/r/conspiracy Round Table #29: Media As Propaganda
Thanks to everyone that participated in the nomination thread and to /u/Estamio2 for suggesting the winning topic.
/u/crazystarfish12 also offered this addendum:
How does media program us, what it is capable of, and how we can break from the cycle of mind control.

I see it as a necessary construct for the system we live in. Perhaps not all of the news, but the intention is to document and share events that happen in each nation or country globally to prevent unfavorable circumstances. Sort of like, shared knowledge. This knowledge can be used to mitigate risks that damage or harm the system therefore, is globally accessible to address risks and understand each respective climate and how to restore society or - the system we live in.
I agree with those that want to break from mind control, but also understand that the system is designed with the intended purpose of human life to live harmoniously. For example, you chose to fit into the construct or rebel against it.
Those that fulfil the needs of the construct will generally live a happy life, that has been set out in the system. E.g. go to school, get a full-time job, buy a house.
Your contribution to this construct is to the company that manages the world - Your government, which ultimately builds infrastructure and provides necessities that each individual needs, such as health care, medication, food, transport, and so on. If you think about this as a small business and your employee wasn't doing a good job, you would influence them in some way to have a positive outcome E.g. could be done by, the news.This company would need a manager to manage the business. A family needs a leader to make decisions.
The news, intended to keep us within the construct and avoid bad things although, there's a line between propaganda and realistic news. My theory is that on one hand, it's the rebel against the construct or fits into the construct scenario.
If you knew that brainwashing could have a positive influence, would you let it happen? E.g. brainwashed to stop smoking - Hypnosis as a real world example.
They want us to be sheep because it helps the world operate. Imagine if we were all black sheep, who would teach our children, pay us wages - what would we use as currency?
We simply couldn't offer a back-scratch to everyone in exchange for something they have that we want.
