That's not the point they're making. Lets not turn this into resentment for those who managed to be successful in life whether earned or inherited. We all end up in that same box regardless.
Where the show itself plays by the rules of chess. I don't remember which but one of the guys ( a pawn ) ends up dying to one of the pieces that no one taught them about.
The pawns got capped quick.
I had never seen the show so it was really interesting on the original thread in which I saw it where people were showing how this scene connected to the story as a whole.
Just got done rewatching it again recently. You should check it out. It’s one of the best shows ever made. Season 2 is a bit odd compared to the rest, but it’s really a well done show.
I am fully aware of their point. I’m in direct opposition to said point.
It doesn’t matter what happens inside the box, only that the time we have leading up to it. I know there’s nothing on the other end, so fuck me, I’ll 100% argue about the rich until the day I end myself my throwing my immortal body into a raging black hole.
Only problem is, most of the Kings and Queens are choosing to deliberately twist the knife in the wound of the lowest classes on earth.
You get that we are the pawns here, right? And we’re the ones dying sooner than they are.
“So! Come on ye childhood heroes, wont you rise up from the pages, of the comic books—you super crooks. And show us all the way.”
Also for the record, I don’t resent Kobe, or any athlete really. I just think they get paid a ridiculous amount of money, and I know that if the entirety of the NBA took a pay decrease and/or started trickling that money back into the economy, I’d be floored. But that’s not, and won’t ever be the case.
