What if the world is rigged almost by design? That things are always going to evolve so that the most heinous gets in the highest levels of society. Or it can be that its just "easier" to take the evil road than the good road. Either way, it's still messed up.

It all boils down to the origins of thought. Shrinks know that there is ZERO evidence that thought is man's creation. So, if you remade your view of the world based on the idea that thought comes from elsewhere. What would your view of the world be then? What would make sense?

No, most won't, and some who will are going to stop exercising their minds after waves of pollution temporarily overcomes them. The lying scum in power are inadvertently adding to this thought-pollution through the controlling of meager personalities.

Speaking of which, it was a blow when I realized I could no longer enjoy music the same way as before. I've been playing guitar and bass for years, and have more or less put these down due to the involutive effects my upbringing had on making and listening to modern music. I still haven't rectified this issue; obviously, some part of me clings to waste. And the pressure is indeed high...
