Plausible Comfort 7/10
📖 4. Social Myth-Making
Sometimes the truth is just too inconvenient.
So a version is invented:
“It was legal.”
“No one saw.”
“Move on.”
The myth is easier than the mess.

The world is constructed — not for you to worship, not for you to collapse.
Once you see this, you don't need truth to move, to create, to continue.
Only the weak use nihilism as an excuse; the lucid build new stages on ruins.

If you, any of you gentlemen, are dreaming about electric sheep, do I have news for you. If you aren't, I would still like a word. Philip K. Dick

A blog about reviews, mostly movies but also branching out into music, anime, games, snot bubbles; whatever I want to talk about

Those #ClickBait #ads for articles and services are ubiquitous. Just remember to keep in mind the #MassMediaPrinciples. They play to your #values, #beliefs and #ideologies, but what if we change those icon images ? A different #ConstructedReality emerges. How do those #BusinessInterests and intended #TargetAudiences look now ? Use the principles to view with a slightly ironic eye and the #Underlying#Intention of the #message becomes obvious.

But the problem is a real one, not a mere intellectual game. Because today we live in a society in which #SpuriousRealities are manufactured by the #Media, by #governments, by big #Corporations, by #ReligiousGroups, #PoliticalGroups — & the #ElectronicHardware exists by which to deliver these #PseudoWorlds right into the heads of the reader, the viewer, the listener. #PhilipKDick, #1978
