Distracted Masses

Distracted Masses is a character from the future manifested through the collective consciousness of those reading George Orwell's 1984. Neither male nor female, the fictional Distracted Masses character is an androgynous representation of those distracted people who have become mentally numb to the reality of the day. He/she/it/they is/are an individual(s) acting as an organization, a corporation, and unaffiliated groups of both the dead and undead. They are the future potential outcomes of the Citizen's United ruling which gives corporations the same rights as, and often even more rights than, actual human beings. These futuristic manifestations of the collective conscious have accumulated into a single entity which simultaneously live in the past, present, and future. Bordering between the real and the unreal, Distracted Masses lives within the internet on Facebook, Twitter, and other social media sites . . .
