On tv shows and in movies:
No masks, social distancing or even conversation about covid (generally).
In Reality:
Masks, social distancing and non-stop conversation about covid (generally).
Reality and illusion first merged then separated. Hollywood is now real life and reality is hollywood.
Simultaneously the metaverse is a massive and rapidly emerging industry.
While people argue and go nuts, they are creating a virtual, alternative reality right under our nose.
FAANG (Facebook Amazon Apple Google), went insane releasing everything they could as fast as they could for home entertainment the second covid dropped. They create these non-covid reality movies and shows to get you addicted to seeing people like people used to be. Right on your screen. So when you step outside you assume a mask less, jab less world is an illusion on the screen, not reality.
Nothing new. Same old tricks. If you watch broadcasts from the 70s you realize they have been playing this game for YEARS.
