Entertainment influences culture more than news ever will.

From TikTok to Netflix, we're shaped more by what entertains us than by what informs us.

Here’s why that matters more than ever 🧵

> We think of entertainment as “just fun.”

But what we watch, dance to, or laugh at is programming our values, identity, and worldview—often more than school or traditional media ever did.

> 📺 People quote shows more than books

🎶 Lyrics shape mindsets

💃 TikTok trends define self-expression

We don’t just consume entertainment—we copy it, share it, become it.

> The line between education, politics, and entertainment is gone.

Creators now teach.

Musicians influence elections.

Podcasts replace classrooms.

Welcome to the age of contentainment.

> Remember Black Panther?

It wasn’t just a movie—it redefined African pride and global imagination.

Or how Afrobeats exported more of Nigeria’s image than any tourism ad ever could.

> The dangerous part?

Entertainment bypasses logic and hits emotion.

You’ll laugh… then believe.

Cry… then shift your values.

It’s subtle. It’s powerful.

> If you're a creator, you're not “just entertaining.”

You’re shaping behavior, shifting values, and building culture.

That’s real power. Use it with intention.

> Entertainment isn’t just an escape.

It’s a teacher. A mirror. A movement.

Let’s not waste the microphone.
