Response to A Good Friend

 
Did you see the movie The Island? It’s a great metaphor about what’s going on now. In The Island movie the zoo owners were cloning people and brainwashing them that the reason why they live in this bunker was that the world outside is polluted. They also had this lottery, who gets to go to The Island. People were working there in this bunker where zoo owners regulated everything… Until one man there became a skeptic and started to ask himself and others questions and started to realize inconsistencies in the "logic" of the system. He figured out that those who win the lottery don’t get to The Island but instead get butchered for their organs…

And, The Island story ends like all other stories where people are brought to the point of realization that they are just being manipulated and used
