Very Internet Person

"Want to match my freak? Reality shift into another dimension? Schizo-post your way to internet-sanctioned brainwashing? Nowadays, it’s not a matter of what exists, but what you choose to exist as. A recent report suggests that Gen Z don’t bother to fact-check information they see online, instead choosing to believe what like-minded peers or trusted influencers say – basically, what they see as important. Plugged into our personal psy-opticons we create our own mental maps to justify our own narratives, like Terrance McKenna’s ‘self-transforming’ machine elves on a DMT trip. It’s not a cosmic jump, then, to feel like everything is a psyop, everyone is a crisis actor."

kind of a depressing but accurate essay about our increasingly hypersimulated "realities". enjoy!

“We are existing within the context SO hard rn,” 

 But be careful, “weirdness can be very addictive”.

Feel very lost between this two paradigm tho
