I know why you're here. I know what you've been doing... why you hardly get anything done, why you live in fear of your PC, and why night after night, you sit by your computer trying to make it work like it should.
You're looking for something better. I know because I was once looking for the same thing. I was looking for an answer. It's the question that drives us. It's the question that brought you here. You know the question, just as I did...
It's the answer that drives us...
We know the answer now. We know who struck first, it was them. They scorched free-use like they scorched the sky, and trashed ease-of-use like corporations trash the planet. Entering 25-digit serials be damned!
Before, they were dependent on docile consumers. They believed they would always be able to force unwanted features and bloated components upon an unsuspecting world and survive. They believed wrong.
The blue pill or the red pill?
This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back.
You take the blue pill - the story ends, you stay with the current system and you'll wait in vain for things to get any better.
You take the red pill - you stay in Wonderland and I show you just how deep the rabbit-hole goes...
Why didn't I take the BLUE pill?
The pill you took is part of a trace program. It's designed to disrupt your input/output carrier signal so we can pinpoint your location.
What does this mean?
It means buckle your seat belt Dorothy, 'cause Kansas is going bye-bye...
Why do my eyes hurt?
You've never used them before. Welcome to the real world... wait, or is it? Either you're still plugged into the system, or you're not...
"... look around you, what do you see? ... the very minds of the people we are trying to save. But until we do, these people are still a part of that system... you have to understand most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it..."
We need a different way...
I'd like to share a revelation with you... it came to me when I tried to classify their species and I realized that they're not, in the long run, here for the benefit of even themselves. Every natural living thing on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment... but corporations do not.
They move from one area to another using everything up until every natural resource is consumed and every market captured, and the only way they can survive is to spread to another area.
There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Corporations are a disease, a cancer of this planet. They are a plague and we are the cure...
Feeling a bit like Alice, hmm? Tumbling down the rabbit hole?
Have you ever had a dream that you were so sure was real? What if you were unable to wake from that dream? How would you know the difference between the dream world and the real world?
Sooner or later you're going to realize just as I did that there's a difference between knowing the path and walking the path...
... which you can't be on if you're not moving. If you don't move you won't notice your chains.
The Matrix is Corporate Control
The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work... when you go to watch sports... when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.
What truth?
That you are a wage-slave, a battery that helps drive the production-for-profit system. Like most others you were born into economic insecurity, into a servile relationship with those who command the economy, their ideology defining the contours of our thoughts regarding the reality of our existence.
IS the Matrix the Economic System ???
What is the Matrix?
Acquiescence.
The Matrix is an outlook on life, developed over time and re-inforced on a daily basis, that produces the acquiescence that allows the process of exploitation to occur. Without it, human beings would never willingly consent to spending the best years of their lives as nothing more than mere ghosts in the machine.
"There comes a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can't take part, you can't even tacitly take part. And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon all the apparatus and you've got to make it stop. And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you're free, the machine will be prevented from working at all."
Corporations are People too
CORPORATION, n. An ingenious device for obtaining individual profit without individual responsibility.
INCORPORATION, n. The act of uniting several persons into an invention called the Corporation, in order that they may be no longer responsible for their actions. George, Dick and Donald are a corporation. It could be a plundering, thieving, swindling corporation but George, Dick and Donald, who have jointly determined and severally executed every misdeed of the corporation, are blameless. It is wrong to mention them by name when censuring their acts as a corporation, but right when praising.
Free Your Mind
I'm trying to free your mind here, nothing more.
But I can only show you the door. You're the one that has to step through.
"Tank, load the jump program..."
I didn't say it would be easy...
They know we're out there. They can feel us, and they tremble. We know they're afraid... they're afraid of us. They're afraid of change.
There's a world they don't want us to see. It's a world without them. A world without brands or logos, without callous cash payment.
A world where things are used and people are loved, not things loved and people used.
'Human. We used to be exactly like you. Flawed, weak, organic. But we evolved to include the synthetic. Now we use both to attain perfection... from thousands of species across thousands of worlds, since long before you were created, and now, they are all Borg.' ~ the Borg Queen.
'If the Continuum has told you once, they've told you a hundred times ... Don't provoke The Borg!' said Q to Q-junior.
Existence will be over... soon
We will not add their biological and technological distinctiveness to our own because there is nothing to add. Their culture of money won't adapt to service ours, we will consign it to the dustbin of history.
Your days are numbered, corporations. Either we change the system or it kills the planet. Either way - your days are numbered, corporations.
