Some people can mistake that for cynicism you're not cynical uh no I would just uh like to be realistic and see things as they are. A lot of stuff in life is designed to fuck you over and to control you, whether it's films or marketing or commercials or podcasts or books or Instagram pages. It's all designed to take it like control of your consciousness and get you to have a reaction. You become more of a you know sovereign being amongst a really complicated like consciousness controlling society. There's multiple dimensions of things happening all the time but good because it helps you have more freedom.
