Special Big Brother

Subjects like sex, the infidelity, the loss, and the personal tragedy has been used historically with entertainment aims. One lorazepam 1 mg the last acquisitions of this tendency is the televising show Big Brother or Pig Brother (Brother Pig) as to some they have described it critics. In Big Brother we did not face more the fiction. On the side effects of lorazepam drug it is the pure reality - there are lorazepam 1 mg actors, but no real people and lives. Somehow it would be possible to be said that we have returned to the Coliseo, lorazepam 1 mg people were devoured alive by from lorazepam 1 mg for the entertainment of the Romans. It had the hope of which the human beings more were civilized now, but, unfortunately, history is repeated. The Coliseo of the 21st century, the old lorazepam 1 mg amphitheatre has been transformed into the screen of the TV where the hearings pay to penetrate in the life of others, again with diversion aims.

Now, is due to allow the television transmitters the transmission of Big Brother? In a free and democratic society, certainly one is due to allow. I know that people will see Big Brother and that probably reached lorazepam 1 mg high levels, which, by all means, is lorazepam 1 mg Gilded one for any advertiser. Nevertheless, like in the spectacle of the Coliseo, a series of problematic exists, not of deficiency of moral but of lack of ethics.

Of the same form in which the moral of old Rome allowed that people were the food of from Leon one, the moral of our developed society allows to the use of the personal life side effects of lorazepam drug the real feelings of human beings like entertainment. When distinguishing the prevailing moral like the system of values and norms in a society; and the ethics like the relations between human beings in a community, is much more interesting, in my opinion, analyzing Big Brother from an ethical perspective than more moral. lorazepam 1 mg believe that we are facing what a battle by an ethical civilization could be denominated .

Spectacles in the category of Big Brother side effects of lorazepam drug generated reactions with dyes morals on a large scale, but few have brought about the fundamentalist discussion, to call it somehow, in the form that Big has done it to Brother. I lorazepam without a prescription say that, after to have lorazepam without a prescription some episodes of the program in other countries (the United Kingdom and Norway), it boring encounter and of evil pleasure. Nevertheless, never its transmission would deliver the minimum attack by detenr or to censure it. I lorazepam 1 mg that he is counter-productive, simply is lorazepam 1 mg worth the pain the effort. Then they will be lorazepam 1 mg because to waste the time writing about Big Brother? Permítanme to try to explain it.

I believe that the problem with Big Brother is not the program in itself and what this one can or can generate. I consider that this program is rather a symptom of the perverted civilization in which we lived. Therefore, the people who supposedly are fighting in favor of the moral and the communal property, imposing its lorazepam 1 mg of view on the matter; they are in fact acting against the freedom of expression of the television transmitters, without to have given account that the battle to protect its values has been lost long lorazepam without a prescription back.

In addition, those that argue that lorazepam 1 mg Brother damages lorazepam 1 mg people, are exposing, in lorazepam 1 mg opinion, an old aristocratic point of view on the people, in who there is no confidence in the common lorazepam 1 mg of the same. These groups, that can lorazepam 1 mg be located in the right current, have defended, traditionally the value of the freedom of expression and limited the governmental interference in lorazepam 1 mg public. Now, suddenly, they become in the Lenin of the 21st century, arguing that people too stupid and are little educated lorazepam 1 mg think by itself. Therefore it is this illuminated elite, that lorazepam 1 mg the responsibility lorazepam 1 mg think by the thickness of the society it protects in such a way that it of the evil (Big Brother) will destroy that it. It is not necessary to emphasize that this project never has been indeed successful throughout history, but in spite of this, the aristocrats continue side effects of lorazepam drug lorazepam without a prescription fight. Personally, I suspect that there is a subject between lines that he has more to do with the control of the people, who with the preoccupation of reaching the communal property.

On the lorazepam 1 mg hand, the problem is not either in the avarice lorazepam without a prescription the degenerate producer and television stations certain (the modern directors of the circus), that think that a high level of rating is even better than sex; but in the fact that we are side effects of lorazepam drug a population that, apparently, one is going away to chain to the screen to see a program that, metaphorically, records three hours of program on the sand of Sahara, trying lorazepam without a prescription original, intelligent and therefore interesting.

Beyond this, lorazepam 1 mg problem is not that people exist wanting lorazepam 1 mg do money being based on the misery of others. That is to say, hardly, something new lorazepam without a prescription history; but the humanity has produced a society where the general population (including the class with high levels of lorazepam 1 mg accepts east type of programs as an entertainment form. The serious thing of all this is that in lorazepam without a prescription society a market for this type of spectacles exists. Just as with the Roman circus, this situation eloquently speaks on the values and the moral to lorazepam without a prescription of a society. From this perspective, the fight against Big Brother is a negation of the present reality where the classic moral no longer exists. I believe that the lorazepam 1 mg is not in controlling what it is possible or not to be seen in TV, but in humanizing people; for example, helping us to an a others to preserve that humanity and to reinforce the critical and lorazepam 1 mg spirit of the human beings of such form who we pruned to make ethical decisions. I trust that if we obtained the previous thing and we transmitted it to the future generations, probably we will side effects of lorazepam drug of channel when they transmit Big Brother, not necessarily lorazepam 1 mg the program is a morally dangerous scandal or, but simply because one is bad television, considered from a human point of view.

The operation of other lorazepam 1 mg beings, has been always, and continues being, defended with lorazepam 1 mg aid of the prevailing moral in the society. The slavery and the lorazepam 1 mg that we pay thousand times more to some human beings who to others to do its work, is two very simple examples of this. We live in a situation in that there are lost, lorazepam without a prescription humanity, our values civil and ethical, being therefore able to put price to him to the human beings, of the lorazepam 1 mg form in which the Romans did.

Sight this way, I consider more that Big Brother is a symptom of, than a threat for, our lorazepam without a prescription society. We never reached the lorazepam without a prescription humanly speaking; since we never evolved beyond the syndrome of the Coliseo. We finish like animal, more specifically like Brother Pigs. A pig pays to observe another pig to eat, to go bathroom, to awake, to have sex and to discuss lorazepam without a prescription other pigs. Or seen from another perspective, the society has become an experimental laboratory, where some of us we played the role of doctors, while others play the role of conejillos of Indians.

I consider that Big Brother is only one shows of the contempt by the human dignity that the contemporary world is suffering. The challenge is in giving account us that we are on the verge of losing the battle to reach a civilization where the human beings are perceived and tried like such and not as pigs.
