Naked White People with Spears
Very Disconcerting Indeed!
In the main, I am ignorant of television. I will sometimes see a movie, or a series on one of the services, but have no interest in any series, or sports, or other television presentations, nor any interest in developing any interest. But I don’t live alone, and on occasion, the television is on. I don’t watch, as nothing on it is attractive to me.
Something else that was not very attractive to me was to glance up from my computer work to see a couple of naked white people, one of whom was bent over, and full on presenting to the screen.
Very disconcerting indeed.
It was from a television show, titled Naked and Afraid, or words to that effect. I was aware the show existed, but in a kind of ‘familiarity seen new’ way, I was presented with the image, now symbolized by big, naked, ass cheeks, of this show seen from a geopolitical point of view.
Consider it. You have from 2 to a bunch, maybe 20, naked white people with spears, knives, hunting bows, and other very lethal implements. You take these people and insert them into rural areas all around the planet, and then you film them as they kill, cook, and eat, the local wildlife. While naked. With spears.
So exactly how is this cool? Do the locals know this shit is happening? Are they ok with their sheeps & goats and pets being hunted by packs of naked white people wandering around with sharp sticks?
Oh, and there is also the presence of a whole mess of people in clothes, filming all this. They may be white, may not. We don’t see them.
Given the great geopolitical tensions, how are the locals tolerating being invaded by these Naked White Wandering Spear People?
And the film crews stomping all over, damaging the local environment? Is anyone paying for this?
Look, think about it, what would we do if our country was being invaded by a bunch of armed...people….with film crews..?
Hey, wait a minute! WTF, eh?
Since I've been separated, almost 2 years now, I haven't watched any t.v., I mean none. There is a decorative carpet over it on the wall in what used to be the t.v. room, now the energy room. I've cancelled the few subscriptions that were previously in place. I rarely watched it before, and now I feel exquisitely pleased with myself.
What Clif described above is an example of why I made this choice. I felt like having the TV on, even if it wasn't me watching it, was like permitting an invasion of street thugs with no common sense into my home. Disgusting. Always with a laugh track so you know when to appropriately find something funny. I feel like it's paying someone to abscond with your mind and your left feeling empty and frustrated. Replaced now by bliss. I have time for things that matter. Off to the hot tub for me now 👋
A movie I think you would enjoy, Idiocracy. People have become so dumbed down the best picture is a movie called ASS. 90 minutes of a hairy ass. The theater is packed. Sadly, that movie from the early 2000s has become a weirdly, prescient documentary.
