You're stuck on the rosy notion that the world operates on goodness, decency.
The truth is, all goodness guarantees you is an early grave.
But the biggest joke of all.
The thing that will sink you every time.
Is hope.
Hope that the world will right itself.
That the just will be rewarded and the wicked punished.
Once you buy into that fantasy.
You're dead in the water.
The only way to survive in this godforsaken world.
Is to take control.
