We stereotype every, tiny piece of society, placing it into a box for easier understanding. The media does this also to place an 'us' versus 'them' mentality into our heads, separating people based off of small, unimportant characteristics. Some recognize this fact, and try to fight the system, but the vast majority are too naive (too innocent) to realize that they are sheep being herded along through life by the western, modern dream of success.
That is: Primary education, secondary education, then college and the career of your choice. This leads to a steady income, family, real estate, and that stereotypical 'American Dream' we are told is the only successful future.
It's all crap. Real life is too absurd and the politicians and executives leading us down this pipe-dream are con-artists of the highest caliber. Worse though, they are slowly but surely headed towards their own destruction, what with splitting atoms that have the potential to destroy the world because some politician wants more than he has and our technology is at the point that he'll get caught doing it.
That, I think, is when we'll learn how to live. People will finally all realize the massive lie we live in daily. Then most will die and hopefully those who learned this lesson will create a better, less corrupt society based off of equality in everything.
TL;DR This oligarchy at the top of our society will crash and burn under its own weight and the people that pick up the pieces will make a better future.
Very pleased to read such an intelligent comment.
Even thought I think it's not that simple. Maybe World Leader 1 wants to have the ultimate atomic bomb because, if he doesn't, and World Leader 2 has it, and if World Leader 2 is crazy, he will threat/blackmail World Leader 1. Then, it's the people who'd end up paying with another world war.

But I definitely agree that we're living in a massive lie. I simply believe that technology went too far for our skill. The world is just to big and complex to function well. There will probably be a last World War...

There will probably be a last World War that will tear all this shit down, and then we'll start over again, like in Mad Max, hopefully towards a better way and with better values and humanity.
