No we aren't one cartoon doesn't define you.

Now if you're coding something intentionally addicting and soul crushing yes you're bad.

Ofc. We're class traitors, but also victims. We have slightly more bargaining power (for now) than the average worker, so I think we deserve that much more flak.

Everything can be rationalized away, but if you can answer hate and fear with love and understanding, nothing in the 'Verse can stop us.

I can rationalize the top monsters behaviour back to childhood trauma, and I can see how even the last factory worker can be the same level of responsible as the president of the United States.

The key for me is finding personal responsibility for myself. I was never taught how to take proper care of myself (emotionally mainly), and I think this might be endemic to society. I might be projecting.
