Escapism Pt. II

Episode 193 breaks down the escapism. The tendency to escape from daily reality or routine by indulging in daydreaming, fantasy, or entertainment.  An inclination to or habit of retreating from unpleasant or unacceptable reality, as through diversion or fantasy. It is blatantly obvious how escapism has become a vital coping mechanism for the majority of the masses. Escapism has allowed the average person to create an alternate reality, in which all of their hurdles, mishaps, missteps, setbacks, stressors, tension, and worries can momentarily disappear. Escapism comes in the forms of alcohol abuse, celebrity worship, drug abuse, fantasy sports obsession, food addiction, gambling addiction, music, online shopping, prescription drug abuse, porn addiction, promiscuity, social justice movements, sports addiction, internet addiction, television worship, and video games. Rather than face reality, we’d rather hide by using a myriad of coping mechanisms. With today’s hoax pandemic, we’re witnessing firsthand, how escapism has only worsened. We are witnessing the moral decay of society, worldwide. We are witnessing a world in which alcohol and drug abuse are surging. A world where crime, domestic violence, and violence have surged. A world where prescription drug abuse and overdose are surging. A world where suicide is becoming normalized. We need to wake up and face reality. Our lives depend on it. Our children's lives depend on it. We die for lack of knowledge. It's up to The Most High's righteous people to warn those around them about the world's evil, wickedness, and idolatry. It’s up to The Most High's righteous people to share the wisdom, knowledge, and understanding of The Most High. Without the Laws, Statutes, and Commandments of The Most High, we'll only continue to be given calamity throughout our lives. All praises to The Most High.
