Who else thinks this is a terrible thing? It's having a big effect on our fragmenting social structure Jow Forums.
If a big event happened in the past everyone shared the experience of watching the news come in on their TV.
Everyone talks about where they were and what they were doing during 9/11, JFK, etc.
You would grow up watching TV with your relatives, watching certain shows. In the past you had to WAIT for one 30minute episode to come on TV per week. Imagine that? Patience is a virtue and normies no longer have it, especially gen Z who just get it all at the click of a button.
These days that doesn't happen.
>INB4 HURR TV IS JUST BRAINWASHING What makes you believe the shit normies watch now is any better? Netflix is still TV but just TV removed from the original format of TV viewing. That's what normies watch.
And look at the drivel they watch on youtube. Again, the brainwashing hasn't changed so that argument doesn't apply really.
Watching TV is redpilled and a pillar of Western Civilization.

Internet pretty much ruined my life. Smartphones even more. I have no attention span anymore for anything unless I'm drunk. That's when I sometimes watch tv.
Apart from that: the internet offers way too much information and sites like this is mostly negativity. It drains energy.

It's called YouTube, faggot. I've tailored my tastes to a narrow point of interests. If I actually watch all of their uploads per day I easily have 10+ hours of entertainment a day. Not to mention their fucking backlogs. New episodes daily from my favorite stars. TV is for idiots for a shitload of reasons.
Ryder Moore
That's the best news I've heard all week.

NORMIES just watch the same shit but on other devices, everything is streaming and/or on-demand. It's exactly the same kike garbage as old talmudvision but even more convenient. Screen time is way way up.

fpbp ignore slide threads

Not an argument.
The TV forced you to seek out stuff in a different way. The golden era of TV was the early 2000s where big cable packages with hundreds of channels were avaliable, instead of how it is now where 50% of the channels are just repeats of other channels etc.
We need to bring back TV.

This is what I mean. The human brain isn't designed to process all this stuff. It's an addictive but negative cycle of sensory overload.
We need some kind of structure to function properly, and that includes NOT having everything avaliable when you want it.
It's like the old saying 'if you give someone enough rope they'll hang themselves'.
Gavin Jackson
I agree. It's an addiction.
Ayden Jenkins
>Screen time is way way up. This too. TV meant you had big gaps where your shows were not on so you would do something else.
Plus not all TV channels were the same anyway. Watching the discovery channel or the history channel back when it was really good was unironically better than a lot of the crap normies stream these days.

Only boomers still watch TV in 2019
Isaiah Lee
fuck off boomers still love the local news and wheel of fortune
Colton Fisher
Boomers are more redpilled than millennials.
Juan Peterson
>sitting around the TV and talking is the zoomer equivalent of GOING OUTSIDE and talking to people

I have no tv or computer. I am at work useing the work.cell and my computing is done at the library. In my empty apartment I sleep on an expired foam mattress that reaks of my own body odour. In the corner I have a pile of books to keep me entertained. A MAGA hat sits crumpled in top of a pile of soiled clothes. An aug/Sept issue of penthouse forum letters sits opened next to a baseboard in the East corner.
