In this day and age a person is given NO CHOICE but to exist in ignorance. Additional information about a product or service is contrived to be seen as a caveat and therefore weakness
Manufacturers and government alike strive to keep constituents ignorant and sated with perceptions that any participation is unwarranted and a waste of their time. It is almost unbelievable the amount of resistance to active participation to learn about the reality of consumerism and it's effect on individual financial health.
"Let's gossip. No mental challenge. What? Read? You must be joking. Images shouting on a screen have more impact and entertainment"
A disbeliever are we?
Go to a news site. There is text to read and a talking head repeating the same information only with emphasis on certain words and phrases. These emphasis cannot be translated into words? Sure they can. But the sources of the manipulation realize a majority of the populace want their reality shouted into their skull along with images.
Simplify. Distill. Summarize. Minimize. Distract.
It takes six months (?) without television or radio (silence the voices) to realize just how insidious verbal emphasis versus the written word can be. Once spoken words dissipate, the written word does not. i.e. text messaging versus the telephone.
