The truth is that you are a slave from birth, the truth is that the system uses you to steal what you produce, the truth is that there is no democracy and you are just a piece of meat for Matrix, a battery that Matrix uses to feed itself, that is the truth, and only by being aware of it will you be able to escape.

And the truth shall set you free!
I don't entirely disagree .. but I'd describe the situation differently: humanity forms a large interconnected system. And many of the severe problems we face come from the fact, that we allow for too large and powerful organisations (states/companies/..) to first exist and then - even worse - to become corrupted and develop their inherent dynamics.
The problem with too powerful and corrupted organisations is: they have the power to ruthlessly translate and enforce the sum of all the billions of small egoistic behaviors (that are just a fact of human nature so condemning them is meaningless) into horrific actions that none of the individual people, behaving - rightfully so - egoistically, would approve.
Example: the collective push of billions of people for small prices, aggregated and amplified and distorted through powerful organisations, leads to instances of terrible exploitation, like child labor, that (almost) noone would actually want.
