Forget the power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never to be re-learned.
Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim darkness of the far future there is only war.
There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods.
Let's just say that all of the last few "technological advances" mankind has made are paid subscription services, microtranscations in video games, AI-generated artwork, AI-generated text, "stay at home" measures and censorship algorithms.
None of these which are benefitting people to begin with, but they give the elite plenty of negative energy to remain virtually immortal.
They say we are getting 1984 and Brave New World...I laugh at them. We are getting Warhammer 40k on a grounded scale.
Nah. By 2008 the Internet was a shell of what it was in 2000. The sad part is people have come to rely on something they do not fundamentally understand or have any semblance of control over. This is by design I think social media and everything that has come after serves to identify the "useless eaters" It may serve multiple purposes at the moment, to give people an artificial view of the world and to impose literally impossible standards on an agreeable population. Every day that goes by people become more reliant upon a weapon in their enemies hands. Burn it all down pookie we're losing our collective humanity seeking the validation of strangers while being sold shit we don't need
In 2008 people don't kill you over slight misagreements. Physical mind control is here but not spiritual mind control (since Cern haven't released the daemons yet).
