Sorry for the critique on form instead of content but man, this is hard to read. Putting periods where commas belong or where a sentence should be rewritten for clarity is an obstacle to easy comprehension.

Wow. I was wondering why I had such a hard time reading this. Now that you say it, you’re spot on – it’s the text equivalent of stop and go traffic.

Indeed - starting every sentence with a conjunction is very jarring.

Was this written by AI? I stopped after the second paragraph. Too much cognitive load.

Not to mention the sentence fragments.

It's the confluence of sales and religion. With these rhetorical tools, everything is a sales pitch. And when everything is a pitch, all conversation is commerce. A new world. A world where hype becomes real and reality is your plaything. We call it Xchange. Xchange your reality.
