when you sell the people an illusion that is not sustainable, they're understandably not happy when the bubble bursts
but why? it seems like people would rather live the highs and the lows, instead of going on at a constant
you cannot have true social equality, not financially
and yet they all have delusions of grandeur

without knowing it, we've become a society that is obsessed with respecting the runner-ups
as if that was meant to be some kind of consolation
or perhaps a cry against what we feel as a violation of our values
where winning is seen as unhonorable, even dirty most times
perhaps it's because we've become a society obsessed with winning first, so much so at the cost of 'fair play'
a cycle into degeneracy
