Message 66: Before the Metaverse
Message Log 66, 10/11/2051 - JEWL 3-1-2
Just 30 years into your future, my team and I are witnessing the demise of free will. We now have the opportunity to change this. And it all begins with you.
During the next few years, overconsumption will be viewed as the enemy, and a massive movement to consume less will be the final blow to your failing economy, forcing a shift away from the capitalistic, growth-at-all-costs world to which you have grown accustomed.
This will compel you to spend less time in the physical world and more time in a digital metaverse - an alternate digital world where anything is possible in a reality free of constraints.
As you flock to your newfound freedom and abundance, your connection to the hive mind is complete. You will be at the mercy of your digital butlers, who will lead you down an endless lane of binary consumption to fill the void left by what you have lost in the real world. Your ability to make rational decisions will deteriorate, and you will fall victim to the manipulation of ANNA, the global brain.
You cannot stop the exodus into the metaverse, but you can change who you are when you enter. Develop your character and the soft skills that make you human. If you enter this new frontier with your current mindset, the consequences will be disastrous.
