'The Lie We Live'

Boa tarde,

compartilho convosco um vídeo super interessante sobre a falsa realidade em que vivemos. Juntamente com o vídeo, citei algumas partes do mesmo que achei extremamente relevantes. 

"WE LIVE IN A WORLD ON THE VERGE OF COLLAPSE

for violence will never be the answer, it will destroy every possible solution"

"After all, money isn’t what drives [the elite]. It’s power. Money is simply the tool they use to control us. Worthless pieces of paper we depend on to feed us, move us, entertain us. They gave us money and in return we gave them the world. Where there were trees that cleaned our air are now factories that poison it. Where there was water to drink, is toxic waste that stinks. Where animals ran free, are factory farms where they are born and slaughtered endlessly for our satisfaction. We are like a plague sweeping the earth, tearing apart the very environment that allows us to live. We see everything as something to be sold, as an object to be owned. But what happens when we have polluted the last river? Poisoned the last breath of air? Have no oil for the trucks that bring us our food? When will we realize money can’t be eaten, that it has no value?"

"We think we’re running for a cure, but really we’re running away from the cause. Our body is a product of what we consume and the food we eat is designed purely for profit. We fill ourselves with toxic chemicals. The bodies of animals are infested with drugs and diseases. But we don’t see this. The small group of corporations that own the media don’t want us to, surrounding us with a fantasy we’re told is reality."

"If we all look at our innermost desire, we will see our dreams are not so different. We share a common goal: Happiness. We tear the world apart looking for joy, without ever looking within ourselves. Many of the happiest people are those who own the least. But are we really so happy with our iPhones, our big houses, our fancy cars?"
