Cosmic Con: From Stardust to Selfie
🧨 Introduction: The Long Con of Consciousness
Cosmic Con is your final wake-up call. It doesn’t ask who you are—it exposes who made you. From atoms to ideologies, womb to Wi-Fi, it traces the multilayered con job that tricked you into thinking your thoughts were ever your own.
This isn’t theory. It’s forensic. It tracks how biology preloaded instincts, how culture hijacked meaning, and how technology finishes the job by turning your identity into a scrollable product. It’s sharp, irreverent, and unflinching.
🚨 Why Read Cosmic Con?
- To understand how your “self” is a construct—coded, not chosen.
- To expose the algorithms, myths, and neuro-loops running your life.
- To reclaim authorship from the cosmic copy-paste job you inherited.
This book doesn't offer a new identity—it teaches you how to spot one being installed.
🔍 Book Structure
- Part I: Biological Hijack — Instinct, perception, dopamine puppeteering.
- Part II: Cultural Cloudware — Rituals, language, myth as embedded code.
- Part III: Algorithmic Identity — Platforms as self-shaping mirrors.
- Part IV: Reclaiming the Edit — From feedback loops to freedom loops.
Each chapter strips away illusion. No sacred cows. No soft landings.
🧬 Core Concepts
- Identity as Interface: You are not the user—you’re the UX.
- Normative Implants: Culture doesn’t teach—it installs.
- Algorithmic Golems: Your feed trains you like a lab rat—with a mirror.
- Biopower Loops: Evolution isn’t finished—it just outsourced updates to your phone.
- Reality Privileges: Every “truth” has an access cost you didn’t agree to pay.
👁️ Who Is This For?
- Radical thinkers, hackers of habit, philosophers in exile.
- Anyone done with illusions—but still hungry for wonder.
- Readers of Glitch and Cosmic Code ready for the final disassembly.
If you've ever looked in the mirror and felt something was missing—you’re right. This book hands you the scalpel.
