The materialism virus on substack

Reworked intro 

Materialism whispers through the veins of our society, an enchanting virus that dances even amidst our collective turmoil. Its origins are woven into the opulent tapestry of the 1980s, a decadent era where the seeds of rapid consumerism were sown by shrewd architects of wealth. Today, this unquenchable thirst for possessions seductively exploits our innermost fears and desires. The siren call of nostalgia for a perfect past ensnares us, keeping us entwined in the seductive cycle of acquisition, oblivious to its ravishing effects on nature, societal harmony, and our own souls. This capitalist-driven allure of materialism turns our gaze away, casting shadows on the marginalized while obscuring the true sources of our societal unraveling.

Sleepless Dystopian has been the home to Cyberpunk Dystopian writer, storyteller, mischief maker, and behavioural digital and data-driven marketing specialist Sam I Am for around 10 years. Mainly, it has been my dumping ground for my half-written, half-baked projects and my ranting of a political nature. 

Now, though, I want to start getting serious here, to make some money from my creative outputs and to offer my services to fellow creatives, activists, and campaigners. 

The idea is to create an Indie Publishing and Marketing service. It is a work in progress, but as a Cyberpunk, I want to hack the systems of undue influence and coercive persuasion, turn them on their heads, and use them for good. 

This site is also a social network, so you can join it for free and join me on the journey as I rediscover what I am doing here with new meaning and purpose.
