Actually, I understand you perfectly. One man's food is another man's poison. In the name of entertainment, people get embarrassed and killed. In the name of entertainment too, people are relieved of stress, anger, rage etc. That's why we have advantages and disadvantages. Entertainment actually depends on who and where you choose to spend. You can actually have entertaining lives as an introvert like I was.
I was outrightly an introvert but through entertainment, I changed my lifestyle to becoming more extroverted which has helped me to become a social individual. Can I ask? What cracks you up?

Uovoting your comment instead of a post or do both @bossj23?
👍
I don't do both. Didn't have an active post that wasn't curated.
I think it's a good thing to upvote comments they are as valuable as posts
Exactly. You made my day with the black hole post. I see reasons why you rather choose to make a post instead. People have taste for things. I respect your view. But please can I just get an answer to my question?
Entertainment is like everything else. Where some find their relieve others have stress or fall into rage due to how they have been raised, always seeing the downside. I noticed people changed. We always were an open minded country with joking people, whistling, singing and now we deal with many who love to have the profits but don't care about our culture, humour, entertainment. Their long toes are hard to avoid and I doubt if always seeing yourself as the pityful one helps to fight the struggles of life.
Entertainment is indeed a great help to loosen up. Good to hear it worked for you. It took some time for my son to understand irony and sarcasm (it's hard if words are taken literally like is the case with those with a high IQ, thinkers and autism) but he learned it (no option left I guess with our family) but I do notice a huge difference between cultures if it comes to 'funny'.
People like Rowan Atkinson and some Dutch comedians (good with words/word play) and the comedian Urbanus in his younger days (Belgium) have more than my interest. Artists with words just like some musicians.
Rowan Atkinsons once said (c19 period) that we should fight to keep black humour alive and I agree. It's important to have a good laugh more than once about one's own or others misery, situations, rediculous acts without being punished and being labelled as a therorist.
Thanks for the talk!
