We are a slave society, we believe we are free, but we suffer the effects of savage capitalism, according to psychiatrist and writer Luis Gutiérrez Rojas.

We live conditioned, we receive impacts from industry, marketing and advertising that make us desire things permanently, which puts us in an infinite wheel of dissatisfaction.

Savage capitalism leads us to believe that happiness is having things, possessing superficial material goods.

On television, on radio, on the internet, on the street, we are constantly being hit with the message that we are not enough, that if we want to be happy, if we want to be complete, we need to buy things.

We need to consume, not only the material, but also the experience, travel or aesthetics, gyms or surgery make us slaves. slave of the material that we believe will make us happy.

There are other things, according to Dr. Luis Gutiérrez Rojas, that can make us feel good, such as the love of a loved one or the love of the family.

We do not know who we are, we do not know how we are, nor what makes us happy, we are slaves because we do not have self-knowledge.

Many people argue that modern society is obsessed with consumerism and has become a slave to material goods. As economies have developed and living standards have improved, consumerism has become an increasingly important component of modern life.

It is true that advertising and marketing can influence people’s purchasing decisions and create a culture of constant consumption. This can lead to the accumulation of goods and the belief that success and happiness are closely related to the possession of material goods.

However, it is also important to keep in mind that each person has a unique way of life and priorities. Some people may value personal experiences and relationships more than material goods. In addition, there is a growing movement towards minimalism and sustainable living, which shows that many people are looking for alternatives to the consumer culture.
