The Role of Delusion in Modern Society

Delusion plays a significant role in shaping contemporary culture, driven by an overwhelming media landscape characterized by countless channels and advertisements. This environment fosters a perception where individuals can create and cling to their own delusions, often involving elements of self-deception. The consequences of this delusional state are seen across various platforms, with many people ignoring pressing issues, while others monetize these fantasies. As a result, societal problems such as income inequality and climate change are frequently simplified or masked by an individualistic focus, distancing individuals from the larger systemic issues at play.
