I've been telling [[Moloch]] in the face I'm coming, and they don't seem to pay attention to it.
Maybe I'm like a bug about to headbutt a windshield.

Moloch, after all, seems to be an [[egregore]] which evolved with us. As such they're entangled with human culture and bodies. I don't see a reason to assume they're all bad, nor that slaying it wouldn't cause needless suffering.

Don't get me wrong: you can be weak without being pathetic, and you can be pathetic without being weak.
But I believe [[Moloch]] is pathetic and weak.
