Whether or not people care enough to do something is the first and most important factor in determining whether it works or not.

I only have 176 open now because I accidentally closed them all a few months ago and couldn’t get them back.
We’re not? One of our parties may be significantly less sadistic, but they both exist to lock the American people into a life of servitude for the rich. Our votes won’t get us out of fascism, they’ll only let us choose 4 years of “good cop” or “bad cop.” We’ll have to actually be okay with making our overlords mad at us in order to escape, and that includes the media; if the news is on your side, you can be sure the rich people who own it aren’t sufficiently concerned.
There’s plenty of lists online that’ll give you a good rundown of the popular ones, but my absolute favorite is a hidden gem called Steambot Chronicles. It’s got so many different things to do packed into it, from fighting with giant customizable robots to playing a bunch of instruments with unique rhythm mechanics, to hustling pool. Plus the storyline splits based on dialogue choices you make, leading to a few different endings including a couple where you join the bad guys. It’s just a really fun game that I’ve played more times than I can count.
People who are capable of feeling guilt for hurting others would never do the terrible things required to achieve such a position anyway. It’s the way they make sure only people who are part of the in-group get that high on the ladder. At best, Elon sees us as insignificant specs that don’t even register in his brain. At worst, he hates us and actively enjoys making us suffer.
I find it easier to think of it like bad eyesight, rather than a disease. We usually think of diseases as things that eventually go away, especially when there are medications for them, and that doesn’t happen here.
Some people are born with good eyesight, and they can see everything clearly right from the get-go. Some people can’t, and they need the external modifier of corrective lenses or, no matter how hard they try, the world will be blurry. So, they wear those corrective lenses every day just to function in the world.
Taking meds for ADHD is more like that.
