Billionaire Reveals Virtual Reality Experience Called "Mainstream Media" by Ms Caitlin Johnstone!
Listen to a reading of this article:
At a hotly anticipated remote keynote presentation on Friday, billionaire Jeff Bezos revealed the details of an exciting new virtual reality experience which he says will allow consumers to log on to an artificial fantasy world completely unlike our existing reality.
"We are calling it Mainstream Media, or MSM for short," Mr. Bezos told viewers. "MSM will allow users to interface with an alternate world of the imagination where capitalism is working fine for everyone, constant military expansionism is normal and desirable, Washington,D.C.s enemies are all bloodthirsty monsters, and billionaires are just harmless job creators. Let us check it out."
Mr. Bezos explained that his 2013 purchase of The Washington Post ensured that consumers will remain psychologically plugged in to a virtual reality in which the sociopolitical status quo upon which his Amazon empire is built looks totally fine and not at all insane or dystopian.
"Unlike the virtual reality enterprises of certain other billionaires, the Mainstream Media universe operates continually and without the need for fancy headsets or equipment," Mr. Bezos said. "In fact, the psychological technology is so immersive that users are not generally even aware that they are not experiencing actual reality."
Bezos was soon joined in his presentation by fellow billionaires Rupert Murdoch, Michael Bloomberg, Warren Buffett and Carlos Slim HelĂș.
"Warren! Mike! Carlos! Rupert! What are you guys doing here?" Mr. Bezos recited in scripted surprise.
"We wanted in on the Mainstream Media universe too," Mr. Bloomberg answered. "Can not let you have all the fun, Jeff."
"With my vast media empire I have been able to alter the outcomes of elections, shape policies and political agendas, start wars and kill social progress in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres," Mr. Murdoch boasted.
"My position as chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway has given me control over dozens of daily newspapers throughout the United States," Mr. Buffett added.
"My holdings in the New York Times give me leverage over the hiring and publishing practices of the most influential paper in the most powerful nation on earth," said Slim.
"By buying up media influence and controlling the publics perception of reality, we ensure that all the systems which have been funnelling wealth and power toward us remain intact," explained Mr. Bloomberg.
"And it keeps the guillotine blades away from our necks!" Slim interjected.
"That is right Carlos," Mr. Bezos said. "By psychologically helping the public to perceive a different reality than the one that actually exists, we can prevent prevent social uprisings which might prove hazardous to our wealth and vital organs."
"So we give the riff raff a virtual reality to live in," said Mr. Murdoch. "Because actual reality belongs to us."
