Hey now, we just had a plague descend upon the land and drag millions gasping to an early grave, there is perpetual warfare where children are exploded by flying robots, it's getting hotter and hotter, and our minds are constantly inundated with meaningless chaotic harsh hateful noise designed to direct our spending to specific vendors over other specific vendors, and it is for that final reason that all of the stuff preceding it is happening, in a horrifying mockery of all that is just and pure.

We worked damn hard to build this hell, so you better fucking appreciate it, bucko

Like the matrix but all the numbers are just the stock market.
