Little do most people realize that they’ve already taken that; as they spend more of their life with literal strangers working for and to advance not just others, but even what may as well be gods in far off places and in sky scraper mount olympuses, living decadent lives off the work and ruin of others, who trade their time in life and the life and experiences of their children, to be raised by regime goons instead of their own parents or at least their mother who is also serving another man/person.
