“What does the money machine eat? It eats youth, spontaneity, life, beauty, and, above all, it eats creativity. It eats quality and shits quantity.” — William S. Burroughs
The matrix was one of the most effective coping mechanisms ever discovered. Made everyone safe, away from harm, focused on mundane tasks engineered by others, partying, bumping into others feeds. Putting that harmless mask to let ppl know that you are surviving still.
When people hear you talking in this tone, it feels like you are hating and pesimisstically rounded. No, I am looking for answers, poeple are me are to low to ask or think of.
We all don't want to face some truths, but one day we all will, the sooner the better. Face everything. Question every problem. Doubt your values. Deeply.
Some people when they reach here, will choose to take their life away out. We see people burning, cutting, hanging themselves not to face some of the pleasures of life. Not for money, not for fame and specially not for status. Killing themselves can end every struggle, right? But when you do this, you will be stuck there with your subconscious forever in dark. Somewhere away from heaven. You have left mark into others subconcious hallucinations, negatively.
“Let me not then die ingloriously and without a struggle, but let me first do some great thing that shall be told among men hereafter.” ― Homer, The Iliad
AI made it worse. Now we all got that sweet talk machine, creating words, sentences and manipulating people into insanity. I was a victim too. both have the same notion as Social Media. which is increasing usage via sweet talking and validation. which leads to more consumption and wasted human energy capacity into fine-tuned systems maximizing profit.
Drug dealer buy Jordan, crackhead buy crack. And the white man get paid off of all of that. ― YE, All falls down
Just leave! Do not participate. that reality check day, when it comes, you won't be ready to handle it alone. Possibly now too. Most people have got those small non-trivial tasks, unlimited human wants and dreams. These are so fragile.
Sit for a while and think it through deeply. eventually you will get to a point that, the human-being purpose is to work on meaningful stuff, put value on the table, others must feel the value you created to them. Do not waste time chasing money. "My wife, my friends will leave or ignore me if I don’t have enought! I need money" Unless you want to be chased by non-trivial doubts, fear, chronic zoning out, stealing and being sold endless dreams. Find new friends, new wife if her sole needs are aligned with you getting paid to support her entire lifestyle.
"Do everything that you feel, even if you're told that it's the wrong thing." ― YE
