I can not go anywhere I want and do whatever I want as I'm not free. In this world you have to buy your temporary freedom. Everything we do from birth till death is a business. Your wife is your 'partner', when you get children you 'reproduce', you get programmed in schools to become a productive pay check slave, etc etc. We are in fact slaves. Too bad most of us would rather turn a blind eye and keep their thoughts in the little conformist bubble.

What I picked up:be a non conformist,live like cave men and choose your own path. Btw life is just like a movie,we are all actors on the stage of life and not writers,every decision,action,thought has been written by life you can think you're changing your role but the outcome will still be what life had planned it to be,you can't escape the all seeing,lol.

Pretty true. Greed is probably the biggest issue for humankind; it's like a cancer, slowing killing society from the inside. I don't know what we can do besides unite to stop these issues, especially when a percent of the world are fine with their fantasy.

I am doing what I want.

Humanity can only achieve things when they work together there is just useless savagery and dark age otherwise.

I've been aware but I know a good chunk of the population will continue what they're doing and I'm no different. The media is very very powerful...

You can't do anything without money. If you have a lot of money then you are free to do whatever you want, and that's why we have education that gives us the chance to get that freedom.

You have an interesting point with the technology because in 20 years robots will take over our jobs. We can use energy when the oil disappears.

Robots taken human jobs is inevitable. You are not changing that. Just accept it and prepare yourself for the future like getting a degree in Technology/Computers whatever.

OT: People have tried waking humanity from their illusions for many years. Obviously, its not working.

I agree. Riker mentioned Fight Club and Tyler Durden said it best. "Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need." Although that movie went overboard with it.

I have family in Afghanistan who have nothing yet are living their lives happy, and having fun, while I just feel numb to everything and am shocked how fast my days go by wasted.
