>All human existence may be sorted neatly into two categorizes: accepting how things are, or struggling to attain the power necessary to change them. From this stems two unique kinds of fundamental loser: the one who accepts how things are and never strives, or the one who strives yet ultimately fails. It is only a small pocket of successful individuals who violate this phenomenon, yet they too play into it, as their success always arrives at the expense of all other individuals. It is from this the inherently evil nature of human existence (as well as human society) surfaces, and thus the yearning to accept things as they are and the struggle to change them is doomed to continue eternally.

realize that, once you’ve achieved freedom from the double-bind the passage begins with, the invocation of “evil” is nothing but a last ditch attempt of an ascended soul to keep you beneath him

but the clincher is that most of (You) are not clever, tenacious, conniving, or unscrupulous enough to achieve freedom
