Do you think that every issue can or should be solved?
- Yes, we can only improve the world by abolishing the present and create something new from it.
- The evils of this world must be removed!
- Sometimes change is necessary, but sometimes it creates more problems than it solves.
- Change is but more work which will lead to nothing by the end but more sorrow. We must persist and survive within current boundaries, and make the most of what is.
Do you accept that which is given to you?
- No, I first try to see if there is a better alternative
- We cannot allow this horrible world to consume us, we must resist it!
- Sometimes working with what exists is useful, as overthinking only leads to stress and inefficiencies
- Independently of wether it works or not, it is the norm and must be followed under all circumstances!

- Ill follow along, even when I disapprove of something, trying to push for small changes along the way.
- I swear absolute loyalty and do not break nor question rules. They are made to work, afterall, so why question them in the first place?
What's your favorite color?
- I like colors that you do not like.

- This question is irrelevant.
Your in maths class. Your teacher asks what is 1+ 1. What do you respond?
- One would assume that such a petty question must result in the number of 2,but then one would be misguided when it comes upon the actual understanding of mathematics. It is most definitely irrelevant what the equations achieves, instead, we must conduct a philosophical analysis. We we look at 1 + 1, we initially assume that the answer is two. However, there might actually be two answers, two, and the existence of two individuals called 1. We must isolate these individuals and then aks what they are. 1=1 one might assume, but where does the individual that forms itself come from? Must it no rather be a second one, or is it treathened as second individual. Both might look like ones, but both are still single individuals. As such, you can't say one is one without remembering that you are…
- I must question dear teacher, how is this any relevant towards helping my fellow comrades?
- I think it's 2, but ill quickly check the equation on paper. If it's wrong, ill tell you. Do not tell me what the answer is until ive found it out.
- 2
You look around yourself. You notice men in poverty, while you yourself enter the metro. What are your thoughts?
- While I can't myself anything to fundamentally change these people's lives right now, the systems that perpetuate this madness must be abolished!
- Thinking is irrelevant! *You go to the empoverished and give them some money, food and water, in addition of a short talk to cheer them up*
- Ill give em a coin here and there, maybe donate some money. But hey, there isn't much else to be done here, it is how it is.
- These people are here because they've surely just done something wrong, drank too much or went on drugs. Ill send them good luck and enter the train before it departs - need to reach work to produce my bread!
