Brave New World

Folder: 
Society

We are embarking on

the age of innovation

where we are

the primary test subjects

and the experiment

is their ability

to brainwash us.



They are already

training us to believe

promiscuous sex

is to be revered

and love does not exist.



They tell us

drugs ease the pain,

but they only

magnify the problem.



We’re conditioned

to believe in

the inferiority

of other races and

do ridicule

our fellow man.



Why do we think

that just because

our minds are

being used more fully

that we have to

change the customs

that worked for

the world for centuries?

We are embarking on
the age of innovation
where we are
the primary test subjects,
and the experiment
is their ability
to brainwash us.

They are already
training us to believe
promiscuous sex
is to be revered,
and love does not exist.

They tell us
drugs ease the pain,
but in reality,
they only magnify
the problem.

We’re conditioned
to believe in
the inferiority
of other races
and to ridicule
our fellow man.

Why do we believe
their lies when
they stand against
our values,
our deep-seated convictions?

Is it easier to follow
the rest of humanity
to their homely graves
than to take a stand
against the Man?
