21st century, known as the *Age Of [Shit](shit.md)*, *Dark Ages*, *Middle Ages 2.0*, *The [Brainwashing](brainwashing.md) Era* or *the century when [jokes](jokes.md) become reality*, is already one of the worst centuries in [history](history.md), despite only being around for a short time. Hell on [Earth](earth.md), violence, war, stupidity, destruction, hatred and greed, [fascism](fascism.md), misery, torture and constant suffering are just some words that come to mind about this time period, middle ages now almost seem like a paradise. How unlucky it is to have been born in such a shitty time. Everyone just wishes he was dead. [Abominations](snowflake.md) walk in the streets. In this century there exists no more [good](good.md), there is just [evil](right.md) opposed by [another evil](pseudoleft.md) and people no longer even know what good means, they only support one of the two evils, thinking it's the good; there are rare few who support some kind of third evil that's not one of the two major evils, but all in all there is nothing but evil. One of the biggest issues of this century is that most people think that good still exists (that it's just "in minority") -- they think fake [selflessness](selflessness.md) is real selflessness, exactly what the media wants them to believe. [Witch hunts](pedophilia.md) are more common than in middle ages now. While in the past only a portion of population were slaves, under today's late stage [capitalism](capitalism.md) the whole population has already been enslaved. People are [tortured](marketing.md) constantly, since birth until death, every day, at their own homes. People are absurdly stupid, and everything is getting much worse every millisecond.
In 21st century there are already long established offices whose sole purpose is to ensure people cannot make use of useful ideas (see [patents](patent.md)). It is also possible -- and actually extremely common -- to draw a rectangle on the ground and then buy a paper that makes it possible to bully anyone who enters that rectangle, even kill him. Whole [Earth](earth.md) is now covered with such rectangles, it is impossible to set foot anywhere else -- in fact if you want to live, you have to buy a paper that gives you your own rectangle where you won't be bullied if you fall asleep, but you have to continuously pay for that paper, i.e. you are doomed to slavery just by existing. In 21 century it is forbidden to shit or urinate if you have no money in your pocket, without money you are OFFICIALLY supposed and expected to hold it until your bladder explodes and you die in the street -- if you're in a big city and you want to shit, you cannot do it, you may only pay for someone to let you take a shit in his house. Also in 21st century you cannot eat food that is next to you, that no one else is eating and that will be thrown away, and that even if you're starving -- it is called theft and you will be beaten for it, maybe even killed. In this century you can also no longer drink from rivers or lakes, they have been poisoned so that you cannot drink at all if you don't have money in your pocket -- doing the same with air is already work in progress, major cities already have borderline unbreathable air. Never ending torture is part of everyday life: for example every day you are forced to stop sleeping very early and go perform [slavery](work.md) that you hate deeply, the whole day you are continuously targeted with repeated brainwashing ([ads](marketing.md), news, social media, [fear culture](fear_culture.md), industrial noise, ...) that equate psychological torture. In 21st century every [joke](jokes.md) has to be preceded by 35 disclaimers, apologies to anyone who might find the joke unfunny, to the corporations that hold ownership of the words that the joke borrows, warning that the font may cause epileptic seizure, waivers of any responsibility for anything the joke may cause, threat to anyone who would think of copying the joke, attribution of all people in history thanks to which the joke is possible, several ads for sponsors of the joke and warnings about the pure coincidental similarity between any real life concepts and the concepts used in the joke -- after reading this you don't even want to read the joke anymore. But people have conformed to it, it is now standard. There are many more things like this but trying to recount them all would result in many thousands of billions of volumes of books.
The hardest thing to do among all this [evil](evil.md) is not turn evil yourself, whole society is pressuring you to it every single day and that is why everyone has given in.
Maybe most depressing of all is that people reading this article think it's some kind of [joke](jokes.md) or exaggeration while it's in fact just an exact, accurate description stripped of any propaganda or fake optimism. They think it's a joke or sarcasm because they can't accept they REALLY live in such world, it's better for them to cover the fact with laughter as if it then made it not real.
21st century is a horror, devoid of all humanity. No sincerity exists anymore, only fakes, as everyone is seeking some kind of [capital](capitalism.md), no art is sincere anymore, no soul is present in any craft, there is no place for soul among pure self interest -- despite the world being filled with bright colors and infantile pictures, it's like a world full of creepy clowns, cartoon animals are dancing all around in ads and movies but you know it's all just soulless robots beneath the shell, something aimed purely at taking advantage of you, at raping you. They will torture you to death with a smile on their face.
Human is dead, he was replaced by [economy](economy.md). There are just things such as economy, laws, [rights](right_culture.md), countries, prosperity, [justice](justice.md), [correctness](political_correctness.md), then also more economy, money and prosperity, "progress", [modern](modern.md) technology and many other things, but no human. You dislike what you do and think it has no meaning? Shut up and serve the economy -- that's the OFFICIAL justification to any complaint. You are suffering every day agony and want to kill yourself? Yeah it's not ideal but shut up and serve the economy. Next: your kids are dying and are being raped every day? Yeah that's maybe not so good but anyway, shut up and serve the economy. Next.
There are now plants that could possibly end the world hunger but in [capitalism](capitalism.md) corporations can own biological species (see *plant breeders' """rights"""*) so these plants' DNA is now someone's property and the plants are forbidden to be grown by people so that hunger is sustained so that business built on top of hunger can be sustained. This is not even concealed or controversial anymore, people can do nothing about it -- there are children starving, chewing on truck tires in garbage dumps, there is food for them but they mustn't eat it because a rich faggot needs to be a tiny bit richer so the child is left to perish, that's just standard life in 21st century.
Literally in your living room, in your pocket there is constantly an annoying retard telling you to [consoome](consumerism.md), you pay him to invade your life and constantly bother you. Is this believable? No, but it is happening, no one even thinks it's weird lol.
In 21st century if you buy something there is only about 0.03% chance it will work. There is probably some law that says that if you buy something it should work, but in practice there are no laws because even if you could probably sue the seller, it would mean investing $100000000 and about 10 years of every day going to the court to get your $100 back, and the result isn't guaranteed anyway because for your investment you'll be able to afford maybe 3 lawyers while the corporation will have about 100 to 100000 lawyers, it's very unlikely you would beat that, so you just won't do it, you will just keep buying the thing over and over and praying it works. The exact breaking rates are fine tuned by special departments so as to not make people give up on buying the thing completely, but to make them buy as many of them as possible. This is basically completely optimized [capitalism](capitalism.md). Even if the thing works when you buy it, it will at best last maybe 3 days or 3 and a half days. It's similar with [work](work.md) (slavery) -- in theory there is some kind of minimum wage you should be paid but in practice you'll be very lucky to even be paid anything -- again, you could in theory sue your employer for not paying you but you can't really do it -- if you come naked or in bad clothes to the court you'll be automatically ruled guilty and since you have no money because the employer didn't pay you, you can't afford the required $1000000 suit, so you can't sue anyone -- so laws de facto only exist so that law makers have a job, they can't be used (well they can, but only by corporations). { I personally have this experience with computer mice -- I bought many mice this way because they just never worked, eventually I just gave up and stopped playing shooter games, I realized it's better to learn living without a working computer mouse, otherwise I would just spend all my life savings on them. Lol also recently I got a paddle board for birthday, it exploded in a week. ~drummyfish }
{ Sorry I just realized the previous paragraph is maybe written about 3 to 5 years ahead -- I sometimes do that because I see into the future and I don't want to rewrite this too often. Anyway it still falls under this century. ~drummyfish }
Still in the [1990s](90s.md), right before this shit of a new century to come, we had high hopes, great things were being discussed and envisioned for this new era, we thought surely if not all of them, then at least some could become reality. Absolutely NONE did. Here are some examples of what we thought the new century would bring and which it failed to deliver because of [capitalism](capitalism.md):
- Curing [cancer](cancer.md)?! [No](no.md).
- New manned missions to the Moon? Maybe even Mars and other planets? Space travel becoming common? Starting to establish colonies on other planets? No.
- Discovering alien life? No.
- 4 day work week? Maybe even [no more work](ubi.md)? No. On the contrary, there is MORE and more [slavery](work.md).
- Uniting relativity and quantum physics to finally arrive at theory of everything? No.
- Birth of great men and geniuses, scientists and artists like [Einstein](einstein.md), [Turing](turing.md), Tolstoy, Goethe, [Euler](euler.md), [Tesla](tesla.md) etc.? No.
- Solving world hunger? No.
- Cloning dinosaurs, or at least the mammoth or something? No.
- Free healthcare and education for everyone? No, on the contrary -- less of it.
- World peace? Eliminating violence? No. More of it.
- Flying cars? No.
- Hoverboards? No.
- Eliminating aging? No.
- Better computers, video games, better music, movies, technology? No. On the contrary, everything is infinitely WORSE.
