To Stay

When they were learning about namaste,
Others were shipping out to ‘Nam to stay
Free love and free time to play
Sold souls and gave it all away

Mentally crippled came home to zero care
Found compassion empty and no love to share
Safe home shutdown almost everywhere
propped up on corners for all to stare

God forbid is the mantra

Class war vets living high on fixed bets
Glittering synth pop pill pets
Paved streets with denied trauma treatment
Fuck you, I’ve got mine care impediment

Meat

Creating outrage is the most efficient path to monetization.
Remember this when your bias is confirmed by someone not on your “team” doing something you have been convinced is evil.
You are being used. Your outrage is a tool used to adjust you. Those who collect and use the information to manipulate your feelings do not care about your values. They care that your presences and anger have marketing value. Nothing more, nothing less. On social media, you are the product. The more they shape you through emotional manipulation, the more they can squeeze advertising and sales dollars out of you.
You have been bought and sold so many times that you will never know what value you have as a product.
Welcome to the machine. Once you pick a team, your bias shall be confirmed. You will be sectioned off. Your gods used against you. Your outrage sold to the highest bidder. Your anger was tweaked to just the right demographic. Your interests used to sell to you. Your negative reactions were used to confirm the bias of those on the other “team”.
You are all meat in the slaughterhouse who have not realized they have already been chopped up, parcelled out, and consumed.
