Screenmaster's speech

Alyson 2022-04-22 07:01:04

Superheroes are what you use
Superheroes are part of your brainless desire...
One of the mindless fantasies that simulate real experience
to replace true experience with simulation.
You don't talk but love to watch talk shows
You don't talk, you watch talk shows.
You don't play games but you love to watch game shows
You don't play games, you watch game shows.
travel love adventure
Travel, relationships, risk...
These meaningful experiences have to be packaged
every meaningful experience must be packaged...
for you to watch from a distance
and delivered to you to watch at a distance.
So you can be safe
So that you can remain ever sheltered...
reluctant to make progress
ever passive...
Just be a greedy consumer
ever ravenous consumers...
I don't even want to get up from my couch
who can't bring themselves to rise from their couches...
Have a hearty life experience
break a sweat and participate in life.
You want superheroes to protect you
You want superheroes to protect you...
make yourself more helpless
and make yourselves ever more powerless in the process.
You tell yourself someone is protecting you
While you tell yourselves you're being looked after.
your interests are met
That your interests are being served.
Your rights are upheld
And your rights are being upheld.
So the system can continue to search for you
So that the system can keep stealing from you...
and smile at you
smiling at you all the while.
Come on, send your superheroes to stop me
Go ahead, send your Supers to stop me.
Grab your snacks and stare at the screen
Grab your snacks, watch your screens,
see what happens
and see what happens.
you are no longer in control
You are no longer in control.
I'm the
I am.
