Technology Turned Us Into Zombies

Raphael Terra

This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS). 
 
Generations blame each other for the state of the world. Kids eat a daily course of mobile phone apps and social media burgers. News is reduced to fake edible sound bites. Television and movie stars are modern day photoshopped gods. Illusion and delusion are all around us. Marketing magic created to control and manipulate the stupid masses. 
 
Reality TV stars are elected and glorified to greater heights as charity and care workers are forgotten. Zombies walk the streets desperate to find a Wi-Fi hotspot and an awesome place to take a selfie. Kids today need to find safe havens from social media attacks where their grandparents needed to find bunkers to save them from bombs. Hard times no longer means poverty and starvation, it means not having the latest fashion, mobile phone, game console and followers. An older generation wonder what all these new gender designations mean and how anybody can be fluid. They wonder why these youngsters don't want to work for a living and despair should we ever have another world war. 
 
Today the last generation look upon the so-called Millennials and wonder where they went wrong. In this book, we are going to find out that we are all Millennials and how to change.

Blackpilled - Masculinity Media...

Meadhbh Park

Incels – involuntary celibates – are often cast as violent, misogynistic loners, consumed by resentment towards women. With shocking tragedies like the 2014 Isla Vista killings and the 2024 Bondi Junction stabbings heightening fears about the threat they pose, understanding this phenomenon has never been more crucial.
But it's important not to view incels as aliens who came down to earth on women-hating spaceships from a distant women-hating planet. Though their belief system – referred to as the 'blackpill' – is no doubt extreme, they haven't constructed it from nothing. These young men are shaped by the media they consume and the society that surrounds us.
In Blackpilled, Meadhbh Park takes an unflinching look at the incel movement through the lenses of masculinity and media studies. Drawing on interviews with incels across the globe and analysing cultural touchstones such as The Matrix, Fight Club, Taxi Driver, Euphoria, Joker and Blade Runner 2049, Park uncovers the origins of their beliefs and what they really think. She also examines potential ways to help incels break free from the nihilistic and hate-fuelled grip of the blackpill.
With extremist misogyny on the rise and governments debating whether incels should be labelled a terror threat, Blackpilled delivers urgent, thought-provoking conclusions that couldn't be more timely.
