I’m cutting and pasting from an email about this very topic:
When I went to visit my parents Saturday, it was like a scene from 1984.
My parents are TV addicts. They have that blasting all the time, even when they are doing other things. Well, with the new Dub TV and help from Roku, they can have that going ALL the time. It permeated everything…it was hard to think through it. It was constantly going, constantly streaming.
I hate to say it but the Borg came up with a good idea. It is a constant source of brainwashing…even when it’s not being watched, it’s in the background, seeping into the subconscious. All JW.org, all the time. There is no way of reasoning with a person under that spell. It is eerie seeing it being used like that.
They told me of the big screen TVs installed in the Kingdom Halls. My father remarked how he’d never thought he’d see the day.
