We are reminded today through different legislative actions both locally and nationally that our freedom here is America is a dream just as in the fictional world of The Matrix. Even in other nations we go about our daily lives barely looking up or around to notice we have all truly given up most of our liberties. We float around from home to work and back plugged into the machine that feeds us the lie that is our current state of democracy.
Having been born into this type of slavery and asleep you are not self aware. The subtle clues that would expose this rouse go right above our heads and we accept the lies. I have always felt that we had a near perfect society here in the states, but the last three and a half years has exposed the chink in the armor. The Matrix has been working on keeping us asleep since FDR but two years ago a few began to awaken.
I have just recently awaken myself. By no means am I comparing myself to Neo. I see myself as just one of the thousand there in the warm center at Zion. I know who Neo is but his coming will be a lot more dramatic and supernatural. I just kept seeing those echoes in our system, the glitches in our Matrix that give me Deja Vu. Some of the malfunctions of the system were:
1. A culture of welfare and handouts
2. Political apologies for our Americanism
3. Socialist and progressive activism
These are just a few that disturbed my slumber. Now that I am awake I am restless. I had to come up with a way to escape. The pill that I swallowed is Realism.
