THE METAVERSE IS DEAD. In a stunning corporate MASSACRE, Meta has begun FIRING over 1,000 employees from its Reality Labs division, confirming the TOTAL COLLAPSE of Mark Zuckerberg’s $70 BILLION fantasy world. The embattled CEO has ABANDONED his virtual reality vision, sacrificing the futures of thousands to chase the AI hype train in a desperate, panicked bid to save his empire.
This is not a simple pivot—it’s a CATASTROPHIC ADMISSION OF FAILURE. Sources reveal Meta is SHUTTERING key VR studios and placing a $400 million fitness app on life support. The vaunted Horizon Worlds, Zuckerberg’s empty digital kingdom, has been exposed as a GHOST TOWN, attracting a pitiful few hundred thousand users while burning cash at a rate of BILLIONS per quarter. The grand vision to redefine human connection has been reduced to a pathetic plan to copy Roblox and TARGET CHILDREN on smartphones.
The human cost is staggering, but the implications are FAR MORE SINISTER. This scorched-earth retreat proves tech giants are not pioneering the future—they are CONSUMING IT, discarding entire realities and the people who built them on a whim. Zuckerberg gambled our collective digital destiny and LOST, proving the “metaverse” was nothing but a cynical stock pump and a surveillance dystopia in waiting.
Now, as he funnels tens of billions into AI, buying talent like some deranged sci-fi collector, one horrifying question remains: what monstrous reality will he abandon NEXT? The truth is now inescapable: your life, your job, and your future are just TEMPORARY DATA in Zuckerberg’s algorithm of endless, reckless reinvention.
