Cyberpunk

Our current societal situation

I awake with the taste of steel in my mouth.

I sense the scope of a hidden gaze.

Life seems normal, and yet feels unnormal.

Somethings not right like a clock turning backwards.

Are these thoughts my own or are they secretly injected into my essence? 

Are these conversations natural or are they manufactured?

High tech low life's.

Those words haunt me now.

Yes... I can agree on that...

The fact that a society or civilization reaches a high technological level doesn't always mean... that it will be also developed in so many other things that trully matter...

Technology... can be good or bad... nothing but a tool... it's how we use it...

It can be our salvation and uprising... or our downfall... and destruction.

There are as always... ethical questions...

If Man... loses all ethical behaviour... no matter how developed and advanced technologically...
It will be going... many steps back.

This is my humble opinion and way to look at things... Some may agree others may not...

If... we take a good damn look at the internet... for example... even more the dark web...

We can easily realize how some people use technology the wrong way...

To... destroy, shame, torture, punish, and so on... and so on...
Yes... talking about all the snuff movies here...

Look... they give you a hammer... right?

You can use it to... build a house... or to bash in another person's skull...

As always... tools have no real blame... it's how we used them that really matters...

However for example... Gun laws in USA... even though myself am not American...
I do believe you need a much more controlled legislation...
It really is a damn shame so many lives lost...

On the other hand... in my case for example... If I had a real gun... maybe I would be able to defend and protect my family... Or maybe not...

As always... always two sides to a coin.
