WE COULD DO BETTER...UNLESS WE DECIDED TO

Years ago, I liked to read the blogs of some domestic media practitioners. At that time, it was difficult for me to understand why so many American film and television literary works featured journalists as the protagonists, and each of them seemed to be the embodiment of all the good qualities of human beings. On the other hand, Chinese journalists or the media would only play the headline party and fabricate an eye-catching society. News and gossip scandals, or ripping off red envelopes everywhere, are more of a bark for the money owner and the government. If only a minority or even a majority of people do this, I can barely accept it. But the truth is, everyone! Not a single exception! Anyone with a slightly normal intelligence can easily tell that the words and images that fill our lives are full of naked lies and silent secrets! No one believed all of this, but no one made any voices of dissatisfaction. The speaker pretends to be stating the truth, and the listener pretends to believe it!
Is this really a "magical land" and a "magical nation"? I don't understand. So I shop around and look around, and even compare how the same news is reported in different media. As soon as I have nothing to do, I can’t help but click on various news portals. If I feel that there is a problem with the news, I go to various forums to see if there are people who question or break the news, and go over the wall to see what is said overseas. I feel like I'm turning into a hunting dog, I can't help sniffing everything, but everything smells so suspicious! That's when I started to read blogs by senior media professionals, because sometimes they would give a little bit of an inside story on their own. But that's all! I understand why they do that but never sympathize with them! Then I realized that the whole Chinese media is a sad joke. Whether it's political news, financial news, gossip news, social news, or whatever, it's all rubbish! Since then, I haven't watched much of the news (except for tech news), and spent my spare waiting time just reading the headlines on the front page on my phone.
Luo Li babbled for a long time, just because after so many years, I thought I had passed that idealistic stage, and reality has taught me how to wear armor and helmet to defend myself, but the first episode hit a certain weakness in my heart. The place. I know that American journalists in reality are definitely not so perfect. Just watch the documentary "Invisible War", but we can at least understand one thing from it. No matter how bad the reality is, it does not prevent us from still Have good expectations for the future, and do something about it, even if it's just a little bit within your ability!

We can do better ... unless we decided to!

Supplementary note:
I just started watching the first episode, and all kinds of feelings were twisting and twisting in my mind. The human mind is truly a mystical thing!
Anyway, what I'm actually trying to say is that people know that thoughts determine actions, but many people may not know that actions actually determine thoughts! We may just be timid and afraid to do what we should do or greedy to do what we shouldn't do, but when you do it over and over again, your thinking will be gradually modified and solidified by your behavior, and you will never Will realize how this all happened!
