Too late man, the seed of zombification has already been planted, TV and celebrities are these peoples gods. The world needs to hit a reset. If there are indeed other life forms out there in the universe they have distanced themselves from the fuck up that is the human disease.

The breakdown of orthodoxies is always a high-energy process, and it always involves significant violence. An orthodoxy is a set of rules and expectations the population lives under, reinforced by the institutions of the day and adopted by the overwhelming majority of average people. The current "global" orthodoxy includes a larger proportion of the human family than any that came before it. Christian orthodoxy was the underpinning of European/US civilization until ~1900, and the destruction of that and its replacement with "scientism" (the current orthodoxy) represents the 20th century into the beginning of this one. Now scientism is beginning to break down - though only a few so far recognize the process. People are searching for a new set of rules, but none so far is strong enough to win the day. Until one is, the decay of the old orthodoxy is all we've got. This is one of those tough times to live through. Assuming we survive, history will find our struggle a noble one, but with lots of pain embedded within, as it always is in times of rapid change.
