The Uncanny...

from Wikipedia
In aesthetics, the uncanny valley is the hypothesis that human replicas that appear almost, but not exactly, like real human beings elicit feelings of eeriness and revulsion among some observers. Valley denotes a dip in the human observer's affinity for the replica, a relation that otherwise increases with the replica's human likeness. Examples can be found in robotics, 3D computer animations, and life-like dolls among others.

FUCK the God-damned media! I've abandoned it. A source of intellectual and spiritual cancer fermenting hatred, fear, resentment, discontent, confusion and destructive impulses.

In short a SATANIC enterprise.

It's a narrative no longer supportive of the average citizens continued existence.
