What’s your verdicts on this ?

I was listening to this Orthodox priest on TikTok . He’s a good priest .
He says that listening to music and watching movies are evil .
What do you think ?
Imagine telling someone give up music that’s dedicated all there lives to it and to tell them stop listening to music .
You could drive them into the river by saying that . He also thinks Hollywood is evil and that both music and movies if your listening to or watching that it’s a hypnosis to the sub conscious mind and that you have no control over your mind if you watch or listen to music or movies .
Music and movies is all I have left .
I gave up a lot of things in my life and then when I hear this it’s to deep altoghter .
What’s your view on this

I love Tik Tok but it’s a propaganda tool if ever I’ve seen one. I would take anything I see on there with a grain of salt.

@CrystalSkull Why would someone "love" TikTok?

@sascha There’s all sorts of interesting and funny things on there and it’s addictive. It’s more a distraction than anything else, however falling down it’s rabbit hole is easy so it pays to be aware.

@CrystalSkull Funny? What's funny?

I tried it several years ago, and thought it was very strange.

@sascha perhaps its algorithm has improved. You can find anything under the sun on there, science, art, philosophical ideas, news, humour, politics, food you name it. What I like is the footage everyday citizens from my own country post with regards to weather and traffic for example. The more you like a certain topic the more those topics will appear in your feed. It’s highly addictive so don’t bother…🙄😊 but yeah if you’re of a certain mindset in any spectrum it’s easy to get shit on your algorithm constantly. I wouldn’t use it as a reliable source.
