These guys are sinister. They’re like evangelicals. They’re so happy.
Maybe it’s just that we’re unhappy. We’re used to being unhappy. We think that it’s the only way to be.
We’re happy unhappy, in other words. Whereas these guys are happy happy.
But this is Organisational Management happy, which isn’t the same thing.
They’re full of normalcy bias. They’re pretending things are normal. They’re acting as if the world hasn’t ended, essentially. The whole system … The whole thing …
Maybe we’ve just got apocalyptic bias.
God – I can’t bear it. Like we can all get together and just pool our resources. Work for a better fucking world, or whatever. When we just want the world to end. Do they realise they’ve merged with a bunch of apocalypticists?
They’re after us. They want to destroy us. Our joie de vivre. They want to live on our life – our philosophy. We’re philosophical batteries to them. Thought batteries …
You’re going to have to save us. You’re our new leader. You’ve got to lead us out of the labyrinth. You’ve got to stand between us and them. You’ve got to be the lightning conductor.
I want to run screaming from the room.
Go on then – run screaming.
That’s part of why I want to scream – because I can’t scream. If I could scream, I wouldn’t scream.
We need to spike our drinks.
Perhaps they’ve spiked ours.
Scary.
This is like the satanic inversion of philosophy. All that’s good and true and right, turned upside-down …
