Nothing is real, even if it is.
Everything we do is self-serving, even nice/kind things.
There is no objective right or wrong and anyone telling you otherwise is either a fool or lying.
All communications at their core are manipulations, and therefore, every time we communicate with another person, verbal or non-verbal, we are manipulating them.
Oh yeah, and life is fucked.
If you want to know more read the Goddamn book.
