    aloha, brother, you are so right in so many ways! 1984, the book... these are some of the things that government controls people these days: sport, entertainment, internet, bad news... to name a few. many are falling for it and don't even knows it.
    i no longer watch the news and have cell phone since 2016, no tv, just this old laptop and a camera, read-read-read and write! select what i watch, just this amazing channel of yours... keep going, take all of us with your traveling.

    Social media is to blame for anxiety and stress.
    Multiple studies have found a strong link between heavy social media and an increased risk for depression, anxiety, loneliness, self-harm, and even suicidal thoughts.

    I'm watching this from my $25 room in Luang Prabang. Just the travel channels on a huge Samsung smart TV.
    No crap war nor latest fear mongering plandamic news.
    I brought my folding bike in a Samsonite suitcase of the train from Vientiane. Just be self sufficient for a couple of weeks. With all other expenses more or less equal I find local transportation is where one can get shafted the most. Cheers !
