Spambot - One heck of a sucker to hold on to!

"They measure their esteem of each other by what each has, and not by what each is." Ralph Waldo Emerson

You know one of those hopeless moments when you reach out for some kind of help/support; or maybe asking for help by posting something. Then, all you get is a response from a spambot. Suddenly, for a fleeting moment, you feel like you're heard/loved. Weird, it might sound. But weirdly real & true it is. 

You start to think: WTF! Spambot seems more human/real now? Wow!! That's truly reassuring! Really? I don't give a damn as long as humans don't give a fuck about another human! 

Maybe it all boils down to one thing: who the fuck (how popular) you are than what the fuck you are/have. It's a shame to hang out with you (even to accidently like your posts) whereas it's a prestige to hang out with the popular.

"It's your 'complex' speaking, mate." "Oh, really? Check the 'elephant in your brain' first, bruv." "What?" "Never mind."

People are smart enough to (beautifully) avoid you and clever enough to stay with/around someone popular. And they name it: "networking"! So, fucking, dope!! How human/humane of them! You know what? Fuck you! 

Fuck the SEO, fuck the keywords, fuck the hashtags, fuck the algorithm, fuck you and fuck me. But thanks to you spambots. Long live spambots! Blessed are those who are avoided by humans and loved by spambots. For that's one heck of a sucker to hold on to (at times) than those fucking fake humans. 

Whether anyone understands it or not, I'm just leaving this quote here for anyone who really cares. Nah. Not a single, fucking, soul will be here except me. So, this is for me, for myself:

"What this world needs is a humanistic awakening of the desire to raise one's life condition to a place where our actions are rooted in altruism and compassion. You cannot hide behind a profession or instrument; you have to be human. Focus your energy on becoming the best human you can be. Focus on developing empathy and compassion. Through the process you'll tap into a wealth of inspiration rooted in the complexity and curiosity of what it means to simply exist on this planet."  Herbie Hancock
