I can never bring myself to make a work that’s not morally ambiguous. I don’t even like playing a morally upstanding MC as a good thing. My impulse was to exercise him of it with complex situations. I’ll write pieces of shit (e.g. I like to use collateral damage to get back at people I don’t like), but it’s because they’re pieces of shit for one reason or another (see: not their inherited nature).

I thought about trying to write a morally simple novel and couldn’t bring myself to do it. Best I can do is “these capitalists need to be stopped”
