I Like a Good Quote

This quote pretty much exemplifies what people within most of society now subscribe to. So many people don’t give a crap anymore. They stand down, glued to a cell phone, lost within an existence. Emptying their soul with irrelevant things, fearing substance and truth.

Most people don’t live with purpose anymore, they reject anything which requires effort, character and virtue. They stand for nothing but cliches, lies and the massaging of their own ego.

God help those who have been bullied into submission, afraid to act, whose very speech and thoughts have been stifled and lost forever within a black hole. A dystopian society which now exists only to promote a cult-like behavior of group “thought.”
