People love dreams. Digital is the latest advancement (...books, radio, tv...) in dream-amplification. A technology that facilitates shoving one's WHOLE head right up into dreamland's funky orifice.
The problem is that people disappear into this hole. And disconnect from reality. Like drug-addiction and schizophrenia.
And they insist that it's all kinds of wonderful, to be all sucked up into dreamland like that. But it's actually really messed up.
(And of course it's vastly popular and profitable too, so it's considered right and healthy and everybody encourages it)
It's a problem that's been creeping up on us for a long time. And at every stage people have noticed how bad it is.
One cure would be a better dream-amplifier. I guess that wouldn't really be a cure tho.
Another cure would be something better than dreams. Free sex maybe.
