Sociopath Community

This sounds like an intro to a paraphrasing of the matrix

We're all so damn human. From the most powerful billionaire to the lowest bum.

So very human and monkey-like.

That's the beauty of it, the sheer variation within our species otherwise has a unified foundation it stems from, and that unified foundation is further made uncanny by societal modeling. 

I think the repetitions are actually kinda neat, like a collective human identity. The ability to follow patterns is amazing, and our unique ability of time retention in conjunction with thumbs allows us to do far more than other animals. 

It feels so silly to me, having all those glorified chimpanzees walk around and play pretend. All of them, only human after all. It's madness, that's what it is, to judge such creatures on some sort of higher standards than you would beasts.

It's not really pretending when we're finding increasingly efficient ways of raping the planet, just saying. 

Looking at it from above, it's all so damn funny. You can use and abuse them right to rise to the top. You can rebel against the "system" and get fucked. But tell me, with those choices, are you truly free? Did you really exert your will?

Everyone lives in a cage, so you might as well have it be a gilded one. 

I doubt it. You simply reacted to the state of things. Perhaps that's okay. It can be your will to react after all. But, was it really, in this case? Did you really choose to do what you do? Or is it simply the product of external factors? Are you a machine, or is there a living breathing soul inside of you?

Does it feel good or not's a pretty baseline principle, yet it can be expressed in so many ways. 

I'd like to think, there is some free will left around. And as absurd and impractical as it might be, to act upon it, for me at least, is more precious than all the riches in the world. True liberation, a yell of freedom coming from the depths of slavery.

Nothing in life is free, but you can still call it yours. 

Many embrace selfishness by justifying how others have done it first, so perhaps instead of freedom seeking you should be looking for enablers if you otherwise want to feel it.
