    “And so you see, fellow travelers, compared to an infinite universe in which every person is a star, and we are all stardust, you see that the very idea of slavery is a bunch of bourgeois bullshit cooked up by The Man to keep us from loving each other, by dividing ourselves into “master” and “servants”, when in truth we are all tools to this machine called Capitalism. To be free of the machine, we have to break it. And to break it, we got to stop feeding it, man."
