yes, maybe they just lived in a too poor country and should have seen the signs and move to a civilized one way ahead instead.

No qhat shouldve happened is that the fucking lawmakers shouldve been hung from old oaks with spears through their chests, but no we have to have police and protections for the rich and powerful. The fruits of civilization are many but the wood is infested with parasites who hid behind laws and their dead god.

you sound like you want to fight anti-civilisation with a non-civilised aproach, but thats not gonna do it. as you wrote "infested", i strongly believe that becoming evil when fighting evil only helps evil. what comes next after you hung some of who you thought should acompany those oak trees for a while? you choosed to believe that would solve the problem for now, didn't you? what would really happen (in case you dind't just wanted to deathwish them only to experience that parasites are immune to deathwishing)? even when youre not going to jail for some reasons, you then have achieved what? wouldn't there be another one to fill that position* who "thanks" you for helping him into it? but how would that "thank you" look like? well as you would have removed the previous one from his position and you were the "friend" of the new villain helping him into his new position, that beeing a friend immediately turns into a threat to him as soon as he 'has' that position and you're not welcome any more but an enemy to take down unless you start to work with your new skills for that villain to do other dirty work for him and become another evil instead of helping against evil.

*(where "position" is anything someone can hide behind by law)

those hiding behind laws will always be there until those laws are adjusted, the persons might change, but the possibility of hiding behind laws would still be there and attract villains, the bigger the villain, the more attractive those laws are to him.

try to control your anger first and become really good at it or you might end up beeing controlled by some villain using your anger for his own purposes (do you watch tv btw? do you get manipulated by it?)

maybe step back and become a scientist instead who analyses the parasites how they do what and how they could be really be fought one day without beeing just evil but not achieving anything. and a scientist that helps others becoming parasite analysing scientists themselves.

if you find another civilized aproach that works or at least should, plz tell me.

Dont worry about me being manipulated, between the autism and overwhelming disinterest in most people its pretty much impossible to fully control me. Also I dont watch TV I mostly read and play old games. Anyways that was moreso me just venting my savagery a bit, as well as being annoyed that I cant take the rather direct route of my ancestors, got a problem with politicians and other clans no problem just butcher a generation and raise the next. We answered only to the king who was usually a cousin and if they did a stupid we also killed them.

Just a bit of old world blues and my rather inate savagery kicking in. I still believe that those politicians and their allies deserve a quick and brutal death though.
