strain a gnat and swallow a camel

只看楼主收藏回复

"We are intended to see through the eye, with the conscience. Instead, the visual media, especially television and movies, manipulates us into seeing with the eye, devoid of the conscience, whose role it is to place parameters around what we see. The supremacy of the eye-gate makes it easy to strain at a gnat and swallow a camel.
Q1: Regarding whose role…, does “whose” mean visual media?
Q2: Does “eye-gate” mean visual media also?
Initially, I thought “whose” and “eye-gate” both refer to conscience. If so, the last sentence doesn’t make sense.
Thank you.
