You paint reality in such a sobering way.

The control regime stole this idea from our minds and replaced it with the lie that our existence entitles us to nothing.

Ooofff! This line hits deep for me. Talk about a story we're all unconsciously participating in. How chilling. And it's humbling to notice how much that story is programmed into me. Perhaps this sense of scarcity is also due to the negativity bias that we evolved from when we were hunter-gatherers. Then the fear of being eaten by a tiger turned into the fear of not having enough, the fear of Others, the fear of being unsafe and surrounded by threats (i.e. the masses). An unchecked negativity bias combined with the power to control and influence seems to be a core part of human history.
