What is the system?⁣

⁣

- By definition (thanks Google): a set of things working together as parts of a mechanism or an interconnecting network; a complex whole.⁣

⁣

It's not some evil mysterious force in the sky... it's in all of us!⁣

institutions, organisations + individuals, no one is exempt.⁣

⁣

Why are we talking about it now?⁣

⁣

- the failure and inherent faults in the system are coming to light for the wider population⁣

- it's a well-known concept in academic circles and activism but not in the mainstream because it's not something those in power want us to know about!⁣

- people are just waking up to it - and you’re already here and learning!⁣

⁣

How does it affect you?⁣

⁣

- School, media, family, religion⁣

- Conditions us + seeps into our subconscious⁣

- We’ve been conditioned to believe all of this so we need to unlearn it!⁣
