Going through my exobrain, I found a note about this post that got my attention. Rereading it with more history under my belt and in the mid-2020 sociopolitical context, I came to wonder if it intentionally (if indirectly) calls out a pattern of abuse in history leading to the current state of patriarchy, white supremacy, and American “democracy” among others? Or was it simply an observation on a quirk in a children’s game that just happens to be more broadly applicable than it first seemed?

As much as I would like to claim to be very insightful, I was mostly just thinking about how the children’s game works. Sorry!
