Elliot:
Is it that, we collectively thought that, Steve Jobs was a great man? Even when we knew he made billions off the backs of children. Or maybe it's that it feels like all our heroes are counterfeit. The world itself is just one big hoax. Spamming each other with our commentary bullshit masquerading as insight. Our social media faking us into intimacy, or is that we voted for this? Not with our rigged elections, but with our things, our property, our money. I'm not saying anything new, we all know why we do this. Not because Hunger games books makes us happy, but because we want to be sedated. Because it's painful not to pretend, because we're cowards. F*** Society.

Is any of it real a world built on fantasy synthetic emotions in the form of pills psychological welfare in the form of advertising Mind altering chemicals in the form of food brain washing seminars in the form of media controlled isolated bugles in the form of social networks real you want to talk about reality hasn't existed since the turn of the century we can't turn it off with a pack of batteries and eating a bag of GM oil tossed the remnants in the ever expanding dumpster of the human condition. Branded houses traded marked by trade marked by corporations built by bipolar numbers jumping up and down on digital displays. Hypnotizing us into the biggest slumber mankind has ever seen need ti dig pretty deep before you find anything real. We live in a kingdom of bullshit kingdom you have lived in far too long you are as much real as a beef patty in your Bigmac!” more »
