I'm saying everyone would be blind and suppressed from natures reality. They would be embryonic robots. There would be no real emotions like anger, hate, sadness. There would only be mood stabilizers, propaganda literature, fake shits and giggles. Like John the savage I do not want this con of total peace.
I agree with the savage on this point. I need to read tragedies, I need to experience everything in life, I don't need my world and feelings dictated to me.
