Ah, you're right, I see now, boiling down Marxist critique into "can't control emotions" and "only wants money" while celebrating the individualistic ramblings of a lead-poisoned imperial despot, is a much more rational outlook.
Systemic issues aren't real, you just gotta stop thinking bad thoughts and suddenly the crushing oppression that Aurelius was writing in defense of don't matter.
Yes, this was all meant to be taken literally and with 0 sarcasm. I'm sorry, but i cannot continue with this conversation. The supernova of brilliance that is your intellect is blinding me. Have a good day, friend.
You too, mate.
