“…The survey found that 94% of respondents expressed their belief that the documentary had a positive impact, underscoring the importance and potential of media, especially mainstream televisions, as a tool for influencing attitudes and awareness surrounding mental health. Furthermore, the survey revealed that 91% of participants perceived the documentary as encouraging for young people to open up and talk to someone if they are experiencing mental health difficulties, and that viewers had a 5% higher level of intention to seek help than non-viewers, further showcasing the influence this television program had (Ryan, Williamson, Chambers, Arensman, & McTernan, 2020). This proves that, given the opportunity for freedom of speech to grow and spread positive information without any sorts of restriction, or in the case where it was being used for good, huge societal progress could be made.…”

John Locke’s Second Treatise exists as one of the fundamental concepts in modern political thoughts, acting as a basic foundation of liberalism at its early stages due to its core concepts focusing around freedom of speech and expression. His understanding of said freedom, however, comes with a limit centred around both direct and indirect harm, which acts as this article’s main point of interest. The author argues that Locke’s implementation of a limit on free speech does not impede the people’s freedom at all, but instead serves to create an environment where every opinion matters, no matter the origin, be it from a majority or minority. To support this argument, the author has put forth three claims based around several parts of the Second Treatise, along with case studies relating to them. As a result, Locke’s emphasis on the limits of free speech advocated for a wide-ranging opportunity for everyone to declare their opinions freely and openly, necessitating vigorous debates between opinions without resulting in friction between differing groups, acting as a tool for progress instead of conflict. To conclude, Locke reveals a nuanced understanding of freedom of speech while highlighting its role as a cornerstone of early liberalism while acknowledging limits around harm, and contending that his imposition of boundaries fosters inclusive environment while encouraging debates between opinions, and ultimately promotes progress in a society.

“…The immersive power of television serials through emotional engagement and connection provides older adults a satisfying life and well-being, which could extend successful ageing. The potential elements of television, such as its narrative style and characters, create an immersive state where viewers can forget the real world and have a positive influence on emotional well-being (Hammond et al, 2023; McTernan et al, 2023). Whether knowingly or unknowingly, engaging with television serials can help people forget their real-life problems and escape from their worries.…”

Tamil television serials have the potential to elicit a wide variety of emotions in viewers. Emotional control and expression change as individuals age, and this change is interrelated in various ways. Positive or negative emotions, when put into practice by regulating the emotions associated with health, can result in an increase or decrease in lifespan during successful ageing. This study explores the relationship between emotional well-being and prosperous ageing in Tamil television serials among older adults. An exploratory method was adopted to understand the connection between Tamil television serials and emotional well-being for successful ageing in Tamil Nadu (a southern state of India). Fourteen older adults over 50 who watch Tamil television mega-serials from Tamil Nadu were recruited for in-depth interviews. Three themes emerged from the thematic analysis: emotional connection, life satisfaction, fortitude and ageism among older adults. The findings suggest that Tamil television serials provide emotional engagement, companionship and life satisfaction for older adults, contributing to successful ageing.
