What have we actually done or experienced to know beyond what we are fed? (of course some of us travel oobe so I am sure you proved it to yourself in that way) See what I mean? The system revolves around belief that is built upon choices that are inside a framework that has been chosen for us. You want a car because the choice was offered to you, you want that color because that color was offered to you. This applies to the shapes of things as well. Even clothing, you get to choose what is already produced that someone has decided is good for you.
We don't go out and create solid reality very much, our eyes are focused within the structure put in front of us and where our gaze travels our path follows.
This is why I am not comfortable in society LoL!
Im so glad I'm not the only one who noticed this. I especially noticed the clothing part and am quite annoyed by this. But this almost universally applies; it is very very difficult to find something that is not trying to sell itself to you so the owner of the company can make more money. Heck, even the house I live in is a perfect example of this. It looks very pretty and liveable when the house is empty and you are being shown it in a very short time period (so you don't notice much besides the surface). But after you live in the house for a couple of months, you discover the plumbing sucks, the hardwood floors are cheap particle board lookalikes. The walls have little to no insulation despite it being one of the hottest cities in the US and despite it being much newer than the last crappy house/apartment I lived in. Everything turns out to be shallow with surface beauty only. Everything is designed to wear out rather than the opposite of which would be quality and longevity.
These are the reasons I have pretty much completely lost faith in capitalism because it seems to encourage this unrelentingly. Of course then if you voice any of these concerns, the sheeple are trained to call you "communist" whether or not that makes any sense at all.
