    Eh, we DIDN’T invent government. Government invented itself to control and exploit us. They do so to the degree of our tolerance levels and the level to which we are manipulated.

        I don’t think quoting a bunch of slave-owners and misogynists who did none of all that is proving the point you’re trying to make.

      no, we did invent the government, or do you really think that for however bad this is, the literal warlord nobility that predates it was Superior?
