As I recently said to a friend: “I fucking hate being right.”

And he said “I fucking hate you being right.”

(he was never in disagreement, he just still had a sliver of hope)

    The final lesson of the movie is important.

    The sociopaths ending the world will never be satisfied, and they’ll win because good people have too many rules and too much good faith. It isn’t the failure of decent people, hug your loved ones, be happy and content as the sociopath capitalists can’t be.

    The greed class will end the world for our species, but unless you let them turn yourself into them trying to beat them at their own monstrous propaganda game, and you can’t beat them as they revel in lies and cruelty like decent people can’t, they can’t force you to be as empty, hateful, and insecure inside as they have to be to need so much affirmation and power(capital).

    They have no friends, they have no loved ones, they have no trust, only associates and threats and assets and “big moves.” They see their own children as investments in legacy that they cast aside when they fail to become hateful, greedy, ambitious little clones of themselves.
