the real villain is the one that lost the battle
or so they say

but the real answer is this:
it is in our nature to search for conflict
only rule being: keep moving and undergo or become static

~~
ah politics:~~
that's nature making sure we aren't slacking on the job
it's all about conflict
**powerplay **
stress resulting in procreating the next stronger version

surviving causes malfunctions: religion was basically a type of anti-body for the mind
like a carrot dangling before a horse to work the land more enthusiastically

as with all drugs, religion satisfies and goes forward albeit it lost its race against upcoming fresh political ideologies
the renaissance being one of multiple instances during history, proves only 1 thing: keep moving forward

which brings us to the next era in evolutionary theory:
all old political systems are basically nothing more than the same conservative stagnant recycled shit soupbowl
once it obtained ultimate power it will obstruct our chances to survive
which result once more like toppling the gov

right & wrong
belongs to the ones who take pleasure climbing the ladder

become anti-politics
let them dance for their paycheck for once

stir that boiling soup until all those conflicting flavors merge to a new flavor offering even better results next time

A pretty high profile movie recently, but Triangle of Sadness fits the bill pretty well

First Reformed is pretty anti capitalist I’d say

Falling Down is pretty similar to Fight Club
