Immediately after I typed that last reply to you, it clicked. I am definitely familiar with that concept. For some reason, it slipped my mind. Beaudrillard was a big proponent of the concept. It's been a while since I've read him though.

To some extent, we have been in hyperreality for some time. it wouldn't require everything that I mentioned to come to pass for us to exist in hyperreality, but it will facilitate our passage into that next phase, without question.

Beaudrillard - that’s the one. Simulacra and Simulacrum or whatnot. I’ve only read references to it, but it seems to be true. Most people are normies, living their lives in a prison built for their minds already. If the Media were to start broadcasting that “All Traditional Catholics Are A Threat To Society And Must Be Eliminated”, there’s a good chance the majority would just go along with it.

That might be an exaggeration, but not by much, and not for long.
