I submit that the only antidote to propaganda which is capable of curing whole societies, is the conscious manipulation of one's own beliefs and perceptions. We must abandon the desire for objective reality, and instead become masters of our personal unrealities. Great responsibility can only be fulfilled with great power. We must become better than we are. We must take hold of the power of unreality for ourselves.

Exactly right. Neo expressed true freedom when Agent Smith, enraged, asks Neo why he keeps fighting, and Neo says "because I choose to".

Our world is full of people who have been programmed like robots, that don't examine their programming. Freedom from the Matrix starts with recognizing our programmable nature, and learning to see clearly how it's exploited by the system. Only then can we begin to program ourselves.

One of the failures of the Soviet Union is that they didn't deprogram themselves. They defeated capitalism in the material plane, but they remained inside a capitalist consensus reality. Thus, they simply became capitalists.

I believe that a successful socialist revolution requires sorcerery. We must create a socialist multiverse using techniques of mysticism.
