The Dieoff Syndromw - Why Is The World So Boring?
Politics / Social Issues Dec 10, 2014 - 05:33 PM GMTThe early leading member of Dieoff.org who used the pseudonym Mister Symptote later ran the So Boring World blog which seriously needs to be recycled with the same fire and determination! Mr Symptote was convinced he was right, which always helps. One of the key arguments used by the bloggers who flocked to So Boring World is the staggering idiocy of what's rightly called "mainstream crony media", operating an IQ or Idiocy Quotient north of 100%. This simply can't be called a conspiracy theory, because its a fact.
There are only examples so trying to imagine they are exceptions won't wash. Fabricated breaking news is one now-classic way for the Idiot Media to stun us yet again with their stupidity and obsession with non-events. One blogger said that what he called The Football Syndrome takes Money Sport to the peak of the pyramid of madness. High-IQ media extends this to any kind of Celebrity Sport. One classic example of high IQ media was the staggeringly boring trial of a South African handicapped athlete with the weird name Pistorius, whose trigger finger wasn't handicapped at all. For days on end it was the event of the century.
TV news trial coverage from supposedly "old established and reliable news providers" like England's BBC simply dumped other news item from anywhere in the world, to bore us to tears on a serial basis with breathless chat from just outside the Pretoria court room. Pistorius was crying, y'know. To keep their local stringers in South Africa at work fabricating junk news, the Numby Media did the same with an Indian-origin English passport holding bisexula millionaire who used a local equivalent of Uber taxi - and was offered a designer assassination of his winsome wife for a small extra charge. It was so fascinating! He said he declined the offer but had a nervous breakdown doing it. High IQ news providers even gave us the details of his PTSD=post traumatic strees disorder and how it was treated. How many pills did he take every day? You mean you already forgot?
Alternatively, why didn't he take up footballing? In any case, it was a wipeout opportunity for Dumbed Down Newzies, who really think we are even more stupid than them, to dump all other news for days. Even the daily slagging of Pariah Putin had to be put on ice while the trial ground onward. The Syrian war didn't count. It was Numby Nirvana.
Some bloggers claim this is all part of the Higher Scheme of Things. The CIA, December 9, produced a "heavily redacted" 6000 page report on torture without mentioning the word "torture" one single time! But the numbies got to work and we will have pics and info on how any DIYster, even Dick Cheney can do torture at home. All US embassies, even in Iceland, were put on high alert, the Numby Media told us, and showed us scenes of bored crows and pigeons walking round on a wet roof among the razor wire and the parabolic disks, somewhere. When do we move up to boobytrapped crows AKA "the poor man's drone"?
Intense Pressure to be Correct
The high IQ media has two goals. Dumb down the masses and destroy reality, but while it was operating the So Boring World blog carried other explanations of what happened to the media and the favorite was that PC-politically correct ran amok. Any Saudi Wahabite would be delighted with reports from the UK and France right now, that dangeros and "sensitive" keywords like "Christmas" are being "voluntarily censored" this year. Its now a "Mas Tree" in plenty of English towns, the media tells us, because "Christ" is a terror-prone word. In France, scenes of Jesus-in-a-basket AKA The Nstivity have been "voluntarily removed" in several town – they could be replaced by a takeout McDonalds in-a-basket but that's no longer sure. McDonalds sales, since their last and "historic" peak in April 2012 have been declining all the time worldwide.
On Russia Today, of all places, nearly 20-minutes of earnest business news chat and blabber went to redacting this Crisis of Civilization. Could it save the ruble or stop torture ? The crazy world of high-IQ media produced another explanation to thrill us all. McDonalds is doing badly, including domestic sales, "because the US dollar is getting stronger". No, you hadn't thought of that one for the simple reason its fantasy, but well worth a ramble from a chirpy analyst in a broker's trading room, with a "Mas" tree behind her.
Being PC about oil prices and their collapse has attracted, if that's the right word, a storm of pure idiocy in the already-dumb media. Low oil prices are a crisis! How can house prices in the UK, for example, go on growing without high oil prices? Its pure economic logic and all right thinking persons want and need overpriced oil, to keep Saudi Arabia and its pals in the GCC group funding "our" terror war in Syria. With nice high oil prices, Saudi Arabia can also employ people to put a felt tip through the stamps on any incoming mail to the Kingdom. You know it can only make sense.
However, if countries like England and France get so PC that "troubling pagan images" like mas trees and that guy with a white beard and a reindeer are totally suppressed, what would happen to those Saudi bureacrats with a lovely desk job in their post offices? This would be a great subject for a 45-minute documentary needing months to produce with a team of reporters probing strange things in strange places like Peru.
The explanation would be junk-scientific and the Idiot Media simply adores junkscience. Peru's glaciers are melting, due to power plants in China and this is threatening penguins several thousand miles south of Peru, in Antarctica. So Peruvians have lost interest in "Mas", and even mass in their Catholic churches. Its a grim world y'know. Those pagan images have to go, for one reason because Santa won't be able to run his sledge over the ice and snow which has all gone – and Al Gore warned us ll about it. He's a celebrity so it has to be true!
Find Out How to Buy Gold
Bizniss news in the Idiot Media has gone lobo with its mix-and-mingle of just about anything which can deliver a healthy low-truth diet for the unwashed masses. Pseudo documentary reports, which are basically ads can be seen and heard on a host of TV channels and Web sites. You can be told that knee and hip replacements, high cholesterol diets and not buying gold coins and trinkets are somehow related, magically related!
The voiceover patter gives us Sherlock Holmes, or Shylock Holmes pure-idiot logic. Buying those 50-gram titanium mini-bars topped with real gold (you can get it tested) will give you a nice profit when or if the gold price jumps. At that time you can cash in and take more tourist trips to places why they fry the McDonalds trash food in olive oil, instead of recycled engine sump oil like they do in your home country. Soon you won't need another false knee and your cholesterol count will drop off a cliff like the ruble or oil prices, the patter insinuates - but lawyer-correct it doesn't actually say that. Isn't that cute?
Much better, find out how to start a Crony Bank. Idiot media treatment of the uber-boring "bank crisis" starts by telling us the subject is so complex that average penguins, and therefore footballers can't get their heads round it. Those penguins just doddle into the penalty area, always offside and lose everything when the Crony Banks crash - as they do ona serial basis because "that is normal". Its a real shame we are all too dumb to understand the Crony Bank crisis. The "public service mission" of the idiot Media tells us the crisis is all wound up and finished, years ago, so forget all about it and revel in your "Mas" feat of idiot oversonsumption. Believing anything else about the Crony Banks is like believing Hamas propaganda, we are told.
Idiot Media is as chirpy and mindless as insidious and degenerate. If thre's a plan, which we can doubt, it will only dumb dwn the masses a couple more notches from where they already were. What that results in could even include the Mister Winston reaction – the Mr Winston of George Orwell's 1984 who secretly read things outside of security camera range of the vidcams that, by then, were already installed in every single home to mke sure The Peepul were celebrating "Mas" like they should.
