Ocelot II

58. He really is a sorry specimen, isn't he?

I could almost feel sorry for him if he weren't so destructive. Like you, I live quietly and obscurely and without a great deal of money - enough to get by on in my old age (I hope, considering), but definitely not enough to decorate my place with gold trinkets - not that I want any. I've got some family left, and a few good friends, and some simple pleasures; as far as I know, nobody hates me and a few people might even love me. I've never needed to be famous or adored or flattered, and I'd much rather be me than him. He has nothing and you and I have everything. He's an empty black hole of need and rage; he's never been happy and he never will be. If he ever experiences anything like joy it's just the satisfaction he gets from hurting or humiliating someone else.

I don't know why people like him exist and I don't know why so many other people follow people like him. But the sooner he's gone the better.
