"they're infiltrating the institutions aaaa" then why don't you do the same thing huh

"but my values nooooo" values are for dying with. so perish

"but then i'll become a bad person noooo" funny bcs i thought you were confident in your goodness, turns out it was only contingent on "doing good things"
