The rat king metaphor

society is just basically a decaying ball of rat king
The rats decided to
intertwine their tails
feeding until the bigger rats
get enough strength to pull
the smaller ones in the direction
they want to go, and dragging
them to their death
until other rats feed off
the dead small ones and get
their tails locked in and eventually
while they leech off the dead engulf
the ones that lead the writhing mass
of cannibalistic torture
Thats how society is,
feeding off the achievements of eachother
until its a writhing mass of shit.
