When I was doing shift work with two jobs and paying off my student loans I kind of came to the conclusion that much of the world we live in is fake. This isn't "real life" it's a delusion and even if you wake up the rest of the world sleeps. Real life to me are the indisputible things that we can all experience and have to contend with. Growing up, learning, communing with friends, being outside that's all real.
Anything that you can opt out of by virtue of being rich is fake and not something I'm going to take seriously as I would be missing on the core experience of life otherwise.
Even as a kid I would hear the phrase "reality is what you make of it" and think that, no, the people with power created the reality that's best for them and you either fit neatly into that or you starve and die.
I mean with that knowledge, if youre not the power haver and your base instinct tells you not to eat shit, you have to see the contradictions of our stupid society and do your best to hide in them.

Men make their own history, but they do not make it as they please; they do not make it under self-selected circumstances, but under circumstances existing already, given and transmitted from the past. The tradition of all dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the brains of the living.
