>>10532837Your mother sits lobotomized in front of the largest propaganda apparatus the world will ever see, until radio waves can be configured to beam messages into your brain.
She sits in both dread and fascination, the grand tradition of her environment proving its success by the mere fact that it makes enough to operate, and then some.
As she listens to the same party line that has been slowly cultivating (haha pun) for decades, she is ready without hesitation to shut out all contradictory information as the work of history's most evil people.
Nothing can reach her. Nothing will reach her. The civilization that allows her to live comfortably---if not simply live, period---will collapse around her, her
framework of the world will shatter, and she will simply pick up where her favorite messenger left off, with dysfunctional script that will crash in unfamiliar scenarios, making her eternally dependent on the new all-encompassing paradigm.
She will drag you into it, as per the requirements of the new system. Every thought-terminating cliche that she has memorized will be used to force your compliance and it will work, because by then, your will is bent to its absolute limit.
Your private thoughts will die, with no opportunity to verbalize them and all methods of recording them will be contraband or heavily monitored.
Your memories of the world before the shift will fade---in fact, you will doubt there even was a shift. You will entertain, then accept, that the way things are have always been that way.
Even the gut feeling that it was ever different will fade.
You will go hungry for multiple days in a row, be terminally ill from mandatory medical experimentation, have everything you believe deemed nonsense despite being the orthodox not yesterday (not that you could reliably argue, even to yourself, that it was), and you will be happy, because no alternative will be even conceptually possible to you.
