This sounds like the worst empty slogan. Similar to those thrown around by all sorts of life coaches.
The author gives no definition of 'passive' entertainment. Therefore, a few supporting questions: Is playing games passive or not? If I stomp my foot to music is it no longer passive? Is reading a book passive?
Huge arrogance, by the way:
"consumption of any media – film or television [...](means) to be filled with other people's mediocre thoughts and games".
For me, movies, games, books or music are an extension of my mediocre thoughts. They give a glimpse of how other people feel or see similar situations. They show them from a different perspective.
If the author thinks he has already seen all the perspectives of the world then I am purely sorry.
