Provocative thoughts

[Vexari]

Mass television-watching would be seen as Huxley's "brave new world" of anesthetized human consciousness, where people love servitude to invisible authority through greatly improved techniques of suggestion. Television would seem to have taken us into Orwell's "1984" where a television screen in every room exists in perpetual vigilance of the individual, where human consciousness is engineered by technicians of "goodthink," and where the worst horror is that no one realizes their condition of servitude because the oppressors remain invisible -
