Perception Genocide

The gradual destruction of one’s ability to see or feel things authentically, usually caused by overstimulation, comparison, and the constant hunger for “more.” A silent collapse of real experience—where meaning is replaced with desire, and clarity with noise.
After scrolling through curated lives and filtered truths all day, I couldn’t even enjoy the sunset. It’s like I’ve gone through perception genocide.
