you've been mistaken your whole life

In your life you've learned some truth, you've learned many truths, but you'll never know the truth. Your brain, an absorbent cloth; pressed to the counter and soiled with informational dirt. Eons of innovation - from loosely-wound plant matter to a mutli-layer Scotch towelette. All of engineering history has led to the moment you are wasted and discarded. You pad your neo-cortex with alternative truths. Thousands of hours wasted on ancient philosophy, self-help books and other intellectual pollutants. Perhaps you believe you have not learned enough. In your cognitive starvation, you believed the cure was information. The truth to you is the propaganda you've been micro-dosed since the moment you were able to speak. In your mind exists the Tigris River Valley, the fertile crescent where man gained his consciousness. Instead of drinking its water and planting seeds of one's self, you decided to dump your refuse into it.

No level of informational truth will ever amount to the singular truth you know within yourself. You convince yourself of your own complexity, based on the simple concepts designed for everyone else to indulge. You believe the stories told by others word of mouth proves your own individuality. Do you really believe that you've ever had a truly original thought? Even in the impossible circumstance you have a thought not conceived before, you will find that it relies on elements of thoughts created by others. Others who are likely as wrong as you are. You rely on the facts of the tongue, the education of the flesh. The only fact that you will find is true is that you have been misled.

Guided from the Tigris to the Dead Sea. You travel miles overland only to be face to face with a pool of salt, one you can not drink from.

Zeno of Citian, Nietzsche, Marx and Jefferson. Your parents, teachers, mentors and religious figure heads. The architects of your ignorance - you find security in another's ideas because you believe they are your own. Your perception of the truth sitting right in front of your eyes, clouded by the dirt of a philosophical wasteland. Today you will make a change. You will stop relying on the fruits of the garden and instead you will learn to plant your own. No - don't plant them from seeds of the fruits given, they are tainted, evolved to another man's taste. You must force yourself to explore the jungle of false realities before you are able to reap the true gifts of nature. On your journey you will find plastic fruit strung to poison vines. You've already learned to sample them, so use that compulsion to indulge as a warning sign. The truth is not beautiful, the shape of that apple is too pristine to be real.

That is because it is not real.

They take away your sound mind; manifest destiny on the human psyche. Think of it - is anything scientific based on true facts? If a fact is based on a theory, proven by a theoretical, is it the obvious truth? Psychology is an imperfect art - theory applied on guinea pigs and based on accidental discovery. Like putting a goat in a horse's pen, "getting your goat", psychologists merely observe for when things happen and note when they are significant. They apply reasons behind why that is and use all the scientific theory in the world to reinforce it. Theory based on theoreticals. Before psychology, there was philosophy. When the ancient Greeks had an issue, they would call up their local book store and read a fucking tablet. Unlike psychology, philosophy has no delusion of truth - philosophy is a crock of shit made up by people who were forced to drink alcohol due to a lack of potable water. No scientific process, no observations of the suffering, only encouraging words crafted from a man's singular origin brain. You wouldn't want your alcoholic father to give you sound advice on your mental health, why would you let someone alive thousands of years ago do the same? Because he uses big words and says things that sound intellectual?

Face it - the concept of language is a delusion. Mass hysteria developed since the dawn of man, so far back it has its own sects and denominations. Doesn't it sound odd to think that we are animals who change the shape of our mouths to mimic different sounds, only to represent concepts of reality? A very long time ago, a schizophrenic ape decided to associate sounds with objects. Later, a different schizophrenic ape decided to associate shapes with those concepts too - eventually isolating those shapes to specific sounds, not even the whole concept.

It truly does not matter if it has proven to help us. Once, it helped us communicate about predators on the savanna, lead a group of simians to their prey, and guided each other to water. Now, we live past that in an equally deluded world, where those same words only guide us to places in the mind to perish. It separates us from the tangible world, we live our whole lives through a theoretical, a mess of words and concepts that exist metaphysically. Reach out and grab the air before you. In your hands are nothing, but at least the shapeless air is real. Your words are not. Your concepts are not. Your beliefs are not. Close your eyes for just one moment and feel the seat below you - that is real, you know it is real because you can feel it.

"I think therefore I am" - no, you think because you are, and those thoughts have left you so deluded that you genuinely have to wonder whether the world around you is even real.

That doesn't sound sick to you? Being so bored, so unsure of what is real and what is fake that you are left to invent a hard cemented reason to attest the fact that you, indeed, exist? This whole earth is mentally ill, we've passed down this same schizophrenic lifestyle through generations. We've allowed it to transcend to the point where everyday lives are now spent questioning the bounds of reality. You were meant to walk the wild, barefoot, not a word to be spoken. You grew two arms to rip your enemies in two, and now you hold a pencil.
