who here doesn't have a TV? | |
Q33  User ID: 77573015  Canada07/11/2019 12:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | i've been tv-free for more than a decade, and i love it! Quoting: jj johns when i used to have one, it was almost an automatic response to come home and plant myself in front of it, even though there was mostly just bullshit showing. ok, i have a computer (obviously) and can watch things on my laptop, if i want to. but, i don't have any network television access, and i really like it this way. it has allowed me a lot more time for things like reading or doing things that seem a lot more beneficial for me than zoning out in front of a propaganda box... it also seems that not having a tv has allowed me to see through a lot more of the bullshit and "programming". i would assume, since this is glp, that i'm not alone. how many of you threw away your tv? and, if so, what are the positives you've encountered? negatives? if you still have a tv (or many), i don't hold it against you. you're free to chime in to. cheers  I Have 7 do i use them neyet! |

Never owned a satellite dish system. I only view televised content at friends' houses or when bored in a motel room. I don't need all the TV-propaganda.

It's like pouring poison into your home. We do get over the air TV, but we never watch it, it's such a wasteland. Anything from the mainstream media is poisonous. And once you see bad things, you can't unsee them. When you are afraid of losing your life, you have already lost your life. Don't be afraid. |

| Trained Noticer Forum Moderator User ID: 76014573 United States07/11/2019 01:22 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Exactly. The Rural Purge was when the leftists removed the good, wholesome TV programs (anything with a tree) and began their "TV Programming".  For those who believe, no proof is necessary.

| terrifiedanimal User ID: 77162345 United States07/11/2019 01:44 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | We have several in our home, but they are only for streaming documentaries and movies from the internet. Kids do maybe 2 or 3 hours of gaming per week, but we do not consume broadcast, cable or network television programming and don't even have basic cable, just the fastest internet connection we could get, which does come in via cable to our router. |
| Grey Eagle User ID: 75412840 United States07/11/2019 01:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It makes you wonder who gave the order to eliminate traditional US television shows, and to mostly just push leftist control-propaganda on the airwaves.
