[P] Anyway, yes, strap me into The Experience Machine! I've suffered enough, thanks. Also, if you're neurodivergent you should play Ultima VII, it's very cathartic. You don't even need to kill anyone other than some provably evil Dark Triad monsters. Your ultimate pacifist weapon? Dirty diapers. They work against everything, even grumpy dragons who're mad about you disturbing their nap. Well, that and sleeping potions.

[P] There is no reason to refuse happiness or accept that suffering has any value. This is an alien perspective to hiverarchy, who believe they MUST suffer to one day earn... something? Said with a dismissive wave of the hand. It's fine just so others who aren't like them suffer MORE. That's hiverarchy. "How about we work to mutually eradicate suffering so that no one has to?" And hiverarchy makes a shocked pikachu face, so confused.

[P] "I'll get a big house & fancy car one day, maybe a yacht! I just gotta work slavishly hard for charismatic monsters who don't know or value me! Yeah, that's the ticket!" They're brainwashed from birth to believe they have to earn worthiness from a Dark Triad monster. They're the Fellowship, bowing at the feet of Batlin and The Guardian. And this is why I love Ultima VII so much, the Avatar's too neurodivergently moral for this shit.

[P] "Worthiness precedes reward." At no point in history has this ever been true, for anyone. Is Musk worthy? Bezos? Can you find me a worthy billionaire? Such a creature doesn't exist as, in truth, deviousness, a killer instinct, a lack of empathy, and being born into money precedes reward. Yet hiverarchians believe this! They genuinely, sincerely believe that they might one day achieve wealth through worthiness. Insanity.

[P] The Fellowship is a perfectly satirised depiction of neurotypical hiverarchy as I understand it. A corporate organise devoted to immoral greed, ran by charismatic monsters whom all are chattel to. The philosophies of this organisation are nightmarish, yet they are the exact philosophies that the philosophical zombies, the homunculi of hiverarchy live by. The one we contend with today is so illogical and patently false...
