this writer below explores some of the margins between those in charge and the rest of us as we deal with their failures;
It’s said that truth mirrors fiction. I’m finding this to be the case more and more these days.
Take the 1993 comedy Groundhog Day. Bill
Murray wakes up each day to relieve the exact same daily circumstances
and interpersonal interactions. He relives the same day, February 2,
over and over again.
No matter what he does, the repetitive cycle won’t break. He goes to
sleep, wakes up to his alarm, and it’s the morning of Feb 2 again.
Likewise, in The Truman Show,
Jim Carrey lives in a simulated environment where everybody’s an actor
in a popular TV show except him. For him, it’s his real life. But
although he doesn’t realise it, everything around him is completely
scripted and fake.
If merge these two movies together, they perfectly describe the world
in which we live today. Welcome to Groundhog Day meets The Truman
Show. Let’s call this mash-up The Groundhog Show.........https://www.theburningplatform.com/2019/02/24/were-living-in-the-groundhog-show/
