Our world is actually pretty bleak. People lose their humanity and money comes first. Life is all about consumption, we lack compassion and decency. The world lives according to the laws of the jungle, where every man is for himself.
The planet is constantly changing, as is the society in which we live. Modern society is very developed at the present time. We can easily travel from one country to another and communication is now more efficient than ever. The food industry has also reached a level where no one should have to worry about starving as long as we have the financial means.
But unfortunately, not all changes are good for us. Although we don’t realize it, they make us slaves to false “gods” like money or our own ego. Work has become routine, and money rules our lives. It is sad that human relationships have become a rarity and the virtual realm has become the main concern of many people. Vices developed and diversified, and people’s morality declined.
To better describe these sad problems of our society, we propose some very suggestive satirical illustrations. Some of them are shocking and even painful, but sometimes this is the only way we can open our eyes wider to see and understand what is happening around us and how serious it is.
Here are 25 images that reflect the bitter truth of our lives:
#01. A good student must be…
Children must obey what the teacher says and kill their own creativity.
#02. Emotions are only on social media
#03. Kids cannot go to school without Facebook these days.
#04. Showcasing humbleness for personal glory
This is one thing that we see blatantly happening on social media where people aim to be charitable as long as it’s an opportunity for photographs and selfies. To learn about charity, read the parable about the widow’s mite. Charity isn’t something to boast about.
#05. Sometimes parents don’t allow their children to fly
Parents overdo the protection bit creating a protective circle around a child but it ends up restricting them instead.
#06. Some people become prison mobile games instead of real sports
#07. We have to compromise our life to provide security so others can enjoy
Well, every country needs its defense forces but if you look at it from the perspective of humanity, we have changed as a species. We have to sacrifice human lives so others can enjoy freedom.
#08. For a child, the father is a superhero.
Father is the superhero of every child.
#09. They aren’t jealous now
If other planets were jealous about the state of the earth and its thriving humanity, they certainly aren’t jealous now
#10. Using religion against each other
Being sarcastic and making fun of each other’s religion is the new norm of society even though we stay together.
#11. Sweet Snakes
The shadows show our reality, sweetness by word of mouth and snakes in thought and deed.
#12. Technology rules
Technology rules us in every sphere of life today. Without technology, we would be lost. In fact, many would be helpless without technology.
#14. You decide on good or bad
What you put in your mind is what pours out of you. So good or bad, it all depends on the input.
#16. Learn to accept
And stop thinking these words “If only I had this” or “if only he /she was like that”. Be happy with what you have rather than thinking “if only”.
#17. Be Happy With What You Have
Humans are never happy and it’s always a case of the grass being greener on the other side or wanting someone else’s possessions.
#18. Addiction to Social Media and the Internet
It hardly needs to be said. The internet runs in our blood and we are permanently connected. Almost every one of us is prone to checking our phones even if we wake up in mid-sleep.
#19. Fighting dough with evil.
#20. Every day the Earth turns into the buildings
What was once green and beautiful is just turning into concrete jungles.
#21. To each his own.
#22. We have lost our real freedom with “online life”
#23. Today everything gets on video rather than helping.
#24. Competition squeezes the juice out of children
#25. Don’t be afraid to be different!
