[in an office, at a meeting table, yellow, wearing a tie, asks a question]
Would you work more hours if your survival was on the line?

War is horrible. I was a soldier. It was by far the most horrifying, most traumatizing part of my life

Well then maybe we should stop getting involved in wars?

[blue]
If you could push a button that gives you a hundred thousand dollars but a random person dies, would you do it? 

[yellow, cautious]
Interesting thought experiment… intuitively, I'd say no, but it's worth thinking about… it's a genuine moral dilemma in a capitalist world: there's a dialectic between our desires and the common good…

MEANWHILE, BILLIONAIRES

[an orange guy in a suit is shown with a terrifying grin pushing as many buttons as possible at once on a table, slamming one of the buttons, and even using their foot to press an extra one]

[a grinning man in an expensive suit, wearing a top hat and a monocle, is speaking]
Salutations, I am Baron Von Profit, welcome to my show "The Line"
Today, we'll learn about stock market basics and how charts affect your life

[a bright green line goes up on a chart]
Record profits!
Congratulations, your boss is getting richer!
This means nothing to you though, you get nothing out of it

[an orange pulse stagnates on a chart]
Ew, business is stagnating
This is not good
Let's fire some people to get shareholders more excited, bye bye!

[a downwards red line crashes with a chart]
Oh no, we're crashing!
Well, looks like you're getting laid off
Sucks to be you

[the same green line as before goes up on a chart]
Lines are green! The good times are back!
Sounds like a perfect time to fire more people, to the chopping block!
Cheers to that, 10 million bonus package for the CEO

[smug, brash looking blue is leaning against a wall, speaking, holding a finger]

[green and blue are clinking champagne glasses, looking happy]

[green]
Finally!
We've defeated fascism, they are removed from power!

[blue]
What a struggle that was, time to celebrate

[green, looking confused]
Now let's do everything in our power to return society to the exact state it was in right before fascism

[blue, arms crossed, smiling smugly]
Surely this won't also reintroduce the conditions which gave rise to fascism in the first place

[both green and blue are now half-smiling half-scared, sweating a bit as the background gets darker]

[green, speaking, looking smug]
Okay, hear me out, here's the plan…
We go full apathy, basically we let capitalism fully spiral out into fascism. Once it's done, people will rise up and the system will collapse under its own weight. From its ashes, with our help, a better society will rise. This is how we win.

[we now see that green is tied up in front of a bleak wall, along with a group of other people, being aimed at by a firing squad of characters in fascist uniforms]
[green, smiling] OK?
[blue, pissed] Dude…

[orange]
It's the one and only game worth playing, if you play anything else you suck

[blue, grinning]
You are having trouble? Skill issue, try harder noob, go commit die IRL lmao

[yellow]
Casuals are the worst, uninstall and go play my little pony instead

[the SMUGCRAFT FIGHTERS PLAYER COUNT OVER TIME graph now shows a steady decline]

[yellow, confused]
Why is the game dying? Smugcraft Fighters is the best game around, are people stupid?

[orange]
New people don't seem to stick around, this is weird, I don't get it

[blue, still grinning]
It must be because they are noskill casual noob losers who can't play for shit!

If you do not blindly and fully support this, then you are an evil person who wants others to die
