“Krista asks,"What is it about society that disappoints you so much?"
Elliot thinks, "Oh I don't know, is it that we collectively thought Steve Jobs was a great man even when we knew he made billions off the backs of children?

Or is it that we voted for this? Not with our rigged elections, but with our things, our property, our money.

Fuck Society."
