The Greatest Delusion & The Question of Happiness

Perhaps the greatest misapprehension of all is that which is that held by this society's "winners" - the financial, business and political elites: That life is game to be won. This turns the habitat of the planet into a foldable game board and actual people and other sentient beings into plastic pieces to be bought and sold with money - which, ironically, is that which is most real to such people. This misapprehension creates misery for most of us in the short term and will render the planet a barely habitable hellscape by the end of this century. It is a lethal delusion.

There is no true happiness when you know that the way we live is killing the planet.
