does the internet change the way you think?

[Large Sarge]

just going to throw this out for discussion/thought

going way back to GIM1, I guess 6-7 years ago.

anyway its my own theory that somehow the internet changes the way you think (I am not saying this in a bad way)

but around here we call everyone not "in the know" as sheep....

but if you think back, we were all sheep at some point, and then we got on the internet, and we learned.

but my contention is that the learning is quite different than reading a book... (or a college course)

like I said, it changes the way you think....

for a long time, after I put together 9/11, chemtrails, etc I said "most of the time, I feel like I am walking around in a bad low budget 70's movie"

anyway, no right or wrong answers here...

just curious

Thanks to the internet I learned as to who the Khazard and Zionist really are......it help me in many way to open my eyes to things that are going on now.............. one thing that I did learned was the meaning of
"Imperialist Yankes warm mongers".......

School learning is like dead learning.....most people or information is that passed on from dead people,or fixed learning where as the internet is more like live learning where things can change very fast or new things are readily learnt.It also lets a person go where their interest is in the moment.

Ive always liked learning new things but school itself can be incredibly boring at times and can knock the will to learn anything out of a person.
Real learning is more exciting and interesting and perhaps this may have a relationship with finding out the TRUTH about things instead of at a school where you are more likely to be fed a bunch of LIES.

i know that i own alot to some of you guys that were on gim1 and that are on here for helping me to see things more then one way . plus it helps to be able to look for stuff and learn things for yourself .

I posted an article here @ GSUS around a year ago, too lazy to go find it now, but the theory was the internets had reduced the average users' attention span further. Out with the old fashioned book for research/learning, in with the succinct article, conveniently linked throughout to sources substantiating the points made. Add the home video-editing revolution, free videos all over the place, watch on demand worldwide from the moment they're uploaded. I recall some old-time teachers in the '80s bemoaning how "television" had decimated the attention span of the current generation.

I can certainly relate re the internet. Can you imagine getting up to speed on NWO etc, enduring the "stages of grief" as you transform from blue-piller to red-piller, if all your research were in an old public library, books, archived articles on micro-film etc? I'm often surfing news/messageboards/etc while listening to an mp3/podcast interview, or keeping an eye on a video positioned in a different window.

Changed some for the better, some for the worst. Only if one attempts to find information, is the internet possibly changing the way we think. If you looking at ESPN or People all day, well, there isn't much going on there.

I will go back to farcebook now. I think I have to vote for American Idol later. ;D
