Why are intelligent people so often bullied?

Why do people watch mentally unbalanced people being bullied and humiliated on TV?

• Where has talent gone? Why has it been pimped out to the Corporate bloodsucker's now controlling entertainment on our Lie Boxes in our living rooms? Are human beings still in the Colosseum in the Roman times? Are they at heart mean spirited and why not return to the days when people were happy watching people being hacked to death or torn apart by lions and bears. The cult of celebrity is a cancer of our society. The delusion," to be like totally totally famous,"on a planet of pumped up egos running around screaming," LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME!" We see this with reality TV shows and crap like the Jerry Springer show and the Jeremy Kyle show here in the UK. We see people who don't represent real people shoving their talentless rubbish in our faces and that's the celebrity panelists. Celine Dion has a lot to answer for! The crowds turn up awaiting their fame of 15 minutes as they pathetically seek adulation and recognition for their notoriety at being on TV. It's all a sham to keep people stupefied watching crap whilst it makes millions for the corporate capitalists and celeb dead heads at the expense of the downtrodden and dumb fame seekers for the entertainment of the unbalanced living on bread and circuses.

• Answer:

  Problem is, most kids are 'playing their life' these days, as if they're on TV, so it's much more wide-spread than just TV, it's become society. Basically you're watching the decent into the next Dark-Ages, the 90s were a pinnacle in self-fulfillment, and awareness(the hippies finally won), and what do people do, when there's a lot of awareness, people lean back. It's a simple case of forgetting to teach the next generation to care, to be aware, to work on their skills, instead of sell-out to fame. Decadence got the better of the World, it's why ignorance, and hate are on an explosive rise(in the US, the GOP's are preaching this 19th Century Fire & Brimstone Religion, in Europe, parties are literally copying Hitler's play-book(blame the Left, and a World-Religion for everything, and start by beating up on the Polish) in the Netherlands PVV, in France Sarkozy, they're literally using Hitler's play-book. This was unacceptable in the 90s, and people trying this, where considered extremist cooks, but now they're getting mainstream spot-light. And in fighting extremism, we became extremist. It's very sad, and hopefully this can get 'educated out', because if it isn't stopped, this is the run-up to World War 3, and this time, everybody has Atomic Bombs.
