The Matrix Reloaded: Fake It 'Til You Break It

"The Left, with Marx its original prophet, has always warned that, as a system, capitalism strives to turn us into automata and our market society into a Matrix-like dystopia. But the closer it comes to achieving its aim, the nearer it gets to its moment of ruin, very much like the mythical Icarus. Then, after the Crash (and unlike Icarus) it picks itself up, dusts itself down, and embarks upon the same path all over again."
--Varoufakis, Yanis. The Global Minotaur (pp. 17-18). 

Yes, THAT Yanis Varoufakis.

Breaking Globalization. Visualized.
Compliments of the attention deficit Idiocracy
The roller-coaster ride to oblivion:



In order to really break something, you have to drop it several times from high altitude. This should do it.
