I guess a bit better way to phrase it would be that irregardless of popularity, any thread that could be of interest and if i spent my time at the top
thread i'd sift though drama for 2 or 3 relevant posts out of 3 pages of shock, and countershock.
Topics get starred and flagged a lot on emotions, not based on meritorious content, and i'm more interested in issues than emotion. Same thing if i
were to attend a social function, while everyone else is finely dressed working their way towards the social center with gossip and drama, i'd be in
the corner unseen, engaging in critical thought session of LLO (look, listen, observe) or in said corner discussing in depth the inner workings of
something in intricate detail, be it sociology, technology, spirituality, or anything that has many facets and dimensions.
You could show me pictures of the top 100 celebs and i'd probably be hard pressed to come up with a single name match, same with sports, and all the
other idle distractions of drama, it's just completely meaningless to me, as is al the references to stuff on the television, which i don't ever
see. Nobody I really associate with watches tv either, so i'm accustomed to not being exposed to the social toxins associated with what's
broadcast. When i do interact with "matrix people" i usually am confused because most of what i hear is references to and emulation of purely
fictitious people and things, not based in any real reality, but in one carefully crafted for maximum psychological effect by those who wish to alter
mass reality for nefarious means.
To me, the facade is transparent and even when i do randomly catch a snippet of what the TV followers are watching, it's shallow and only serves to
highlight the root of the psychological problems that plague our souls. I can see the root cause of the ills of society in every contrived 7 minute
attention span reducing snippet of sitcom brainwashing, every shallow and morally low standard exemplified and glorified, and the scariest part, is
all the millions that are home watching, hanging on every false word of a false medium as if it were the word of god, actually sometimes even moreso.
I just get the same feeling when i read a top starred and flagged post and it's the same format, subconsciously, of short soundbyte type snippets of
completely predictable responses based on the expectation of what shallow perceptions would construe or misconstrue the subject as. I'm not calling
all the posts that are popular shallow, but there's a LONG shallow section to wade around in looking for the one deep hole in the entire 10-100 pages
of random senselessness that seems to abound. I just don't have time to sit for 12 hours a day and wade through the muck, so i've gotta be
selective in avoiding the masses of emotional posts with no real opinion or content. I sek out those 12 dimensional dodecahedron type puzzling posts
that actually stimulate my neurons with deep thought. When i do post in the shallow "sandbar" subjects it's like i dig a hole that if recognized
for what it is, is usually called off topic, anti corporate, anti government distraction, when in reality most are just concerned with keeping the
sandbar a smooth and shallow place to have fun with no treacherous holes in which to fall into. My anti corporate anti government statements are
usually exactly pertaining to the topic, just not in such a way that is made obvious if you LLO and are truly impartial in your analysis.
This isn't directed at anyone, since we're all of the same consciousness anyway, it's directed at the collective state of affairs that have been
pushed upon, and received by, the populus. I'm here on ATS because you guys represent what i consider the upper echelon of sense, sanity, and logic
on he internet, and i truly appreciate all of you here, there is more good content here than i find anywhere else, it's just that it's not usually
found in the juicy topics due to the things that make said topics appeal to the masses.
Some of the most obscure posts where someone lays out their detailed perception of the intricacies of their thoughts, theories, hypotheses and theses
that receive no attention from the flag and star people are the most interesting. I'd rather read 4 people's deep opinions on the root issues of
the state of affairs than sort through page after page of cosmetic opinions, and discussion of the effects rather than the cause of things. I find
not many people like to talk about (or even have the knowledge and wisdom) "what's really the problem" and avoid it by focusing on the end
result.
Does that clear it up a bit?
