Description
Normal 0 MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 In Chapter One, the author explains Plato’s allegory of The Cave, and suggests that we, like the prisoners, live inside a movie theater watching total immersion 3D movies that we believe are real. He explains the difference between Human Children who sit in their seats watching the movies, and Human Adults who have left their seats - like Plato’s prisoner who is freed from his chains - and wander around the back of the movie theater. "At a minimum, a Human Adult has become aware there is something “wrong” with the life it has been experiencing through the total immersion movies and is not willing to accept that “reality” at face value any more. In the classic 1976 movie Network, news-anchor Howard Beale expresses what a number of new Human Adults feel when he rants, 'I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it any more!'"
