Why Did You BLOCK Me?

The Internet has little to do with transmitting Truth, but is more about inoculating people against the harmful effects of the Truth

Television and Radio are PUSH: Program Directors and Editors and Media Experts determine what you will see and hear.

The Internet is PULL! You choose which links to click on. You decide which news titles and links interest you enough to read the article. You Pull in only the information that pleases you.

You choose which social media sites to spend your time on. Friending and Following is easy: you see and read what your "online friends" show you, what they have to share. When an "online friend" disturbs you by showing you something you don't like, they are "unfriended" with the click of a mouse. If they really piss you off, you can BLOCK them, report them as SPAM, or otherwise try to get them kicked off the site: "No one should have to see such crap! Nobody should have to listen to that nonsense!"

It's the Birds-Of-A-Feather-Flock-Together syndrome gone global. The Internet coddles and pampers us by reinforcing our prejudices, isolating us into pockets of unreal fantasy virtual interactive environs where everyone we encounter thinks like we do! Heaven!

Or, from another perspective, Hell, as the Net becomes less a tool to cope with REAL 3D LIFE and expand our options in REAL 3D LIFE. Nope. The Net is now the ultimate escape from REAL 3D LIFE.

And coming soon to a Net near you: 3D!
