Television
or weirdo. We cheer as he makes the world conform to him. Where have we seen this before? The modern alienated anti-hero is the Luciferian JEWat war with God (the Moral Order) nature and society. “Modernism” is Jewish Satanism i.e. Cabalism, a solipsism where they redefine reality according to their perversions and self-interest. Sick is healthy.
We create our own misery by failing to worship God, who is the Truth at the heart of everything.

TV’s Occult Message: Sick is Healthy
Slightly revised “Television Ruined My Life” last from Sept 2022
by Henry Makow PhD
Going back
When I was a child in the 1950’s,television was pretty wholesome. That’s how I got hooked.
As a youth and young man, I was naive and idealistic. I assumed I lived in a benevolent and free society that was attempting to raise everyone to a higher level, materially and spiritually. I looked to mass media and schooling for information, insight and guidance.
After watching “America in Primetime”, (2011) a four-part documentary history of TV, on Netflix, I realize that TV is not entertainment. It is social engineering. It made me dysfunctional and depressed. It has done this to millions of people.
“America in Primetime” consists of interviews with dozens of TV writers and producers, and excerpts from their shows. Although homosexuals and Jews make up perhaps 7% of the US population, they comprise about 70% of TV writers and producers. They hold up a mirror to life. If 70% were Irish Catholics, I’d feel the same way if they were degrading & subverting society.
What Jews and gays have in common is that they are outsiders, many of whom feel unjustly persecuted and think their perversion & dysfunction should the norm.
Most of my fellow Jews don’t know that Judaism is a Luciferian cult, a rebellion against God. Cabalist (Illuminati) Jewish leaders wish to supplant God and redefine reality according to their perversity and self-interest. This is the New World Order.
They deny there is the natural and moral order, the Creator’s instruction manual in the glove compartment (our soul) required reading for health and happiness. They pay lip service to morality but do whatever they want.
The documentary pretends contemporary TV now depicts reality more truthfully. In fact, it has created this sick reality in its own perverted Illuminati image. Television is an indoctrination. It has deliberately undermined what is healthy and inverted normal and abnormal. They actually have a show called “The New Normal.”
Then, TV convinced us that there is something redeeming, ennobling and quintessentially human about being weird, sick and miserable. I’ve been in this “humanistic” space. It’s mostly self-pity.
(Nurse Jackie, played by Edie Falco)
Nurse Jackie, who is addicted to prescription drugs, torn between family and work and infidelity, has her consolations. The heroes of Weeds and Breaking Bad, normal middle-class people who become drug dealers and mobsters, have their moments of redemption. Jack Bauer, the hero of “24” does evil to protect us all from evil but, hey, life is complicated. Tony Soprano, a mobster who lives in a New Jersey suburb, wants the same things as we all do. Dexter is a serial killer who kills serial killers but don’t judge him. When he was five, he saw his mother cut to pieces with a chainsaw! (At least, he wasn’t sexually abused.)
“Audiences are more sophisticated,” the writers tell us, “people want moral ambiguity.” Really? Do we want it or does Satan?
We’ve reached the point where amoral and violent delinquents, misfits and weirdos are the norms. They have made the world conform to them.
The documentary is quite explicit: “Whether they are oddballs, losers, or just plain weird, misfit characters have grown beyond comic stereotypes and are taking center stage with a vengeance, refusing to apologize for who they are.”
Thus in HBO’s “True Blood” the vampires demand “human rights.” They want to be treated like other minorities. One character is incensed when someone judges all vampires based on the behavior of a few. That’s prejudice!
Freaks and Geeks. Six Feet Under. Seinfeld. Glee. Arrested Development. The Office. Self-absorbed misfits, i.e. Jews and gays, are the “new normal.”
HOW WE GOT HERE
In the 1950’s, they had to rebuild, so the Illuminati gave us healthy values. “In 1950’s television, the man of the house was king of his castle. Was it an illusion to begin with?” Father Knows Best. Ozzie and Harriet. Leave it to Beaver. My Three Sons.
Was it an illusion? I don’t think so. Some things are hard-wired. Most men want to rule their own roost. That doesn’t mean we want to lord it over anyone. But every successful organization is a hierarchy and that applies to families as well. Only a monster has two heads. The division of labor made a lot of sense. If you want a man to shoulder responsibility for a family, he has to lead it. It must be his creation.
There was no moral ambiguity in the 1950’s Westerns. Good versus evil. Gunsmoke. The Lone Ranger. Have Gun Will Travel. Men were men. They put their lives on the line to build a just society. Women supported and loved them for it. Then, almost by clockwork, having set up this target, the Illuminati got to work destroying it. Birth control allowed women to be sexually independent. Why not be financially independent too?
A series of shows made women feel that being wives and mothers was “oppressive” i.e. healthy is sick. Homemaker and housewife became dirty words while fighting traffic every day to do some tedious work was invested with fairy dust.
America in Primetime: “Far removed from the model housewife of yesterday, women today on TV care less about pleasing others, and more about being true to themselves.”
Why sacrifice for love when you can be selfish? Sounds like Satan again doesn’t it? Love is sacrifice. As if devotion to husband and family wasn’t “being true to themselves?” As if career success is the path to fulfillment for most women.
The Mary Tyler Moore was the prototype of the “independent woman.” When her mother asks her father, “Did you take your pill?” Mary thinks she is talking to her.
“Yes,” both father and daughter reply. Thus, the show taught young women to go on the pill and have extramarital sex.
(Darren Starr, with Sarah Jessica Parker)
Women modelled themselves on Mary Tyler Moore, just like they imitated Sex in the City, 20 years later.
Lauren Hutton said this show depicted “women acting like gay men;” not surprising given its gay Jewish creator, Darren Starr.
In the 80’s, men started being portrayed as wimps. Someone wrote Thirty Something should be called “Whine and neuroses.” The only exception to this trend was The Bill Cosby Show where the father was the head of the family. Turns out he was a deviant too.
Like men, women are also hardwired — to want to belong to one man who returns their devotion. Most women want to put motherhood before career. Yet the freaks that control popular culture mess them up by telling them their natural biological instincts are wrong. Instead of saving themselves for their husband, they are “empowering themselves” by getting drunk and hooking up with strangers.
CONCLUSION
TV and movies initiate us into the satanic cult which is modern society. A satanic cult controls and exploits its members by making them sick. Because television and movies were my reference point, I was dysfunctional until almost 50. I was obsessed with relationships and sex as a panacea. I didn’t know how to be a man. I idealized women and called it love. There were no models of true masculinity. When dysfunctional sick people are your role models, you become dysfunctional. Arrested development. Immaturity. Three failed marriages. Confusion. Periods of depression. (I do take responsibility for being so trusting and gullible.)
Why are there so few positive role models on TV? Why so few examples of healthy, happy life?
My rehabilitation started when I started to question the messages I was getting and listened to my own instincts instead.
Liberals like to think the social trends of the last 50 years represent spontaneous social change. Rather, we were being degraded and inducted into a satanic cult. The Illuminati bankers are waging a diabolical war on us, and we don’t even know it.

First Comment by Eliezer
Television Not In Our Home (for 12 years)
Whereas a house is empty space, a home is sacred space. And we have through neglect, permitted the sacred to devolve into the mundane, even the profane. How many today for instance, sanctify or bless their meals? Wherein is the sanctity of modern life?
Too often we humans in the “developed world” opt to “live life” vicariously through a kaleidoscope of manufactured placebo experiences. “Central casting” is rife with occultic implications. The multiplier effect of modern technology has handed to a few the power to cast wider spells, gifting them with an ability to influence society disproportionate to their numbers — a portal into every home. The primary characteristic of tell-a-vision is its convenience. We’re caught up in a “tyranny of convenience” — immersed in a controlled narrative that encourages voyeurism.
Jerry Mander writes inFour Reasons For The Elimination Of Television, “the medium (tell-a-vision) is NON REFORMABLE — It’s problems are in the technology itself & are so dangerous to personal health & sanity — to the environment and to the democratic process, that TV ought to be eliminated for ever.” Would it be that those who conspire to “tell-you-THEIR-vision,” those whom we wouldn’t invite home for dinner, should then be granted a vicarious violation of our homes & sacred space? And because of its capacity for mass engineering of perspective, might not the “life” one “lives” thru TV not be our own?

Comments for “Makow- TV Programmed Us to Be Sick & Love It”
James c said (September 3, 2022):
Our sick society in a nutshell: “You’re not a real man unless you’re financially successful; and you’re not a real woman unless you’re eternally young and voluptuous.” Since financial success is increasingly difficult to achieve and maintain, and since eternal youth and voluptuousness are also impossible, we are led to believe that there are no real men and women any longer. IMO, it’s all so much satanic b.s. Wealth and beauty are satanic standards of both manhood AND womanhood. The greatest man who ever lived was nothing to look at and he was often homeless. Television has made us vain, sick and empty.
Connie said (November 16, 2021):
Henry,
The first comment should have mentioned Jerry Mander’s Four Reasons For The
Elimination Of Television was published in 1978 – over 40 years ago – and earlier still,
Marshall McLuhan claimed “the medium is the message” in Understanding Media (1964).. Isn’t it
amazing nobody was paying attention? I remember my mother being mesmerized watching TV in
the daytime, and her biggest nemesis was The Phil Donahue Show, the place many housewives
first learned what a homosexual was.
Paul said (July 30, 2019):
I saw only one clip of Nurse Jackie and I was sick to my stomach. She’s in the operating room after an operation and the stressed-out doctor while exiting suddenly stops in front of her and massages her breasts for a few seconds and then exits wringing his hands over his out-of-control behavior. Nurse Jackie, though, takes like a man and challenges herself through self-talk to accept it as part of life, as a way to help the doctor and to understand the doctor and to not judge.
I couldn’t believe it and Edie Falco should be thoroughly ashamed of herself for making money doing such sick things. The message was clear to all women that they should challenge themselves to accept worse and worse degrees of degradation.
A real-life example of this was a female boss who challenged herself to set aside all judgments and start accepting the North Korean leader no matter how many crimes he committed. And she would applaud any celebrity who “was brave enough” to visit the guy.
Peter C said (July 8, 2018):
I have on many occasions tried to explain to people how TV and the movies have been used to normalize homosexuality within our society. I’ll give an example of a TV show with a gay character or theme (Three’s Company or Bosom Buddies for instance) and people will reply that “oh no, those shows weren’t gay-positive they were making fun of gays”.
What these people don’t understand is that prior to about 1980 homosexuality was something that was not mentioned, not celebrated, not part of polite society, and in general not something that most people even had any knowledge of.
It was ‘the love that dare not speak its name’, and it should have remained that way. But such shows were intended to bring the issue into the forefront of consciousnesses and portray it in a positive light.
Pop culture has been pushing only filth ever since and has been used towards making acceptable many other evils:
Single motherhood (Alice)
Divorce (Kate & Allie)
Rape & murder (Crime shows and hip-hop music)
Emasculation of men (Laverne & Shirley)
Multiculturalism (Little Mosque on the Prairie)
And of course the removal of God and spirituality from everyone’s lives.
JG said (July 8, 2018):
You have to be very selective with what you watch on the major networks. They are mostly garbage including the liberal biased national news that omits progressive and positive news.
There are good independent religious networks that give bible study and positive news that are profitable.
There are good things and good people out there but you won’t find them on sitcoms or in movie theatres where nothing is real.
Geno said (March 9, 2016):
Whenever I am around a TV at a motel or a friend’s home. The blatant propaganda and programming jumps out at me but to the other’s in the room they soak it up like zombie sponges. In my boredom of the internet I will watch Hulu and Netflix and see much of the same programming, woven into all the storylines, and because I am so offended by it, I will find a show that tends to do it less, as opposed to those that are designed for the purpose. Watch the Good Wife if you want sophisticated propaganda like Gloria Steinem and Vallerie Jarret making guest appearances. Oy vey.
And one note to you Henry I always felt your “save the males” and “exposing feminism” shot yourself and those of us who share your articles in the foot, because people are intellectually lazy and look for a shortcut soundbite, and those few words scare most people off–as programmed– before they allow the essays a chance to be read and contemplated. I wish you would get rid of all that and find a more all encompassing soundbite to lure in, just as our enemies do. Something like, HenryMakow.com Examining brainwashing and its methodology. This allows for the mildly curious to actually read a bit further. Anyway, you have come a long way from your advice column to parents at age 12 huh? I watched you on What’s My line. Can you tell us about that experience?
And you should also do an article on Hulu’s “FREE” programming… 90% has peadophile themes, incest, and other deviancy woven in. Quite creepy. Watch two David Duchovney movies, one where his wife’s soul switches bodies with his daughter and another about a marketing family called the Jones… Hard to miss the desensitization. Apparently having sex with our children is something elite Hollywood wants us to do.
RPM said (March 9, 2016):
Just read your latest piece on television. I’m a huge “Have Gun Will Travel Fan.” Ironically, the show’s star, Richard Boone was Jewish (mother) and later in life did films for Israel and the Zionist effort (IDF). He was also busted, with Peter Lawford hanging out at a Gay bar in Australia, back when those sorts of things were illegal.
Fifties TV needed traction. It was a new medium and they had to have as many eyeballs watching those shows as possible. There were TV sets that needed to be sold, ads that needed to be run, more and more products peddled to a post-war America. The programming was as predictably mainstream as possible.
Once the box was in almost every home, hitting critical mass, the “programming” changed. Shows like “Green Acres,” “Petticoat Junction” and the “Beverly Hillbillies” were quickly displaced by “Bridget Loves Bernie,” “Laugh In,” “Julia,” and “The Flip Wilson Show.” This is right around the time that Bud Yorkin and Norman Lear formed “Tandem Productions” and re-wrote the face of TV with “All In The Family” and it’s myriad of spinoffs. Coming from the other direction was James Brooks, MTM Productions and Mary Tyler Moore and it’s various spinoffs. Between Brooks, Yorkin and Lear, those three men changed the medium and the message of TV forever.

henry, i was out on my early morning walk and started thinking on this very subject. how people give over so easily to the power of ‘suggestion’. where does it come from so much; TV! was it 1948 when tv was made available to the general public? it has been downhill since. it has been the wholesome shows that got us hooked then came more of the downhill things. i can remember we only watched tv when there was totally nothing else to do. i just turned 71 and remember quite a bit [even the show you were on]. tv is total witchcraft. it got us used to sitting and becoming sedentary,fat and lazy. there is no doubt about the mind control and ungodliness.
