    I came with the same excerpt as your first.

    I disagree with the bit about the king, though, because like the monarchy of the UK, he’s largely there to force us to bow to the jackal and vulture gods of capitalism. Now we have a choice. Will we sacrifice ourselves and children to those false gods, or make the necessary choice of perhaps more difficult sacrifices to the more merciful egalitarian ideals? We may never realize them, in any lifetime. I suppose that largely depends on how much the collective values themselves over capitalists.
