Stockholm Syndrome

I think that this is the biggest threat to our health nowadays as people show an alarming loyalty to the the state that holds them captive. As it is a self preserving response to identify with that which holds an abusive power over them, we can see why people won't give up their cheap flights... cars... or even their shitty jobs. They invent justification for their submissive behaviour and defend consumerist society, even though it has led to greater dissatisfaction and physical and mental illness due to the unnecessary complications of modern life. We need to simplify. And survive.
