do you even have time do watch tv anyway?
I'm always busy doing stuff since I stopped smoking weed, fapping, eating junk food and playing video games.
No I have Facebook for tinder but I haven't been on tinder in awhile so I might delete it. As for movies and tv shows the only one I watch is one piece, just sticking with it until it ends.
Never got started with the online dating degeneracy, but a lot of people here are on tinder now. Dating seems pointless unless you're planning to be married and have babies. Some might say it's a sin.
>psychedelic music and visuals
The psychedelic revolution was one of the worst things that ever happened to America. LSD and everything influenced by it is degenerate.
About four months ago I got rid of my music collection. It was a bit of a leap but I thought it was time. I haven’t watched tv shows of movies in 4 or 5 years though. Nect I’m going to erase all books newer than 100 years old even if they’re written by the losers of the world and cultural wars. They’re not helping me get beyond the frame of mind that accompanies modernity.
Getting rid of modern stuff is actually a good idea. I don't understand why you're still on Jow Forums if this is your position, though. Do you spend a lot of time outdoors?
Do you have a list of books I should read? I've only read works of well known fiction authors so far (pynchon, murukami, Hemingway, delillo, DFW etc)
Mostly older music, some indie bands are pretty good. Sometimes classical. Here is a modern song I really like.
youtube.com
Please. Psychedelics are what opened peoples minds to the deeper goings on of the world. If you've ever taken acid you understand the scope of things in ways you'd never think.
>Dating seems pointless unless you're planning to be married and have babie
i feel you man, you have been redpilled by your parents as well
> muh degeneracy
Unkike your christ cucked brain.
If you so choose, you can be :
> Educated
> Productive
> social
> Red-pilled
If you so choose, you can consume of various vices responsibly and direct the proceeds towards productive ends.
If you're a self-defeated christ-cuck who believes desert stories, you're a blue-pilled fucboi who will never live or fully understand life. Make your choice but stop ranting /pol psyops about degeneracy as if its based in anything other than kikery to diminish your confidence and free-will. Second guessing every thought that comes through your head as if some tooth fairy is looking over your shoulder to see if you're a good goy. You brainlet christ cucks are insufferable.
Yeah. I sort of grew up wanting to date because MODERN PEOPLE DO. Then I went to college, did the girlfriend thing, and I'm just disillusioned by it. Feels like the dating Jew is pointless and casual sex etc is degeneracy. Doesn't seem right. Can't seem to relate to almost everyone else in Urban areas who has bought into this degeneracy.
I went through a period when I wasn't listening to any music influenced by negro styles at all. I would highly recommend it to anons interested in ideas like asceticism.
I have taken acid, probably more than you have. How do you think I know how degenerate it is?

You must be a normie, because movies and TV are absolute garbage. I have to admit I am quickly becoming a fan of Chinese cinema though. Rampant was a great movie.
Are you usually this ignorant?
Thank you. Will check it out. Currently reading Gurdjieff.
>>people start saving for the future
Meant to say stop
No one else to talk to.
The elimination of modern stuff is as much about cleaning house in case I’m ever raided as it is an acknowledgment that this culture produces little that is not syncretic and erodes literacy. On the whole, I think as though the modern books I read are written by professionals of middling intelligence and I’m not learning from reading them—I’m intellectually stagnant and flailing about waiting for death.
Chinese Cinema is brainwashing too. I hate most modern European filmmakers because they cater to Americans, and American Cinema has been dead for at least 5 years. Indian Cinema is going through a bit of Renaissance right now as far as original cinema is concerned, but nothing you HAVE to see.
That's not a result of LSD, that's a result of Jewish tricks. A shitty person taking LSD is going to typically remain a shitty person unless they want to continue. I've taken sheets of LSD, I've smoked DMT a few times, and have eaten countless pounds of mushrooms.
Progressivism in the negative sense like you're talking has been an ongoing thing since the Women's Suffrage movement. Well before LSD was commonplace
>Chinese Cinema is brainwashing too.
Perhaps, but at least it's fucking entertaining, unlike the recycle Jew trash.
Watch classic opera (the old versions, not the crap where people still know how to sing but hold dildos in hands), like Magic Flute by Mozart. It's perfect antidote. Try to surround yourself with beauty, like in classical artpieces (so no symbolism trash or other low-skilled arts). That's what I'm trying to do.
(((-(((matrix)))-))) here, just dropped by for the lulz and to say drop your pants, it's the only thing left to do, carry on
My usage of psychedelics has only brought me closer to God.
Yeah, LSD is so good that CIA niggers handed it out to college kids. And it's so "enlightening" that it led to a complete abandonment of values and traditions held by our people for thousands of years. Was this process already going before the psychedelic revolution? Sure, but the psychedelic revolution was one of the major turning points in the erosion of our culture. Everything would be better today if LSD were never distributed to American students.
Symbolism has been in use since the dawn of man. I think you may be thinking of CIA created modern art.
Also to some junkies ITT: you need to make friends with normal people and stop taking drugs. You're only harming yourselves.
Checked. You're definitely a name fagging, memeflagging faggot and the 33 proves you're a kike.
I tend to rely on Western Canon recommendations or the lists put out by Stanford, searching key terms on Worldcat and sorting by date, physical libraries where I can shelf-browse, etc. It all depends on your interests. Kikeipedia will tell you what so and so has written. I read mostly history and philosophy. The former is best served by thumbing through bibliohraphies and the latter is a small world, though I do rely a lot on the SEOP.
It's ugly. The purpose of art is beauty.
Can you explain how some of the biggest leaders of religious movements have all admitted to psychedelic usage?
No, all movies are a part of the (((matrix))) you have to start reading books. Move to a forest and live off the land as currency was an invention to control the white man and all urban areas are under ((their)) direct control.
Symbolism isn't meant to be art, it's meant to convey an idea in a self-contained and self-explanatory symbol. It's like memes.
Nah do like i do i have multiple personas on the net matching all of the different states of mind i have.
If i am mad i use one persona and if i am happy i use another one.
Though i never try to hurt anyone intentionally.
Which religious movements? Modern ones? There may have been religious leaders in the distant past who have intentionally or non-intentionally been influenced by psychedelics, but giving the public access to psychedelics is disaster fuel. Psychedelics are basically de-socialization agents, and you can't have a stable society if everyone is unplugging.
>people abandon Christianity en masse with nothing to replace it
Christ cuck detected
>people start adopting new age religion
As if the old-age shit isn't the same thing.. Man made cultural stories to control human psyche
>left wing politics explode in popularity
Never go free-retard. Just because you engage in vice doesn't mean you have to become a brainlet
>(((civil rights))) movement follows
This was about ascending blacks and others into higher income positions so tax revenue could increase. Slavery had already built the nation, it was time to capitalize on it. It was all about money not actual concern for minorities and women.
>people start saving for the future and start " like, living in the moment, man"
As opposed to believing in kike-tales. Yes, eventually a nation has to find its 'soul'... Americas lies beyond the desert kike tether
>rates of marriage start to plummet
As it should. Most people from that era were miserable fucks in their marriages
>divorce becomes normalized
Don't marry a shit tier woman for the wrong reasons.
> Yeah, really, like, opened up people's minds, man. Like, dude, the world is, like, TOTALLY a better, like, place now!
It was time for America to grow the fuck up... still is
Schizophrenia is one hell of a drug.
Beauty, to some degree is in the eyes of the beholder
>Psychedelics are basically de-socialization agents, and you can't have a stable society if everyone is unplugging.
This could be said about tech as well.
I can't tell you specific leaders because I don't remember but if you look into it you will see that a lot of them have used them.
I still watch YouTube videos and use a brainphone. Tips on how to strip these out or replace with better alternatives?
Sounds like you had shitty experiences and know shitty people. Things change. The world isn't what it was in the 60s. As time goes on, humanity 'comes of age'. You weren't meant to be a sheltered christ cuck forever. Eventually you will be given access to anything you desire... It will be up to you with such God like capability to decide the outcome. What is wrong w/ such a freedom especially when you have been coddled for hundreds of thousands of years? Time to grow up buck-o. Also, you seem way too obsessed with psychedelics.. Hardly anyone takes them and you're overstating their influence. I have no clue how we even got there. I posted a music video and you went on a rant about psychedelics. Someone could watch that same video and have insights on spirituality. Yet, here you are ranting about psychedelics and degeneracy. Maybe such an experience wasn't for you ... As you obviously gathered very negative viewpoints from it. Sheesh dude.
>Christ cuck detected
I'm not Christian, I just believe you can't strip away a society's ethical system without having something to replace it. You missed keywords.
>As if the old-age shit isn't the same thing.. Man made cultural stories to control human psyche
Religions are a huge part of what makes up civilizations. Name a lasting, significant civilization which did not have a religion at the center. Religions are more than just a theory about the origin of the universe and the afterlife.
>Never go free-retard. Just because you engage in vice doesn't mean you have to become a brainlet
Societies are larger than individuals. You can't just give everyone free access to drugs which unplug them from the social system they live in. It's a threat to the stability of a nation.
>This was about ascending blacks and others into higher income positions so tax revenue could increase. Slavery had already built the nation, it was time to capitalize on it. It was all about money not actual concern for minorities and women.
It doesn't matter why it was introduced to the public, the public was newly primed to accept it thanks to the abandonment of the values of the past.
>As opposed to believing in kike-tales. Yes, eventually a nation has to find its 'soul'... Americas lies beyond the desert kike tether
Most religions and cultures believe in building inter-generational wealth and passing it to your children. You don't need to be Christian to believe this, but no society will be stable if people spend all their money on frivolities and don't leave anything to the next generation.
>As it should. Most people from that era were miserable fucks in their marriages
Marriage is not about being "happy." Having a good marriage requires effort. Love is a choice, not a feeling.
>It was time for America to grow the fuck up... still is
Does America look like it's growing up or collapsing under the weight of millions of shitskin immigrants?
en.wikipedia.org
Straight for your christ cuck parables.
This bitch was high as fuck
I don't watch movies or tv at all, and only listen music selected by myself. Go for it and start to read books or do something else.
>Would you recommend quitting?
Boomer here - I make a deliberate point of staying in touch with popular culture simply to fit in with co-workers and not look like an old fool.
Congrats for you home m8. Seriously. Very natsoc
Oh it's gettyimages :(((
If you don't remember specific leaders, do you at least remember the time period they came from? Modern religious leaders and ancient religious leaders are two entirely separate things.
>As time goes on, humanity 'comes of age'.
Do you have any proof of this? It's more likely that human civilization is cyclical and we are on the dying end.
>You weren't meant to be a sheltered christ cuck forever. Eventually you will be given access to anything you desire... It will be up to you with such God like capability to decide the outcome
That's new age crap. The average individual isn't gaining power, they're losing it.
>What is wrong w/ such a freedom especially when you have been coddled for hundreds of thousands of years?
Homogeneity is more important than freedom. A society which emphasizes individuality over homogeneity, even if it is prosperous, will be dominated by a society which is better organized.
>Hardly anyone takes them and you're overstating their influence
Enough of the people who did take them grew up to become heavyweight influences on modern culture.
>I have no clue how we even got there. I posted a music video and you went on a rant about psychedelics.
I posted about psychedelics because the music video you posted is a style of music influenced by psychedelic rock, which itself was directly influenced by negroid music.
are you me but from leafland?
Facebook to keep in touch with friends (not in the same country) and parents.
Music only if it's old
i sold my tv to a local pizza shop.
excellent decision
I do suspect that many people throughout history were influenced by food contaminated with the ergot fungus and mistook their visions as something divine. However, there's a difference between a few people having food poisoning and giving everyone access to a chemical which will strip away all of their positive social conditioning and desire to adhere to traditions. Tradition is like a collective game of trial and error; it exists in order to ensure the stability and longevity of a society.
> I'm not Christian
Then calm down with the preachy wrong/right, degeneracy, moralistic relativistic bullshit.
> I just believe you can't strip away a society's ethical system without having something to replace it. You missed keywords.
Then state that and stick to it. None of what your ranting about does that. Shitty culture and social bullshit does. Drugs don't. The Bullshit served everyday through media does.
> Religions are a huge part of what makes up civilizations.
They are and are becoming less so because the world is growing the fuck up and realizing they're training wheels.
> Name a lasting, significant civilization which did not have a religion at the center. Religions are more than just a theory about the origin of the universe and the afterlife.
Look at the trend.. Look at the history of religion. It's a progression just like language. It began with anamalism.. projecting traits of animals onto human behavior. Look where were at now. In 1000 years, religion will be totally different. It evolves. It doesn't disappear.
> Societies are larger than individuals. You can't just give everyone free access to drugs ..
Of course you can't. What the west/America lacks is responsibility and accountability. Without this, doling out drugs is dangerous as fuck. We agree on this. However, eventually you have to grow up. Sure, a generation might be lost ... But the next will say : Dam those faggots were fuckups ! No way I am going down that road and the nation matures.
> wealth
Means nothing if your country is filled with idiots. America has issues beyond drugs and it centers on idiocy.
> Marriage
The current generation is on the losing end of this. Women have been given an open door and a lot are becoming lost in their new found freedom. After they waste their lives, the next generation of females will learn from their folly.
> Does America look like..
Sober idiots that need to grow up
Just be selective with what you watch.
I make my own instruments to make my own music. also I make animations on the corners of my books that i write for myself too
Dude the cia gave people lsd because they wanted people to be more pliable to their whims. Turns out that wasn't the actual effect of lsd, it actually opened people's minds and fucked with the system. They stopped for a reason, i really think psychedelics are mostly good. Shit most people here are pro psychedelics at this position. I mean don't get me wrong they can be used for evil, but for the most part they sort people out. So long as they respect how powerful these substances are.
Cucks. The alpha move is to be on social media and everything, but ironically. You know it's shit, you know the Jew is behind it, but you go for it. Ironically.
You can still watch movies/tv as long as you don’t binge. When I’m on a nofap streak I’m too motivated and can’t even sit through an episode or movie because I feel like it’s just a waste of time
Is that how you justify it to yourself?
> Do you have any proof of this?
See pic.
See the evolution of language.
See technological progression.
See modern medicine.
See biological engineering.
See space exploration.
See science.
> That's new age crap. The average individual isn't gaining power, they're losing it.
Because they decide willfully each and every day to let some other faggot take it and manipulate what little they have left. Ignorance comes at a hefty price as humanity ages especially willful ignorance. The internet and information on everything is at a person's fingertips yet they CHOOSE to be idiots and give away their power. The potential is there. The cost of making mistakes has just gone way up.. As it should when you 'come of age'. There's nothing new about this principle. You've been on this ride for 100s of thousands of years.
> Homogeneity is more important than freedom.
Maturity, intelligence, and responsibility are more important than both. I don't have to think like you or believe the things you do in order to respect you and work productively with you to reasonable ends.
> Enough of the people who did take them grew up to become heavyweight influences on modern culture.
The only person who has a heavy weight influence on my life, thoughts, and decisions is ME. If this isn't the case for you or the masses, they're already lost.
> is a style of music influenced by psychedelic rock, which itself was directly influenced by negroid music.
Time to log off /pol. You're far to influenced by this cesspool
How old are you? How long have you been on nofap?
>Then calm down with the preachy wrong/right, degeneracy, moralistic relativistic bullshit.
See below
>Then state that and stick to it. None of what your ranting about does that. Shitty culture and social bullshit does. Drugs don't. The Bullshit served everyday through media does.
I did. You either ignored it or skipped over it.
>They are and are becoming less so because the world is growing the fuck up and realizing they're training wheels.
How is the world "growing up" in your view? Do people seem more enlightened nowadays? If anything, they're getting less and less enlightened as hedonism becomes more acceptable, worldwide.
>Look at the trend.. Look at the history of religion. It's a progression just like language. It began with anamalism.. projecting traits of animals onto human behavior. Look where were at now. In 1000 years, religion will be totally different. It evolves. It doesn't disappear.
You can't just strip it away and replace it with nothing like what happened during the psychedelic revolution. New age religion became popular around the same time, and you absolutely cannot organize a religion around new age mysticism.
>Of course you can't. What the west/America lacks is responsibility and accountability.
Not everyone is equal so not everyone can be held equally responsible or accountable. You can't just force responsibility and accountability on people who too mentally deficient to handle it. There's a reason why, upon the founding of the US, that men were required to own assets in order to vote.
>Without this, doling out drugs is dangerous as fuck. We agree on this. However, eventually you have to grow up. Sure, a generation might be lost ... But the next will say : Dam those faggots were fuckups !
As soon as hispanics take Florida and Texas, all federal elections and Supreme Court appointments will be nonwhite leftists until the country finally dies. There won't be any learning or growing; we are hurling towards destruction.
