The other half tends to be stuff like random people, or some "punishment" for some perceived transgression or whatever. But it's fucking insane how often it does just start with not being able to afford basic medical care.

Just realized that as I watched Cinema Summery on "Would You Rather" where he's basically like yeah she has no choice but to join.

      Yeah, I don't think Squid Game is trying to do "equality and non-discrimination is bad". It's doing what we do here with libs, it's that meme with the drone sent by a woman or whatever.

      Plus the DPRK character is badass and the main guy has flashbacks to the strike where his friend died at the hands of riot police when the masked dudes come in. Making the allegory very clear lol.
