You know, I hear people say things like they are always lethargic, stressed out, irritable etc. and honestly I dont see why that should come as a surprise to anyone living today. Each time you wake up you are subjected to thousands upon thousands of microscopic psychological attacks designed to make you buy a certain product, act and look a certain way, vote for a certain politician or bill, what pills to take for what illness you’ve been duped into thinking you might have, to watch a certain movie, to click on a certain link, to share a certain URL, to worship certain gods and celebrities..the list infinite and they do this all by directly manipulating you at a subconscious level before you are even aware. From they colors they chose and the fancy fonts, the carefully chosen spokesperson, the products placement in stores, the flashing lights, the catch phrases and ear-worm jingles….
All these are marketing tactics developed from generations and generations of studies to understand WHAT MAKES PEOPLE TIC. How to make people need something they dont want and want something they both dont need and cant afford. They can even sell you things that tell you RIGHT THERE on the product in bold lettering: THIS WILL KILL YOU. And they can make you do it with a smile on your face.
You are nothing but a target market and todays world – with our eyes continuously pulled towards television screens, cell phones, computer monitors, billboards and advertisements – is nothing but target practice for mega corporations. Youve been tricked and manipulated into even something as simple as which .75 cent soft drink you decide on for your lunch.
Our brains are being tugged in millions of different directions EVERY second of EVERY day. Being TIRED is an understatement. We are psychologically EXHAUSTED and spiritually DRAINED. We are defeated, broke and disenchanted and it blows my fucking mind daily that people wonder why.
