“The transformative awakening, that fleeting moment when you fool yourself into thinking that being fully present actually matters. As if being attuned to the environment and responding to its demands could solve the mess we’ve made. How quaint. This delusional state of consciousness supposedly grants you a deep understanding of social and political issues, fueling your noble quest for justice and equality. But let’s face it, it’s just another excuse for self-righteousness and virtue signaling. Mindfulness, empathy, and grasping our surroundings won’t change a thing. We’re all interconnected in this sinking ship, desperately clinging to the illusion of a just and harmonious society.”
