the problem isn't Disney, its "parental" there is no parental control over the media our children sees. Our hip hop videos are far far far worse than what ever Disney will put up.

Thanks for sharing; that was a good read. And I agree wholeheartedly: propaganda is a very potent tool in shaping culture. Truth be told, you cannot escape propaganda. It starts with what you're being told as a child by your parents at home. Religion and the multimedia are agents of propaganda that influence us soon afterwards. It is sociocultural conditioning. It stands to reason then that our current culture is a product of propaganda as well(as used in the text: information). And our current culture is heteronormative because these were the stories that were propagated and popularized for ages. They are the stories that have shaped our thinking and expectations.

If heteronormativity is a product of propaganda (as every homogenous culture must be a product of external conditioning) how does it then have such irrefutable merit? And why must we now stop the propaganda from allowing diversity when it is that same propaganda that excluded these naturally occurring tendencies in the first place?

There are two variables to be considered here: biology and sociology; interior and exterior. The interior is the construct of the individual, and the exterior is the social construct. The individual would find fulfilment in expressing their biology (interior) but social conditioning may put them at variance with that if their preferences are prohibited. Imagine creating an artificial environment where, via propaganda, homosexuality were touted as the only acceptable form of being. A heterosexual person would ultimately feel caged because the exterior cannot change the interior. Social conditioning cannot change biology. It can only force a person to suppress their biology at the expense of their happiness. Since you already started with the Architecture metaphors, there is a popular phrase that comes to mind right now: Form follows function; instead of function follows form. Designing spaces from inside out allows a building spread out organically. Naturally. Truthfully. Working from the outside in, is a sculptural approach that is concerned with political correctness and keeping up appearances at the expense of functional fluidity; often creating awkward spaces that greatly compromise use. By that, I mean that biology must be considered when we chose to apply propaganda to condition our environment.

What Disney want to do is to be more inclusive, so that everyone feels accepted. They are not imposing the gay culture on heterosexuals because they would still cater to a heterosexual audience by telling their numerous sappy love stories featuring princes and a princesses (or some modern derivative). They already deviated from the predominantly white characters to include Arabian and Chinese characters (in Jasmine from Aladdin and Mulan) and they are also contemplating featuring an African princess after the success of Marvel's Black Panther. Does that mean that white people should suddenly feel threatened by some crazy notion that black people want to impose their culture on the world? I think that's just silly. It's all in the interest of diversity and finding new niches that can rake in substantial profits. If anyone seems to be imposing on the other, it is heterosexuals who expect gays to conform to their lifestyle and not the other way round. Gay people only want to be allowed to be themselves. They don't want stories to preclude heterosexuality, they only want stories to stop excluding gays. Why does this matter? Stories give us something to look up to. They make us hopeful. And everyone deserves to see a world of possibilities.

It is expected that there would be more gay people once there is more acceptance in society. But that is only because they would feel safe to come out of hiding.

I liked Moonlight a lot. It made me very emotional; and I cannot fault the fact that it won three oscars. But I think it's very disingenuous of you to find the fact that the LGBTQ story won 3 oscars when La La Land won 6 that year. I would say it was La La land that swept the awards last year and not Moonlight. Why did La La Land sweep up the awards? Is there a potential conspiracy theory here?

Oscars 2017: And the Academy Award goes to... diversity
By Neil Smith
Entertainment reporter
You might have missed it amid all the hubbub, but a film about a gay black man just won the best picture Oscar.
Not only that, but one of Moonlight's stars - Mahershala Ali - became the first Muslim actor to win an Academy Award.
And best supporting actress Viola Davis, star of Fences, made history as the first black woman to win an Oscar, an Emmy and a Tony for acting.
Moonlight wins best picture - minutes after La La Land is accidentally announced
List of winners in full
Ceremony in pictures
Diversity. It's a word that gets bandied around so much, and so often, it runs the risk of becoming meaningless.
It's worth remembering, though, that only 12 months ago the #OscarsSoWhite controversy was all Hollywood was talking about.
Two years of all-white line-ups in the four acting categories stung the Academy into taking concerted measures to broaden its membership's make-up.
Viewed in that light, this year's list of award winners makes for much more encouraging reading.
Yet it wasn't just the winners who reflected the "identity rainbow" Jodie Foster spoke about at a pre-Oscars rally.
From Loving's Ruth Negga to Moonlight's Naomie Harris to Lion's Dev Patel, the losers were a pretty diverse bunch too.
Auli'i Cravalho, an actress of Chinese, Irish, Native Hawaiian, Portuguese and Puerto Rican descent, sang a song on stage.
And Lion's Sunny Pawar, an eight-year-old boy who was born and raised in a Mumbai slum, got lifted aloft by Jimmy Kimmel, the ceremony's host.
Fashion at the Oscars
Oscar ceremony reviewed
Highlights of winners' speeches
Millions around the world were watching last night. President Trump, however, is not thought to be among them.
Yet that didn't spare him a ribbing from Kimmel, or from being taken to task both obliquely and directly.
Asghar Farhadi, the Iranian director of best foreign film The Salesman, stayed away in protest at the Trump administration's travel ban on immigrants.
In his absence, a speech was read out that castigated the "inhumane" legislation for disrespecting his homeland and the six other countries it targeted.
There were many moments to cherish at this year's Oscars - some humorous, some moving and some downright calamitous .
Yet perhaps the most telling came when the stars of Hidden Figures arrived to announce the winner for best documentary feature.
With them came Katherine Johnson, the 98-year-old African-American woman who was one of the real-life inspirations behind the space race drama.
Could a woman born in 1918, who has lived through Jim Crow, segregation and the fight for civil rights, have ever dreamed of a day when her presence at the Oscars would generate a spontaneous standing ovation?
La La Land may have won the most awards at this year's ceremony, but diversity was surely the biggest winner of all on Hollywood's glitziest night.

MISEDUCATIONS:
but gays still want a gay bond regardless of profitability. they are pushing an agenda not a story that will play well. you need to educate yourself on agendas.
Gays want to force their lifestyle through movies while you naively shout "Hollywood is trying to be inclusive". you are an atheist and you see nothing wrong with homosexuality but the rest of us do.
that Sesame Street petition you glossed.
Gay people have been around for as long as modern humans have and in that time heterosexuality has been the dominant lifestyle that was more or less forced on said gay people. tell me, has that made gay people disappear?
And It always amuses me when bigots hide behind religion as their justification for hating other humans like them. why does she have to be an atheist? because she wishes everyone lived his life and lets others live theirs? educate yourself, mate.

Gay people simply existing won't make everyone gay in as much as rearing goats won't make you start communicating with people by bleating.

but for the sake of this argument and to show you how shallow your logic is, let us assume that what you said is true and we're all going to become gay:

Let us say the first 50 modern humans appeared around 10,000 years ago and among them were 5 gay people (not accounting for anyone in the closet). That makes them 10% of humanity.
scale that up to today's population of 7 billion and you have around 70million gay people. but because the gay people are turning us, we now estimate gay people to be around 150 million worldwide.
at this rate, it'll take us roughly 50,000 years to become a planet inhabited solely by homosexuals.

and guess what, this 'underpopulation' in the west that you speak of.. they have the right idea. Earth is finite and at this rate we're going to burn through all resources and face extinction 83 times faster than it would take us to gay our species into oblivion.

So maybe you should reshuffle your priorities and drop uncontrolled breeding to the bottom of your list.

WORDWORLD:


Who would you think wrote these words?!

"There are television sets in every home, every restaurant, every hotel room, and every shopping mall— now they're even small enough to carry in your pocket like electronic rosaries. It is an unquestioned part of everyday life. Kneeling before the cathode-ray god, with our TV Guide concordance in hand, we maintain the illusion of choice by flipping channels".(chapters and verses). 1

The writer was the man who founded the most famous public Satanist organization in America (the Church of Satan founded in 1966), Anton LaVey. He is also the author of a number of other books including "The Satanic Bible."

In all seriousness, LaVey continues to promote the religious significance of television, saying that:

... The birth of TV was a magical event foreshadowing its satanic significance. The first commercial broadcast was aired on Walpurgisnacht, April 30th, 1939, at the New York World's Fair. Since then, TV's infiltration has been so gradual, so complete that no one even noticed. People don't need to go to church any more; they get their morality plays on television.2


LaVey compares satellite dishes and antennas to church-top crosses and notes that TV has become, in effect, the major religion of the masses, even calling the television set the Satanic family altar.

In his book entitled The Devil's Notebook, published in 1992, LaVey espouses more of his Satanist philosophy and describes in detail how he sees television as the major mainstream infiltration of the new Satanic religion. He likens the entertainers and newscasters to the clergy of the TV religion, who use their cathode-ray pulpit to spread what he calls the word. He says that the local newscasters are the parish priests who are part of what he calls a church.

Certainly when looking at television today, one wonders how we have grown to tolerate such violence, sexual innuendoes, explicit sexual scenes, evolutionary humanism, profanity, and so on.

Anton LaVey sees television as the medium through which Satanism is being promulgated more and more. What then is Satanism? There are certainly different forms, but Satanism for LaVey boils down to the worship of man. It is nothing but evolutionary humanism (man is an animal and man sets the rules) which is the underlying philosophy of most television programming. No wonder LaVey characterizes television the way he does. As we will see, evolution is foundational to his Satanism.

Burton Wolfe, a priest in the Church of Satan, in the introduction to LaVey's Satanic Bible, states:

"Satanism's growing popularity has naturally been accompanied by scare stories from religious groups complaining that the Satanic Bible now outsells the Christian Bible on college campuses and is a leading causative factor in youngsters turning away from God."3

Certainly the philosophy of Satanism is alive and growing on college campuses.

Burton Wolfe claims that LaVey maintains that "evil" is "live" spelled backward and should be indulged in." He goes on to say that Satanism is a "blatantly selfish, brutal philosophy. It is based on the belief that human beings are inherently selfish, violent creatures, that life is a Darwinian struggle for survival of the fittest, that only the strong survive and the earth will be ruled by those who fight to win the ceaseless competition that exists in all jungles—including those of urbanized society."4

Read carefully what LaVey says in his Satanic Bible and The Devil's Notebook, and think about all the young people today who are devouring this material:

Satan represents man as just another animal, sometimes better, more often worse than those that walk on all fours, who, because of his "divine spiritual and intellectual development," has become the most vicious animal of all!5
Are we not all predatory animals by instinct? If humans ceased wholly from preying upon each other, could they continue to exist?
Is not "lust and carnal desire" a more truthful term to describe "love" when applied to the continuance of the race? Is not the "love" of the fawning scriptures simply a euphemism for sexual activity, or was the "great teacher" a glorifier of eunuchs? 6
What good are friends if they can't do you any good?
The hunter must hunt. The moment he stops he becomes the hunted.
Strive, reach, and take. Then you shall not be taken.7

The above could really be summarized as "eat or be eaten"; survival of the fittest; nature red in tooth and in claw—evolutionism!

USA Today in March 1993 carried a story entitled "Kids' aggression linked to TV." The article stated, "The more television they watch, the more violent and disobedient elementary-school children become, suggests a large study.... Worse problems show up in those who see two hours or more of TV a day ... MTV is linked to disobedient and argumentative behavior. Reality-based programs are tied to aggression—from bullying others to stealing and throwing temper tantrums."

Many other studies give frightening correlations between television programs and behavior. No wonder LaVey said "We can use TV as a potent propaganda machine. The stage is set for the infusion of true satanic philosophy and potent (emotionally inspiring) music to accompany the inverted crosses and pentagrams."8

Now I am not telling everyone to destroy his or her television sets. This tool can be used very effectively for the Lord.

However, the sad fact is that most parents have not recognized how humanistic and destructive most available programs are.

They haven't recognized that their children are being indoctrinated in what is, in effect, Satanist philosophy that man has a right to do whatever he wants.

In his Satanic Bible, LaVey quotes someone else as saying:

"Times have changed. Religious leaders no longer preach that all our natural actions are sinful. We no longer think sex is dirty--or that taking pride in ourselves is shameful--or that wanting something someone else has is vicious.... If you want proof of this, just look at how liberal the churches have become. Why, they're practicing all the things that you [Satanists] preach." LaVey goes on to say, "Satanists hear these, and similar statements, all the time; and they agree wholeheartedly."

(THE LAST QUOTE IS AN EXAMPLE OF, WHEN SOMEONE CURSES ANOTHER PERSON IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST THE SON OF MARRY, FOR ADVOCATING ABORTION WHILE THIS SOMEONE CURSING PROPAGATES, PROMOTES, PORNOGRAPHY. LOVES IT WHOLE HEARTEDLY AND A FORNICATOR AND AN ADVOCATE OF FORNICATION. YET, FEELS SOME SENSE OF RIGHTOUSNESS, CURSING IN THE NAME OF JESUS. THAT THE KIND OF RELIGIOUS FOLKS OF TODAY'S WORLD.

"The REAL ANTI-CHRIST is he who turns the wine of an original idea into the water of MEDIOCRITY" (Eric Hoffer)

. Filling in the gap................ Did you fill, HYPOCRITES or SATANS MASQUERADING AS HUMAN BEINGS?)

@Ednut1

This was written by a certain Kenneth Ham, very well researched. (Know the Enemy, a Critique of Anto Lavey's books)

Once again, am not asking anyone to go destroy their TV and e.t.c. JUST FIND A WAY OF CURING YOURSELF OF YOUR HYPOCRISY.

Anytime the issue Homosexualism comes up, 'Heterosexuals' who are themselves FORNICATORS and ADULTERERS are quick to come to feast as if not realising it's an extension of their choice of EVIL.

EVIL BEGETS EVIL!

Transcending oneself, a parting from the 'ANIMAL' in MAN/WOMAN, in an ascending and radiating order, heights of NOBILITY becoming truely HUMANE is a great imperative of the essence of being human.

Attainable not by RHETORICS, THEORETICAL VALIDATION but PRACTICE, working within a framework of LEGITIMATE EQUILIBRIUM of ABSOLUTE TRUTH.

"Let it be clear that it is EVIL that is opposed to GOOD and not inversely". (Frithjof Schuon)







Could this be the reason kumuyi said that television would lead to hell and is a sin?

totally clueless you are.

Question: Who will support the old generation when they retire? Pensions. From who since the dependent (old) will soon outnumber the productive (young people) Ummm...
this is the topic dealt with in the articles from DW news of Germany:

https://www.dw.com/en/germanys-aging-population-births-up-deaths-down-in-2016/a-41391651

Germany's aging population: Births up, deaths down in 2016
In 2016, Germany saw 7.4 percent more births and 1.5 percent fewer deaths than in the previous year. But hopes this will translate into a younger population are misplaced.
Germany's birthrate jumped at the same time its death rate fell, official figures for 2016 show, but not by enough to reverse the trend of an aging population.
Preliminary data published by the Federal Statistical Agency have revealed 792,000 babies were born in Germany during 2016 — a 7.4 percent increase on the previous year.
That coincided with 911,000 deaths, representing a 1.5 percent drop from 2015 figures.
Read more - Germany is not shrinking
Statisticians warned that the increase in births and decrease in deaths does not mean that demographic change in the country has stopped.
"The decades of imbalances in the age structure of the population remain," the Federal Statistical Agency said on Wednesday, referring to a death rate that has outweighed annual births since 1972.
Germany's sluggish demographics have prompted fears that its working-age population will not be able to provide adequate social security for its fast-growing generation of pensioners.
With 82 million inhabitants, Germany is the most populous country in the European Union.
But its 2015 fertility rate of 1.5 children per woman is slightly below the EU average of 1.58 — and well below the so-called "replacement rate" of 2.1 required for a stable population.

Though the preliminary data released on Wednesday did not include a breakdown by nationality, researchers suggest the increase in births last year came from both immigrant and German parents. In particular, the increasing numbers of children can be partially explained by the number of women between the ages of 26 and 35 years old.
"Since 2008, the number of women at this age has stabilized and even increased, which could positively influence the number of births for some years more," said the statisticians. "After 2020, however, the number of women at this age is expected to shrink significantly. Then a new birth low could come about."
This Alternative for Germany (AfD) poster received accusations of sexism and xenophobia
Growing concern over low birthrates in Germany has had an impact on political decisions, including Chancellor Angela Merkel's willingness to take in young asylum seekers during the refugee crisis.
Read more - German organization prepares refugees to care for the elderly
More than 1 million newcomers have entered Germany since 2015, when Merkel largely opened the country's borders to refugees fleeing conflict and poverty in the Middle East and parts of Africa. At the end of 2015, the influx of young migrants brought the average age in Germany down for the first time since reunification.
Far-right groups have entered the debate too. During the 2017 parliamentary elections, populist party Alternative for Germany (AfD) put up controversial posters of a pregnant white woman lying prostrate in a field, with the caption: "New Germans? We'll make them ourselves."
The posters were criticized for carrying both xenophobic and sexist overtones.

Germany is not shrinking
Until recently, Germany's population was shrinking because not enough children were being born. Increased immigration and higher birth rates have changed the prognosis. Has a demographic crisis been averted?
For many years, it was a generally accepted fact that the
German population was going to fall. The Federal Statistical Office and the Federal Institute for Population Research pointed to continually low birth rates and not enough immigration as the reasons for this development. If birth rates remained constant at 1.4 children per woman and immigration at 100,000 people per year, by 2060 Germany would no longer be home to around 80 million people - the figure would have fallen to around 68 million.
However, according to revised scenarios the German government has presented in its latest summary of demographic-political developments, this shrinkage apparently isn't happening. The message is that ongoing high immigration, coupled with a recent increase in the birth rate, could keep the country's population stable for another forty years.
Stable population until 2060
Until now, statisticians have assumed the migration balance would be 100,000 to 200,000 per year. However, recent government estimates said this figure was more likely to be 300,000.
The birth rate also shows an upward trend, the government says. It had been dropping for decades, but now appears to have stabilized. The Federal Statistical Office assumes that 1.6 children are currently born for every one woman in Germany. This is also included in the report: "With net migration of 300,000, combined with a birth rate of 1.6 and a more pronounced rise in life expectancy, the population of Germany would remain stable at around today's levels until 2060."
Refugees are one of the reasons Germany's population level is set to remain stable.
The large influx of refugees to Germany over the past two years has thrown long-term prognoses into confusion. In 2015, Germany recorded net migration of more than one million people as a result of the arrival of refugees from Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan. In 2016, that figure was 750,000 people.
By way of comparison, between 1990 and 2008 more people emigrated from Germany each year than moved there. "The migration events of recent years have contributed to the fact that the population as a whole has increased," Germany's Minister of the Interior Thomas de Maiziere (CDU) said at the presentation of the report in Berlin. Statisticians recently announced a new population high: At the end of 2016 there were 82.8 million people living in Germany.
Ageing population: An earthquake for the job market
So does this mean the oft-mentioned demographic crisis has been averted? De Maiziere says not. Despite immigration and rising birth rates, the government's latest prognoses show that the average age of the population will increase significantly. According to the report, this means that with a net migration figure of 300,000, the old-age dependency ratio would be only slightly lower than in the variants with lower immigration. In recent years, average life expectancy in Germany increased by almost 2.6 months a year, to 78.2 years for men and 83.1 years for women.
This increase in life expectancy also means increased challenges for social welfare provision. Pensions and care services for the growing number of old people must also be financed. Immigrants need to be integrated into the job market, and there has to be enough accommodation for both German nationals and new arrivals. "What we want to see is high employment, education, the compatibility of work and family, but also social security in old age," the interior minister explained.
An elderly man works for the machine building industry: will Germans have to work longer?
Professor Enzo Weber, who heads a research department at the Institute for Employment Research (IAB), predicts huge problems, particularly for the labor market. "In the near future, in just a few successive years, 13 million baby boomers will reach statutory retirement age," Weber told DW. That's 13 million new pensioners, who will simultaneously cease to be part of the labor market and the working population.
According to Professor Weber, higher birth rates will not plug the gap. Only immigration can do that. "Even if they were to snap their fingers and raise the birth rate to 2.5 children for every woman, that wouldn't stop the demographic changes that are going to take place on the labor market over the next twenty years." The workforce, he said, was shrinking far more quickly than the overall population because the retirement age continued to hover around 65.
This means that for the workforce in Germany (currently a record 43.8 million people) to remain even remotely stable, it would require 400,000 more people to immigrate every year than emigrate. But Weber notes that the integration of so many immigrants into the labor market and society could also place society under too great a strain, which is why he's assuming a marked drop in employment figures is more likely.
Skilled workers are retiring
This will have disastrous consequences, especially in certain rural areas and some business sectors. "In many places the labor market will dry up, and entire value chains that depend on a specific minimum size could collapse altogether in a fairly short space of time," Weber says. He explains that, in recent years, only exceptional factors have enabled the market to avoid this collapse: factors like the influx of southern and eastern Europeans after the euro crisis, or the arrival of the refugees. "But it won't stay like that forever," he warns.
The German government will be holding a demographics summit in Berlin on the 16th March. It aims to explore how public authorities, society and the economy can meet these challenges. Professor Enzo Weber is calling for flexible work-life models, and a systematic ongoing development of the compatibility of family and career. Ultimately, though, he believes that some dearly held certainties will nonetheless fall victim to developments. The universal retirement age is one of them. For future generations, this may well be just a relic of the past.

its funny how we always think people have a choice in today's world. our tastes, preferences, likes, opinions and desires are always shaped by the media consciously or unconsciously. people have an illusion of choice.
the gay population is just 2% of the total population. yet that 2% must now force its tastes on the 98%. its hillarious.
its the tyranny of the minority whose vote doesnt even count. yet the majority chose a gvt that now pushes the vision of the minority
I totally agree with this

Could this be the reason kumuyi said that television would lead to hell and is a sin?

I intentionally chose not to add the Kumuyi's doctrine of the past which this 'MAN OF GOD' banned his followers, from using TELEVISION calling it the box of EVIL. Why?!

Because it was a commandment based on his own SHEER IGNORANCE of the fact that,

"GOOD AND EVIL GROW UP TOGETHER AND ARE BOUND IN AN EQUILIBRIUM THAT CANNOT BE SUNDERED. THE MOST WE CAN DO IS TRY TO TILT THE EQUILIBRIUM TOWARDS THE GOOD" (Eric Hoffer)

Is the same Kumuyi not a TELE-EVANGELIST today, using the very same TELEVISION he once condemned, to aiding his ministry?!

I really don't want to go deep into the Kumuyi doctrine, it may end up a digression from the subject matter.

I may have to end my answering you with this quote until another opportunity to dwell on the matter. At the moment, I am putting my thoughts together, a response to Misswrite with the hope that it will be ENLIGHTENING and EDUCATIVE, propelled by MUTUAL UNDERSTANDING.

"Mass movement use IRRATIONALITY to shut out the intellect, to turn people into predictable, mindless machines. Both Stalin and Hitler used BLIND FAITH as device for mechanizing souls" (Eric Hoffer, Reflections on the Human Condition)

It's the same IRRATIONALITY that made his followers go throw their TELEVISIONS into the LAGOON, (that is being destructive and narrow minded) when there is an alternative called the SWITCH BOTTON and yet programs that are educative were televised. Infact at that time of his commandment to do away with the TV, the Censorship board in Nigeria was alive. They filter OBSCENITY and access to international programs of SEXUALLY EXPLICIT CONTENT had so many barriers before you can get to see them unlike today.

If you notice, I kept insisting that no one should go destroy their TV despite the FACTS by Anton Lavey because the problem is not the TV but your choice to grow in SELF CONTROL, a path threaded by only by those who strive to transcend themselves as to achieving the goal called TRANQUILITY.

The same Kumuyi condemned the wearing of suits back then but today he poses in suit and tie to match on TV set.

Self control can be achieved when an individual reach a stage of maturity and can then choose the kind of control one wants to place on himself or herself. In this case where children are bombarded with gay stuff where can self control come in

I believe the agenda is to make children see nothing wrong in homosexuality and funny enough it's already happening

I stumbled on an app called amino the app is for young people even children almost every one on that app is bisexual really crazy bro

The choice of the word "WOULD" means a DEFINATE. My response was "COULD" meaning, depending on one's choice of usage.
