    The ultra powerful see us as NPCs, and nothing more.

    Your anger is barely a pop up window on the game they’re playing.

      I mean, tbf we kinda are. If they are willing to lie, cheat, steal etc., but meanwhile nobody is willing to oppose them, then we aren’t players in their set of strategic moves.

      The only thing required for evil to flourish is for good people to do nothing to stop it.

      Yep, Muskrat is playing Frostpunk and completely ignores anything that doesn’t make him money.

      Edit: Actually, not a very good comparison. Because in Frostpunk, you are actively fighting for your survival. Elon probably doesn’t even know what that means.
