Entertainment, seemingly as tame as a lamb, is a villainous rogue that robs people of the justice and equality that they truly deserve. Though as naija gist and beautiful as a child, it lulls the oppressed masses into a false, guileful sense of security; comfort; and well-being. Entertainment, quite often, is the emollient that soothes the ever-burning, wounds in the human soul; gaffing society’s masses into believing that all is well.
In the light of these solemn, sober comments; secular entertainment in America-and just about everywhere else in the world-is evil and destructive. It blinds society’s masses to the truth about what is really wrong with the world itself. As it turns out, it is not that the American business machine is inherently evil or anymore corrupt than anywhere else in the world; it is just that the world is wired to create inequality, injustice, and imbalance-and false entertainment blinds society to the truth about what is really wrong with the world itself.
The stark, sour upshot of this whole analysis is that something is wrong with the world, and the “Haves” are paid exorbitant sums of money to slide a hand and cover it up. The handful of billionaires who run this world use various forms of entertainment distractions to veil the gaping wounds and epispastic bruises that society’s masses carry day after day. Isn’t it interesting that politician after politician steps on the stage of society and almost never mutters a word about the ever-widening gap between the “Haves” and the “Have-Nots.”
They may brush over it in passing, but they will never make it a major platform issue of their campaign. Why? It is because they belong to the inner circle of the secret that this whole world is a lie-a carefully told lie which movie-going fans would think that you are crazy if you ever mentioned it to them. The slick politicians already know that the world is a lie and that they cannot change it: They may tinker with it, but they know that they cannot change it; but society’s sassy movie-going enthusiasts are not privy to that information. They live in the shadow of deceit-and they die there, too. There is nothing as soothing and placating as a good movie or Super Bowl game; but you see:
The billionaires who put on those elaborate, serpentine distractions know exactly what to cook up for their stooges and slaves. It is kind of interesting when sports stars are paid millions of dollars per year; and teachers, a paltry salary that can hardly feed them and their families. And, paradoxically, no one seems to see anything wrong with that: Their eyes were not made to see those things; or may be, they are not even in control of their own vision! Their eyes were only meant to see the new Harry Potter movie or the Meriwether-Chaves Championship Fight! But why are sports stars paid so much money? It is because the lie in the world must create a parody that ensures maximum human suffering: And those who create that travesty of justice are paid plump, handsome salaries passed to them from someone behind the quaint door of mystery.
The world is filled with mystery-and some things just boggle the mind. A regional basket team wins the National Basket Ball Championship and their impassioned fans tear up the city, uprooting mail boxes and tossing them into streets. Does this, at least, tell us that there is more to sports than what we see with our naked eyes and what we have been told it really is?
Does any of this tell us that there is more to what we see and wish to believe? But again; people, lost in the smoke of false societal entertainment put on by billionaires; refuse to open their own eyes and see for themselves what is really going on in these massive entertainment extravaganzas. Football players are paid millions of dollars to break up their own bones, crack their skulls, and damage their brains before millions of screaming fans whose eyes gaze at the wrong thing.
They gape at the iron wheel of brawn crashing into the delicate, frail frame of a bad human experience. What they do not see are human beings ground up in the grillwork of evil. Years later, many football players wind up becoming vegetables; and. quite often, all this begins to take its toll well before they are fifty years old. Oh how sad; strapping, hulking athletic hunks are turned into zombies and vegetables, sacrificed to the idols of false gods. And by the time they open their own eyes; it is too late, and the damage is irreversible. In this regard, it is quite evident that something or someone else out there is thinking for Super Bowl fans, for Americans, for English people, for French people-and for people all over the world for that matter.
All these mysterious episodes and occurrences are repeatedly saying the same thing: Deaf and blind people can neither hear nor see! Oh what a piteous plight in which society’s masses find themselves; lost in the spinning smoke of rich people’s cruel pranks and funny games! Something is wrong with the world, but the rich cover it up day after day after day. The distraction of false, societal entertainment interferes with people’s ability to connect the dots in their world; and, for as much as such entertainment is the handiwork of the rich, they only cook up stuff that protects their own interest and well-being.
The slick, insidious lie of vain, empty entertainment from the guileful school of earth-conscious living ensnares man into thinking that the bogus system, with which he is confronted here in this world, is the only system that exists-and the only one that there will ever be. The fodder for that kind of thinking is derived from whatever interferes with the normal human process of thought and appropriate action. Such fodder is obtained from false societal entertainment: And such entertainment and the kind of reasoning behind it are all lies.
They are lies because the world itself is woven from the fabric of lies; but the masses’ ability to perceive this truth is blocked. The world is a carefully told lie that ties human beings to a place where they can neither see nor hear, and one to which they do not belong; but again, that truth is blocked, too. And the fact that earthly is a strange funeral is blocked as well: Even the power brokers and societal architects themselves fail to assimilate the idea of the clearly defined shelf life of their own existence on the earth; accordingly, they wind up deceiving their own selves even while they brainwash and trick all the rest of society.
By the time most of society’s masses wake up to the truth that they were all born rich with incredible natural intelligence ( skills, gifts, and talents), and that there was a shelf life to the wealth they were born to enjoy on this earth; they have long been removed from the false, brawling arena of earthly life. False societal entertainment not only programs people to accepting a fake destiny; it orients society around an insular, phony, earth-bound eternity-one that never ever materializes! The notion of life as an entirely earthly phenomenon is well received and understood by society’s masses-and that is just about all that they are told. Earthly life is all there is to human existence-and oh, how believable that lie seems; but just a casual glance at the architecture of the earth itself whispers to any well-meaning.
Honest observer that there is an intelligent mind of order behind the sprawling, cosmic landscape of the earth and the universe; and that, at some point in the future, a settling-up day is coming-a day to settle all scores, so to speak! Most people in the world do sense that there is more to life than what rich people tell them through society’s various socialization agencies and, in particular, through modern science’s evolution and big bang theories. If the provincial view, that earthly life is just about all there is to everything, is true; it’s kind of funny when evening after evening news telecast reads like long-shot Bible prophesies, far removed from the contents of what modern science and the media have been affirming to be true.
In sum, secular entertainment is false, not because entertainment itself is inherently false; but because the world is false and whatever it produces is stained with that fundamental blotch of falsehood. Secular entertainment’s falsehood distracts people from seeing what is really wrong with them and the world around them. Society’s masses, by virtue of intoxication with false entertainment, are told a lie that never allows them to realize and utilize the gold mine of the natural intelligence (gifts, talents, and skills) with which they were born.
Society’s guileful, vulpine brainwashing machine of mendacious socialization; false, deceitful science; and empty, bogus entertainment robs the earth’s masses of their inalienable rights. Yes, it strips ordinary people of their unforfeitable right to wealth, justice, liberty, life, and the pursuit of happiness in this world and life forever in the next one on the other end of the fast-approaching night. Societal entertainment is a two-edged sword of human doom: It coaxes society’s masses into accepting their lot of mediocrity from their rich slave masters.
It also blocks their view of a broader understanding of human equality and justice in a transcendental world that operates on a higher plane of existence, free from greed and guile. Thus, false secular entertainment is the smoke of human folly that obfuscates the minds of society’s masses and distracts them from realizing their full potentials and true purpose in this world; and ultimately, a richer and fuller life in the world that operates on, and presides over, a grander and broader scheme of things.
In this gripping, unsettling article; this writer presents some uncomfortable truths about how the world works; using the seemingly tame, innocent concept of entertainment. While he understands that, on the surface, entertainment is not intrinsically deleterious to anyone; he looks beyond the brawling façade of how it is perceived in Western societies (as an innately good, wholesome thing as oppose to the purpose for which it is used). As the saying goes, truth is stranger than fiction; nowhere is this adage truer than when It comes to human beings. And, as it turns out, the world is not what it appears to be.
