Information overload is a way of blocking the development of consciousness
The stream of endless information that is bombarding a person today from all sides and the inability to filter it within reasonable limits slowly degrades a person. I think that few people realise the seriousness of the issue.
In theory technological progress, a variety of information and its availability should contribute to the mental development of a person. People believe that modern information achievements and technologies relieve them from many troubles and significantly save time and effort.
But what is really happening?
Modern scientists have begun to seriously pay attention to the downsides of technological progress. Increasingly research demonstrates that mental debilities and digital dementia that this information overload can produce. The definitions that you have read here are new diagnostic terms that are used today in the clinical diagnosis of certain conditions in people.
You have probably noticed how people have become dependent on information of any kind: they do not part with smartphones and tablets even during dates and social or business meetings. A huge array of information becomes an ordinary product of human consumption and turns into a real addiction.
Many people do not know that brain functions such as information consumption and thinking are adversaries.
Dependence simply on constant consumption of information leads a person to begin to develop symptoms such as a lazy brain that performs monotonous actions, loses the ability to analyse and think productively. The constant consumption of information leads to difficulties in concentration, communication, decision-making and an adequate perception of real life.
Brain studies by scientists show that it takes 24 minutes to completely switch our brain from the state of "I consume information" to the state of "I think" (assuming that the consumption has ended).
Today we can see that technological progress has in a very large number of people has caused laziness of the mind, which leads a person into a primitive perception of information. If earlier a person could read and analyse something voluminous, then in a state of endless consumption of information this ability disappears.
There is a real danger or, as scientists say, an epidemic of the 21st century. It is in fact a sort of blockage in the development of consciousness.
It turns out that you also need to rest from information, no matter what kind of information this is but if it continies “non stop”, this creates brain fatigue and then the impossibility of deep understanding and a long thought process.
A so-called clip thinking is being created in the form of pictures and short videos. This is what scientists are talking about today, who monitor the development of children and adolescents. A modern person loses the ability to read for a long time, which we see today with the bloggers for example. If the article is long, it becomes less and less readable; the shorter it is the more readers pay attention to it.
A modern person does not have the culture of consumption of information that the Internet gives us. This is sadly not being taught because this issue is not being considered.
For example, having a nutrition culture that we are taught, we do not overeat until we pass out, after feeling full. But with information it is more difficult, we will not feel full anyway. There is no feeling that our brain has “overeaten”.
How we get there is another matter. This only becomes clear when there is a clear general energy depletion.
But our brain is a very powerful computer. More powerful than any existing supercomputer. And in order for a person to start functioning on the above described algorithm for consuming information, one must use such a routine for more than one year. The result of thoughtless consumption of information is dullness, and then it becomes possible to manipulate such consciousness more easily. Modern technologies relieve us from many troubles and significantly save us time and effort, while at the same time depriving a person of the opportunity to think deeply about this or that issue. And when people think little it is easier to manipulate and control them. Previously the speed of manipulation was much slower than now. People read books, listened to the radio and then television came along. But this still did not have such an effect on the overload of the brain and putting it into a continuous state of consumption. And now we have the Internet. Now we can easily find the information we need on the Internet, watch our favorite movies, order food, buy tickets for anything from shows to trips, etc. Moving further and further technological progress makes a person dependent on Internet technologies.
A constant stream of uncontrollably consumed information that is not subjected to analysis leads a person to being coded, and in the future to zombification of his consciousness. But this does not happen immediately. The process of influencing the human brain is carried out in stages through the manipulation of information. This practice of manipulating consciousness is carried out precisely with the help of high Internet technologies. Manipulators use such method as repetition. The same information repeated in different interpretations, but having one idea, is best perceived by a person.
People have long begun to be talked to through the media and Internet portals, as if they are children under 12 years old. This was done intentionally by some societal controlling groups, because a person up to that age has not developed critical thinking. As long as the human system of introspection perceives the ethics of this information, its perception is not subject to strict analysis. It is always easier to insert distorted information into the minds of children than into the minds of an adult.
The management of people through the media that we see today is the result of non-critical thinking, which before had been planted for many years through the continuous consumption of information, introducing a person into the habit of depending upon smartphones, tablets and the “non-stop” Internet from an early age.
This line of thought could go on and on, but first let's summarise the above. A person needs to learn not only to filter information, but above all to understand the need for its controlled consumption. You need to learn how to rest from information in the same way as from physical work, otherwise the human brain gradually unlearns how to critically perceive the received diverse information. This happens because of all the garbage that the brain receives from the Internet every day, you don’t have time to consider this information, pause and think. By functioning like this day after day, a person develops a certain algorithm of thinking, which brain researchers call clip thinking, incompatible with long concentration and conscious attention.
Can this be changed? Yes, of course it can but it requires certain knowledge and effort. Departure from a habit is always fraught with difficulties. We can teach this however it takes more than one month of work with the restructuring of human consciousness to a new way of functioning. The result is a reasonable person, not a robot.
How the manipulation of human consciousness takes place and how to avoid the zombification of the mind, will be discussed in out next publication
