Corrosion of Conformity
I cannot escape, the frequencies penetrate
Decibels pound me into submission
Camera eye, forever the spy
Motions captured for the living impaired
Silicone dictators in plastic mansions
Fiber optic propaganda
Streaming fashion inflames the passion
To climax in the blink of an eye
Terabyte brainwaves, upload in progress
Eternally the master and server
2.0 human alien being
Forever existing in some random computer
Technocracy
Is it saving me?
Technology
Inside of me
Technocracy
Is it freeing me?
Technology
Killing me!

To me technology is the curse of the century. It alienates us in stead of connecting us (imo) We are forced into obedience. I take digital detoxes at time - go inwards.
Love this piece - the title is freaking awesome 🖤

Thank you my friend. I appreciate it. The title is actually the name of a Hardcore/punk, thrash metal band from North Carolina. Huge fan of their music.
I agree with you. I actually have nothing in my house that is AI or "Smart" It's unhealthy and it's creating problems with people connecting with one another. If you want to watch a great film that has some truth behind it, watch "Leave the world behind" with Julia Roberts and Ethan Hawke. Here's the trailer.

It's indeed unhealthy, I'm really sensitive to wifi / EMF, but people declare me crazy, because it's "proved" to be safe (shakes head) Thanks for mentioning that film, will certainly check it out - the trailer is amazing.

Thank you Debbie. I appreciate the read and comments. Technology is going to be the end of us humans as we know it.

I love that term technocracy...it's so accurate. For a thing meant to connect, all it seems to do is dumb us down. People don't know how to hold actual conversations anymore. It's sad to see the decline of humanity as technology rises. I'm never more at peace than camping in the woods with no devices distracting. Loved this

Very true. It's becoming a real issue. As were getting older, the children being born during the last 2 decades have no concept of life pre-2000.
I think most of us were much happier. I miss the 90's!
Thanks for reading.

Something already impending by the overuse of technology .. the more n more stoic humans been reduced to mere emotionless n sterile creatures.. & yes the rise of these AI is more worst.. the human machine hybrid if so.. is much more frightening ..
am reminded of a web series i saw sone months ago .. about the Vedas the sacred texts .. which has 4 .. the fifth one talks of this rise that if not stopped, takes over humans n world ..
Fine powerful write n stark questions n the truth here Keith . xx

Keep technology at a minimum. It's not worth it. Don't sacrifice your time for something that has no heart, mind and soul. Thanks Uma...always xxxx
