Living in the Matrix

What is our true purpose here? Are we here to make a quick buck, have kids, watch football, and then die? I choose not to believe that but I’m fighting against a society that completely buys into that foggy dream.

I watch people busy their lives doing things that they don’t want to do because everyone else convinces them that they have to be miserable just like them.

“The love of Money is the root of all evil.”

Money used to be used as a tool for trade but all I see it as now is a tool for greed. It tears families apart, it tears friendships apart, and it tears societies apart. We see the rich getting richer, while us poor down here fight over the scraps never bothering to look up and realize that we’re all getting fucked.

We shop at multi-billion dollar companies like; Amazon, Target, and Walmart to buy useless things that somehow, in our little brains make us think that we’ll forget about our misery if we just have that new T.V., or toaster.

Well, guess what?

You’re fucked if you think that. You’re just going to end up in a house full of useless bullshit that you’re going to have to move when you get kicked out.

Trying to talk to people about this is useless now to me. They are more interested in protecting an orange haired maniac because he has the same obsession that they do…

Money.

That’s what it all comes down too.

Screw the Homeless, screw the Veterans, screw the poor, screw the Mexicans, or anybody else that tries to climb over our fictitious wall. To the Orange Idiots they are people just trying to take advantage of THEIR money.

Where did we go wrong?

When did money become so much more important than community?

When did we stop looking at our brothers and sisters with compassion?

Have we become so busy just trying to get by that we’ve forgotten these fundamental beliefs? Is it too late to turn around or are we actually so deeply part of the Matrix?

If that is the case, then I want out. There is nothing for me here.

Unless…
