You know the phrase "I can see through the smoke and mirrors"???
Like..
If you really think about it..
These two combined really do make illusions
How the smoke appear larger, more area consuming because how the mirrors reflect it and make you think that maybe there's that much smoke and so much more
But seeing through the illusion
You'll see how pathetic of a smoke it actually is
like
a fraction of what you thought
And it really does make for a major phrase when you call out people's fakeness
through the "Mirrors" ( their phones and gadgets ) and the amount of "Smoke" (the clout or the noise they make in the internet) aren't really all that it seems when you see through their personna
It's pitiful in a way
That
there are these people
desperately trying to gather attention even if they lose their dignity in doing so
Pretending to be the personna that they are just for mere entertainment
And what's worse, they actually believe that it is "them", the "them" that they believe is their personna that they made for other people to adore
even if it's not the real "them" they'd play it off like it's their original self
and in the long run, these "illusions" slowly fade out and what happens after the illusion is seen through?
They become part of the "Ah that shit's old" bin
And now what do these people do?
They'll try to make another stir up just to get the attention once again
New personna, new start, that's how these pretentious bastards in the internet live off of the consumers of the platforms
Then there are also those who are completely self contradictory
The indecisive ones
Those who cannot commit to their own words
What has this world became?
It's tragic
With the rise of technology, humans become enslaved by it
The entire line up in the theory of evolution is actually just a tragedy genre of a compilation of novels that shows the beginning of humans down to their very downfall
Did you see the end of the evolutionary ladder in that illustration?
Human evolution ends with us, the Homo sapien sapiens
Don't you think that was already a foreshadowing of how our very race will end????
And that even though all of humanity is already aware of that, they still hide underneath this illusions..
