Best way to clear the air is to have it all out in the open.

In essence, the process of division is a way of thinking about things that is convenient and useful mainly in the domain of practical, technical and functional activities (e.g., to divide up an area of land into different fields where various crops are to be grown). However, when this mode of thought is applied more broadly to man’s notion of himself and the whole world in which he lives (i.e. to his self-world view), then man ceases to regard the resulting divisions as merely useful or convenient and begins to see and experience himself and his world as actually constituted of separately existent fragments. Being guided by a fragmentary self-world view, man then acts in such a way as to try to break himself and the world up, so that all seems to correspond to his way of thinking. Man thus obtains an apparent proof of the correctness of his fragmentary self-world view though, of course, he overlooks the fact that it is he himself, acting according to his mode of thought, who has brought about the fragmentation that now seems to have an autonomous existence, independent of his will and of his desire.

The means we use to do our work almost certainly affect the way we look at the world. ... I now suspect that if we work with machines the world will seem to us to be a machine, but if we work with living creatures the world will appear to us as a living creature.

Wendell Berry, Renewing Husbandry (2004)

We know from experience that no one can adequately grasp the objective world in its full reality all on his own, because the world always shows and reveals itself to him from only one perspective, which corresponds to his standpoint in the world and is determined by it. If someone wants to see and experience the world as it “really” is, he can do so only by understanding it as something that is shared by many people, lies between them, separates and links them, showing itself differently to each and comprehensible only to the extent that many people can talk about it and exchange their opinions and perspectives with one another, over against one another. Only in the freedom of our speaking with one another does the world, as that about which we speak, emerge in its objectivity and visibility from all sides.

Hannah Arendt

It's funny when people say that someone addressing the agenda behind a peice of media and calling it "properganda" is some kind of conspricy theorist nut job, every creator has their own world-view and they certainly are trying to use their art as a means of persuasion. I'm open about the views I combat and the views I promote in my work. Some artists may express a message subconciously (particularly in media for children) and some messages can be debated as to their interpretation (esoteric media). People seldom have the motivation to produce media unless they have something passionate they want to say. It could be passionate agreement with he status quo, because they feel it rewards them. Or passionate disagreement, as they are concerned with the plight of humanity and the maner in which the downtrodden are ignored, or their misfortunes are blamed on them.

Your view is shaped by the window you look out

Are you seeing the world as it is or as they want you to see it? The key to building stronger business relationships is seeing the world as it is. You see the world through the window you look at. Today's episode covers how those windows can manipulate, distort, and obscure the world as it is. How you see the world impacts thinking and biology. Too much of a certain view causes medical conditions. Too little reality causes mistakes. You need quality information sources to see the world better as it is. Those not influenced by advertisers, programming, and sponsors. Want to achieve more through business relationships?
