I hate it:

I hate it.

The constant need to look at videos.


The constant need to look at reels.

The constant need to look at Tik Toks.

So easy.

So meaningless.

So unnecessary.

And yet we’re invested.

We’re engrossed.

We’re captivated.

By what?

By nothing.

By bullshit.

By garbage.

Our apps pushing us nonsense.

Why?

To stay on the app.

To stay connected.

To stay up to date.

We’re always up to date.

We’re always on.

We’re always connected.

For what?

For what reason?

For what purpose?

Why do we always need to be connected?


Why do we always need to be hooked?

Why do we always need to be addicted?

Why?

Because.

Because social media.

Because the internet.

Because of hacking desire.

They want you to be sucked in.

They want you to be connected.


They want you to always be on.

That’s how they work.


That’s how they operate.

That’s how they make money.

Capitalism.

Incentives.

Psychology.

How do you question it?

Social media?

How do you understand it?

How do you control it?

You can’t.

You can’t appreciate.

You can’t understand.

You can’t see it for what it is.

It’s eating you.

It’s destroying you.

It’s killing you.

Get out of the vortex.

You will die in it.

You will collapse in it.

You will destroy yourself with it.

I hate it.
