a book called The Giver
Has anyone read this book? We read it in school at like grade 6.

Society is under a nanny state and it's implied they can't even "see color" anymore because of what they've been allowed to see and the "food/drugs" they are forced to take which is symbolic of the ideas they are allowed to have. 'The Giver' is a person responsible for handing down to one person per generation the ideas and thoughts that society has banished (which is most of them). Are people really going to feel better when everything is mind numbing shades of grey? When did we stop learning from our ancestors and enjoying life, even the parts that make us uncomfortable, and settle in to just being content with flavorless and colorless shadows of ideas?

The sooner you realize that the government and its Judeo-Christian administrators, who are also the owners of state-actor organizations like BlackRock, know what's best for you, the sooner you can live a happy and rewarding life as one of the chattel livestock belonging to the Chosen Ones.

Honestly i'm just watching the freight train of life barrel through the walls to destruction and enjoying it, not much i can do either way.. We will come to a header soon that's for sure.

Live your life for now in relative safety and comfort and worry about the rest when it comes and buy any porn games you deem you need asap as they might be gone soon.

I find no comfort in the face of censorship. I wish the pearl-clutchers trying to ban and de-platform fiction would simply leave me alone, but it seems that's too much to ask.

Are you feeling ok? The owners of Blackrock are a matter of public record, they're not 'the government and its Judeo-Christian administrators'.
