Short persuasive monologue arguing that individual consciousness is a powerful and undervalued resource. The speaker critiques capitalist systems and social media for siphoning creative energy and attention for profit, and advocates rejecting externally imposed rules and media influences to reclaim personal power.
You have a lot of power. You've been programmed to forget your power. So we all have this potential. And the way that the systems in this reality are set up is to basically siphon our creative energy from us. Our attention is currently the most valuable asset on the planet. Social media companies are making billions and billions and billions of dollars through us spending our creative, conscious awareness on these platforms with our attention. So if it weren't for us, the conscious observer observing the content on the platform, the platform would have no value. It would generate no value in terms of profit. Our consciousness is the most valuable resource on this planet. Think about how little it would benefit a capitalist society, corporations, et cetera, et cetera, for us to know our power. I know a lot of really high level people who have experienced an insane amount of success. And they are not listening to mainstream news, they're not listening to mainstream music, they're not watching tv. Ask yourself, who would you be if none of this stuff had ever crossed your path? You have to stop playing by the rules that other people have made for you.
