Tony Robbins says the root of most problems is that the people have learned to associate pleasure with something destructive.
We were all raised on literature and movies like 1984, WWII movies about the Nazi SS, Star Wars storm troopers, Terminator Rise Of The Machines, Star Trek The Borg, etc. Everyone understands the frightening imagery at an intellectual level. No one would accept any of these ideas if presented directly.
But that is not how it works. We have gradually been taught (through constant fearmongering) to link pleasure with all of the above imagery – which we should fear and abhor. All of the worst concepts in those books and movies are rapidly coming true, and Americans have been taught to cheer them on.
The keys to stopping our enslavement are
- Stop watching television news. They are the root of the problem
- Start thinking for yourself.
- Understand what the motivation of the fearmongers is
- Break the associations of pleasure with things that are meant to destroy you

You must admit that various church groups have been associating pleasure with fear for a long time… and the modern progressives just decided it was good value to adopt the technique.
Agree on that one, but I do go back and watch from time to time and it is very strange to hear how they describe things. Very sanitized, very filtered. I think the whole baby boomer generation are also the heart of the television watching community. We are in for changes as those people grow old.
I stopped watching all MSM news a long time ago, including FOX. It was a waste of time.

Haven’t watched broadcast TV in 5 years. don’t have cable or Satellite. If I want to hear someone lie to me all I have to do is find something broken around the house and ask my kids who did it!
