reprehensible

I watch cable TV because I'm in prison ... I get to hear commercials that they put on television which in 2025 are even more absurd and stupid than they were when I was a wee lad. " There's always something new under the sun " ... This is actually an abhorrent inversion of the truth. This phrase comes from Ecclesiastes, or maybe it was a common phrase in Rome and was jut borrowed by the author of the book, who's name I can hardly spell. Qoheleth ? Something like that. It should be, " There is nothing new under the sun " ... "nihil sub solus novum" ... To me this is uniquely disturbing to hear in a commercial. It mocks me the corporations are lying to me that I live in a rosy world of novelty. But the truth is, its all bread and circuses. Since ancient times there has been nothing new under Sol. This inversion of the ancient adage , to me, it encapsulates the falseness of this ... dome of consumerism. A glass window that I press my face to from the cold sidewalk of incarcerated America simultaneously I am disgusted by the delights that fatten the masses while people on the fringe suffer all manner of indignities ... yet also I can't help but on some level to lust for the contentment, the opulence ... the amenities created from the life force of the dispossessed and the bone meal of a dying planet ... " Dubba-dubba dubba-dubba dubba-dah " . All day long I'd biddy biddy bum. And yet ... The villainous wealth advertised only reinforces the original version of that saying, " There is nothing new under the sun " , and so this particular commercial is a poignantly repugnant eyesore of hypocrisy in my eyes . Tired eyes, no better off for this rote insight, no less a dog to be crushed under the hooves of the rich ... even as I scamper madly to suckle also at the golden teats of ancient greed. Truly ... reprehensible ...
