We really do live in an illusion
I haven't watched tv in over a year but to watch just a bit today just solidified my long term belief we are in an illusion .

Adds with all paid actors yelling and selling shit we dn't need as if they are your friends and neighbors when they are not .

News media talking heads clammoring away with news speak from scripts and opinion based on nothing .

All the presidential hopefuls all lined up in a row with plans for a future that may not come in some sort of surreal joke .

Then I look out side and see this very product of this illusion in living color .

All that is needed is a plan and an actor with the right words to pitch the sale whether it's politics or a 4 in one mop , whether it's war or murder or hate it sells .

It's all an illusion and all for the all mighty dollar and nothing more , nothing less .

1. Created reality.
And the great majority of Americans are absolutely terrified to look under the rock.
