A form of lowest common denominator entertainment designed to appeal to the masses and refrain people from thinking.
examples of tittytainment include alcohol, drugs, sex, TV soap operas and high caloric food, etc, which are also the most commonly
accepted forms of entertainment.

The concept of Tittytainment was introduced in The Global Trap by Hans-Peter Martin, an Austrian journalist and former politician.

The frustrated population of the world could be kept happy with a mixture of numbing entertainment and adequate food. …
The world model of the future follows the formula 20 to 80. The one-fifth society is brewing in which the excluded will be
immobilized with “tittytainment” — The Global Trap

1995 World Forum Conference held at Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco. The conference invited many world leaders in politics and
business, including former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev, former U.S. President George W. Bush, former British Prime Minister Margaret Sachet, and Media mogul Ted Turner.

The discussions were around global trends, the emerging economies, and how to form new civil structures in societies among chaos. According to Mr. Martin, who was present with his fellow journalists, the meeting reduced the future to a number and a term: “20/80”
and “Tittytainment”.

The leaders concluded that a 80/20 social structure is inevitable, because technology and productivity would improve as global trade opens up, hence intensifying global competitions. As a result, the marginalized 80% would face “great problems”.

Naturally, the next question followed — how to avoid the conflicts between different social class?

It was widely believed that Zbigniew Brzezinsk, the former principal foreign policy advisor to Jimmy Carter, proposed a solution — deploying tittytainment to satisfy the frustrated 80 percent.

By frequently stimulating frustrated people with low-cost entertainment, they will stop crying about their positions in the society —
exactly the same effect of putting a pacifier to a baby’s mouth.

more governments are loosening the constraints on drugs consumption since 2010, including Canada and several U.S. states. Cannabis
is now a multi-billion industry with publicly traded companies, having legitimate reasons to expand even further. More countries have removed restriction on Pornography, and many of them does not treat child pornography as criminal.

Pornhub, one of the biggest pornographic sites, was offering free membership during quarantine, and saw the biggest spike in views. German sex toy brand Womanizer said its sales shot up 50% above forecast.

But drug, sex and alcohol is just a tip of iceberg. There is something more damaging around our life.

We are buried in a universe of low-cost entertainment that could mute our critical thinking.

Retailers use mass-marketing tactics to tout products, splattering waves of materialism, instead of humanity values.

Social media companies are hiring “influencers” to share their products to the audience who can only see the price tags but not value.

Entertainment industry is producing exaggerating content that make the gullible ones more gullible, losing the ability to question or fact check. One example is the reality tv-shows (Mr. Trump should thank the Apprentice).

Facebook is dominating the news media, allowing false information without taking legal responsibilities. People are venting through the internet, defamation, rumors, violence, to spread their emotion but not facts, because this is a more instant method of being heard.

Phone manufactures, in alliance with social media and software developers, are constantly feeding people with information passively.

Video streaming companies provide the content they wish people to see, and the built-in auto-play next episode invents a new fashion
of binge-watching, lying on the bed all day nothing in the head.


Here’s the 2019 google top searches in U.S. (Up) and Canada (Down).
Entertainment news occupy the most searches in both U.S. and Canada. Majority Internet users’ interests are on
entertainment topics,

not science, literature, or most fundamental questions that keep humanity evolving — what, why, and how.
