Terrence McKenna: Television is a Drug (Video)

YouTube – McKenna Archive

The late/great psychedelic sage, Terrence McKenna, discusses the relationship between media and violence and points out that television has predictable physiological effects, just as ingestible substances do.

“Television is by nature the dominator drug par excellence. Control of content, uniformity of content, repeatability of content make it inevitably a tool of coersion, brainwashing, and manipulation.” — Terence McKenna (Food of the Gods: The Search for the Original Tree of Knowledge)
