You see,
I'm a normal guy, who leads a normal life. But when we take a step back, we start to ask ourselves "what is normal?"
Defined by google, normal is to "conform to a standard."
But who makes this standard?
The Media.
See, through television, the radio, the internet, social media, etc. etc. we've been told that "This is what normal is, it doesn't change."
For a while this has been true, people of my generation especially. are aware but seem to still follow societal norms. They take in what the media has to say, and practically live by it. We have teenage girls starving themselves to be models, young men getting railed on ******* and alcohol, going out and being reckless, winding up dead, or hurting someone else, because of the media. We have these enabling parents, who all know that feeding this is wrong but still fall into it as well to make their kids happy.
There are people dying every day, but those who claim themselves as "men of god" living it up in a 3200sq ft home throwing their money away to the church. The best part about it, other people do it too, it isn't just some specific problem. We all do it, and we sleep like children at night.
Want to know what else is wrong?
The pharmaceutical industry, handing out "medication" like it's free.
Want to know what's worse?
Your child dying because of it.
Thanks, Mom.
