Re: Reader: 'Hi Hobie...I'd like to point some....

Dear Reader and Hobie

I share the same issue as Reader-I want to read, not listen. But as you can see, its getting to the point that all we get are videos, and it also seems most presenters are not capable of self editing. At least now perhaps others will join me on my soap box.

Do you understand how we got here? Twitter. At first they limited people to 140 characters. This started the literacy dumbing down of America. Compare what you can say in 140 characters to the Federalist Papers. We have been deliberately dumbed down to lose our ability to analyze and articulate because its easier to govern those too stupid to speak clearly.

I have a suggestion for those who read here: Maybe we should take a clue from Forbidden Knowledge TV-they transcribe all of their videos. We should do that for each other. There are people who love Lionel, but I never listen to him anymore. He used to take 5 minutes per broadcast, now all of his videos are more than an hour. Ditto David Wilcock-now most of his broadcasts are about 5 hours. I simply will not give him that much of my time.

If you know you are going to listen to someone, no matter what, why not transcribe and post (with date time stamps) for others. That way they can otherwise enjoy reading something they will otherwise skip.

For one, I am VERY grateful for raising this issue for all of us. Its haunted me also. Thank you, and thank you Hobie for posting.
