#Ozymandias

By Percy Bysshe #Shelley

I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

@Sustainable2050 He's just showing that he's increasingly isolated. He's bought into this idea of "apexity" where when you're at the top "they let you do what you want." And he's surrounded himself with idiot minions that are supposed to turn whatever brilliant idea he comes up with in the moment into reality.
It's not just him, though. His magical belief in "manifesting" has infected his whole support structure. They have achieved (according to them) transcendence where, finally, the little people don't matter any more.
They have achieved, in other words, total separation from reality.

Sadly, I wonder if the things our #civilization sent into space, will be our #Ozymandias
