“The idea that those who have so much and those who have so little can grow together is a pathetic illusion. As the former becomes richer, the latter becomes poorer. Wealth is not absolute; it is relative. Everyone pretends to be unaware of this, but deep down, they must know it's true. That's why they deceive and harm others, plunder from them, clinging desperately to the exclusivity that ranks them 'winners.' What on earth are they doing? A world where the corpses of countless poor lie beneath a handful of monstrous victors. They call this horrendous barbarism 'freedom.' Read the banner. It says 'self.”
