Anyone with 2 brain cells can figure that the world is bent, you just have to manipulate the system to fit your needs because really, you have to accept that nothing really changes. People always want power and those with power are going to want to retain it and thus do things to ensure they do so. If you look at the British Empire we were running the world for years doing shady shit, I mean we went to war with China to essentially create junkies. The difference is is that you guys have only been running the world since 1945 so you get all excited when you find out things are not always how they seem. In reality this perfect world that, in my eyes anyway, the people who, again in my eyes, are more idealistic on this forum are looking for will never exist. The world works on behind-the-scenes agreements, shady deals, and working by doing each other favours and scratching peoples backs when they scratch yours.I don't think cynicism is a sign of sophistication. I think it is a sign of fatalism which is a philosophy I cannot stand. People who accept the status of the world never change it.I am not naive Limetless, I have made considerable quantity of money by understanding the world better than most others. Usually that would be thought arrogant in polite society, but since there is an actual numerical value backing it up, it is simply a fact.So I return your question with a question. Why don't you care so much?
