Time to wake up!

Time to wake up folks.

Mankind is more brainwashed to day than ever in history.

When the small guy points that out, he's suddenly crazy,

No one listen to the crazy guy!

More and more people start to wake up and see through the rose coloured glasses the big guy puts over our eyes.

When too much of the population starts to question the reality of things, it becomes a big problem.

This means the system that was meant to make sheep so the big guys can live comfortably and stay fat.

But if this system starts to fail it becomes a problem.

The big guys quickly get together to figure out a distraction for the population so the clean up crew can put things back in order.

*Distraction*

The biggest woke people suddenly disappear.

What happens when there are too many woke people?

The conspiracy theorists take all of this and add it to their collections.

Suddenly people are realizing that these conspiracy theorists are on to something.

The system isn't on your side. It seems like it's on your side if you do as you told, sheep.

The ones who seem to get the most out of the system has learned the cheat code and know how to work the system.

The ones who know how to work the system are your best friend.

What better way to take out the system by playing the system at it's own game.

The system needs sheep for the world go round.

Learn to break the system and make it to the top.

Tell no one of your plans.

Honestly, the system leaves it point blank in your face of how to not be sheep and to make it to the top.

There are two kinds of people in the world,

Sheep and the Wolf.

Which one will you be?
