Further Decline of Society

By now most everyone has seen or heard about the recent Charlie Sheen interviews. TMZ & ABC are buzzing about it, and all the other usual media outlets are going to milk as much out of it as possible.

Some may see Charlie as having a problem, some may see him as a degenerate, and others a hero. I see him as a symptom.

Before I was born, rock & roll was controversial, but by the time I was a child, it you had to add sex & drugs to make rock & roll seem wild. During the 80's drugs went from the alley way to wall street. The MTV generation put bikini clad models in rock videos, and those rock stars were expected to be sleeping with them as well as the rest of the groupies in the same town. The 90's rolled around and pornography became mainstream, the internet and hotel sex channels made it freely accessible. During the last 10 years, MTV strayed away from music to feature teen drama's like 16 and pregnant, and skin. Glorifying what once was considered vice has become Hollywood's cash cow. You get the media to tell everyone how edgy it is to boost ratings. What was once wrong is now right, and what was right, is now wrong.

I'm not a prude, I don't deny that vice exists, or that it always has existed, what I oppose it the glorification of it.

Charlie Sheen is a symptom, his real life, however shocking he sees as normal. Doing drugs and porn stars he feels is now an admirable goal, a reward of his success that he feels those who look down upon are simply jealous.

Hollywood is simply turning society upside-down, what was once bad is now good, and what was considered virtue is now vilified. Just look to the last few years at what were considered normal are now endangered or nearly extinct. Virginity, sobriety, and for those few hold out of what we consider normality, all under attack.

When you start to see symptoms of a disease, you can find out what you suffer from, and look for a cure, simply treat the symptoms, or you can ignore it and continue on the decline.

Fight the spread of this disease, wash your hands of the mainstream media who propagate this virus and contribute to the further decline of our society.
