"METAVERSE”, is a term first coined in the dystopian novel “Snow Crash” in 1992, describing a virtual reality-based successor to the internet where people interact through avatars within a vast digital landscape, accessible via VR goggles.
Let’s learn about why Zark Muckerberg chose to adopt the name “Metaverse”:
—> The Metaverse of “Snow Crash” is a totalitarian tool of domination, manipulation, mass-surveillance, mind-control, and dehumanization created by the techno-religious corporate elite—masquerading as an easy way to escape from a dismal reality—that ultimately destroys society and the ecosystem.
—> “Snow Crash” is computer software functioning as a virus that "crashes" the minds of humans. The Snow Crash virus is the ultimate form of mind control that bypasses free will, rewires human cognition, and directly alters the neurological structure of its victims, reprogramming their brains on a fundamental level, reducing them to obedient tools of the ruling elite.
—> In the Metaverse of “Snow Crash”, people use avatars to conceal their true identities, while the real world outside crumbles into a wasteland of corporate slogans and mindless consumerism. Individual autonomy dissolves within a sea of artificial existence. Privacy becomes nonexistent, and constant surveillance turns every moment into an opportunity for exploitation.
—> Ultimately, as traditional governments disintegrate, the ecosystem is destroyed, and humans are turned into mindless robots. Society fractures into hyper-capitalized enclaves ruled by the privatized security forces of corporate giants. Lawlessness reigns, and the marginalized masses are treated as disposable cogs in a commercialized machine. Empathy is eradicated so that only profit and control remain.
