We are living in an era where we have too much information. We have easy access to the vast knowledge that humanity had gained in centuries. Our phones, TV and computers are bombarded with information. But, is this information really useful and relevant for us?
Human brain have immense capacity but when our brain is bombarded with too much information, it started to get confused. It can't process that much information. Thus, it makes us dumb and disturbs our decision making capacity. It is also noteworthy that this information is not diverse. In fact, we are getting the similar content everywhere. Quantum is vast but quality is not there. Romantic stories have the same plot, superhero movies have the same thing like a super villain trying to destroy humanity and superhero protecting the world. We have songs that are based on only a few things like love, betrayal and partying. News channel spread the same type of information. They don't enlighten our mind, instead they shape our mindset. Entertainment is just a way of pushing advertisements. News also sells products. There is nothing beyond consumerism. We are nothing but consumers for the companies from whom they get money.
This is our life but we are not controlling it. Someone else decides for us that what should we wear, what should we eat and what should we think. We need to get rid of this matrix. We have to wake up from this lucid dream.
Thank you!
