"Oh, you think the darkness is your ally, but you merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man; by then, it was nothing to me but blinding! The shadows betray you, because they belong to me. I will show you where I have made my home, whilst preparing to bring justice. Then, I will break you. Your precious armoury, gratefully accepted. We will need it. Ah yes, I was wondering what would break first. Your spirit, or your body." ~ Bane to Batman

this feels like Darth Vader asking if we read his guides first. :))
the part that really landed for me was your reference to Plato’s cave.
especially this:
this hits. the idea that breaking free hurts at first, and that some people stay chained because the light feels hostile. there’s truth in that. a very big one proven so often by history.
overall, it’s a lot to take in. the work is thoughtful and you clearly poured a ton of time into it.
thanks for sharing and the mention.
