RE: A Medication Retreat

in Reflections9 hours ago (edited)

We are treating a lot of conditions that don't need to be created in the first place, but are created because of consumerism of some kind, which drives various trends in everything from education to parenting, to pharmaceutical treatments.

I love how you are able to understand hidden facts that the rich and affluent in the society doesn't want us to know.
I feel like most of the time, we're being played.
It's so bad that it's not just about the capitalist enjoying autonomy, but the government is part of the conspiracy.
They create a problem by making us believe it's normal, then later when we realise that this is a problem they go ahead to sell us the solution.
I wonder if it's just the society evolving into whatever we have now or if there are people orchestrating and directing the direction of evolution.
I hope people will be observant enough to see and understand what is going on; but of course they won't let us because the world is becoming more noisy and rowdy as time passes.

We are playing ourselves. We have the choice to behave differently, but it is a harder choice than to do what we are conditioned to do.
