In our society, people are constantly trying to
convince you of something. Whether it’s improving your life, buying goods,
changing your views, helping out a specific community, something is always
trying to get you to see it their way. The mass media is all around us, in our
magazines, books, music, movies, art, news, shows, there’s always an agenda underneath.
Personally, I don’t feel like I am as suckered into mass media anymore. The
younger population is easily convinced because a lack of education and
understanding on most subjects. However, with time that can easily change
unless they’ve already imbedded the same views into their socialization. What
really persuade me are my peers. I find that those who I am close with deeply
persuade me. I also find that being on the line of poverty, you are more aware
of the choices you make. You become careful to listen to the facts and find holes
in stories. Most of all, it honestly depends on how well those messages relate
to your morals.
