A World Built on Fantasy: Questioning Modern Reality
1 min Life & society
You're not real. You're not real. What? You are?
Is any of it real? I mean, look at this.
Look at it! A world built on fantasy. Synthetic emotions in the form of pills.
Psychological warfare in the form of advertising.
Mind-altering chemicals in the form of food.
Brainwashing seminars in the form of media.
Control isolated bubbles in the form of social networks.
Real? You wanna talk about reality? We haven't lived in anything remotely close to it since the turn of the century.
They turned it off, took out the batteries, snacked on a bag of GMOs while we- Tossed the remnants in the ever-expanding dumpster of the human condition.
Look at these branded houses, trademarked by corporations, built on bipolar numbers, jumping up and down on digital displays, hypnotizing us into the biggest slumber mankind has ever seen.
You have to dig pretty deep, kiddo, before you can find anything real.
We live in a kingdom of bullshit
