Everything is always the same and you don't need to think

Like, now everyone's stuck with loans and mortgages and forced to toil away their lives to pay for them. Oh. But back in the Soviet era, everyone was always struggling with housing, with waiting lists, and like, what's the difference between waiting 20 years or paying a mortgage? And before that, the "liberated" also paid tribute to their landlords for the rest of their lives (for some reason, degroinsects are joking about that from a cartoon about ancient Egypt). And before that, a serf was just a slave (rabat is a fortress in Arabic). Slaves will argue to the death that the word "slave" doesn't come from rabat. Well, etymology is a highly political issue, just like spelling. So there you have it. Like, in any case, civilization needs slaves. Again, paying a slave more so he can keep a wife at home and reproduce doesn't mean slavery has disappeared. Well, it's obvious that if you're stronger/more cunning/better at zombifying, then you'll eventually have to turn someone else into the rabble. And there will always be menial labor. Light: I fucking hate sorting trash, it's literally a nightmare, the job of a garbage collector. Also, light: I dig and eat from the trash, it's a thrill, I'm in prime time. It sounds like a paradox, but we must remember that light is the smartest creature in the universe. We need to look at the structures: in the first case, civilization is parasitizing on you and forcing labor on you. In the second case, you sabotage capitalism by not paying for burgers even if you have money. Like, there are eternal themes and eternal goals, for example, to produce "benefits" worth a billion (while destroying a trillion), to earn a million and live like a lord. Or even to actually become a lord (or baron). But this is written into the system and doesn't undermine its structural foundations. There's the silly question of the genesis of magic. There are several options: Everyone has magic, but it was learned as derivatives of turtle magic. There was the first vampire, Dracula; everyone else is just derivatives. There were the Ōtsutsuki, who learned to devour life energy, and all chakra users are descendants of the Ōtsutsuki, meaning they're also derivatives. I don't like the idea that magic can't be acquired independently and that you have to fork someone and become a derivative (yes, I stole that word from finance and still rape before I kill). So, all the ideas that magic requires derivatives to spread are lies and a provocation, designed to encourage people to follow a path that doesn't work.
