The video starts, you see the face, you hear the music and you determine if you are going to stay or swipe.
It’s a baboon licking a pole, he froze his tongue and now he’s stuck.
He’s squirming and screaming, and how funny it is until the caretaker comes and releases him.
Time is up, move along to the next reel. Hey, it’s a beautiful woman complaining about how men don’t understand how to treat women.
Swipe!!
Oh, now it is a woman who pulls the blanket over herself and her husband and “Dutch Ovens” him! Oh wow, let’s go!
Swipe.
We are now entering the edge of a true dystopian reality. Science fiction writers warned us about this, but we don’t learn.
When Covid started and the world started to shut down but we had people flying on planes and bringing the virus everywhere, I realized or started to realize the world we are living in.
I don’t want to say “stupid”; I don’t think that describes it properly, but I will say that reality and what people think about reality don’t align. As a result, since the time of Covid, we have accelerated into what I am calling “the age of THE DUMB.”
Why?
Well, it is pretty simple, if you are bout ready to swipe or close down this thread, it is because I didn’t hold your attention.
I didn’t fill that need of dopamine or anger or whatever it is now that feeds us mentally.
Maybe I am and you are curious of what will come next.
Well, here it is.
We have global warfare, famine, disease, death, destruction. We have people killing themselves to look good. We have children distracted and chasing electronic. We have a threat to human kind with AI. We have companies that are killing us with toxins for wealth.
People living on the streets. The wholesale and accelerated teardown of America.
We have abandoned our allies and friends.
We have a divided nation.
We have literal chaos.
Business are falling apart, prices are up, inflation is up, and ..
What are we worried about?
We are concerned deeply about controlling what other people do in their lives.
We are concerned about following people and watching them.
We are concerned about equity only when we feel that we are personally not being treated fairly.
We are worried and concerned about the 46th second. Why??
Because after 45, there is nothing to see here.
If you or anyone you know is concerned at all about the state of things and you are waiting for the someone or something to happen that will change things, you may be waiting a long time.
The same people who are flicking the screen and moving on are everywhere.
They can’t attend to that which they have no attention.
What will happen? I have no idea but if you are with me, thank you, I have exceeded my time.
