      Sounds like what they’re saying. Basically, if tomorrow like 80-90% of ppl got implants, but same number of shootings and attacks happened as happen now, im sure there would be plenty of people calling it something very similar. And still blaming everything by the societal ills that led us here. “It’s guns, it’s mental health, it’s bullying, it’s blah, it’s blah.”

      Everything but the overarching truth that we are extremely disenfranchised and beaten down and made insignificant in a system that literally runs on us for the good of the system.

      The absolute back asswards orientation. We are the most advanced society ever known, but we serve capital and the idea of the capitalist system. We sacrifice ourselves for it, our bodies, our families, our time, our passions and dreams. To serve capitalism.

      It’s the absurdity of the truth. This is an absurd existence. Why not act absurdly? It’s malaise or it’s psychosis. Most of us just err on the side of malaise.
