🦬 The Cruel Side of Life: When Predators Write the Rules
In the African wilderness, a haunting scene unfolds: a mother buffalo struggles through the pain of labor, while lions prowl nearby, waiting to devour the calf before it even takes its first steps. Between life and death, innocence becomes a prize for predators.
But this is not only a parable of nature—it is the blueprint of human society. The calf is the ordinary person, born with hope but trapped in systems never meant for them to thrive. The mother buffalo is resilience itself, fighting to protect what is sacred. The lions are the criminals, the corrupt, the architects of rules and laws bent to their appetite.
Cruelty is not always fangs and claws. Sometimes it hides in polished offices, in policies written to serve the few while weakening the many. Like the lions who wait until the calf is most vulnerable, these system-builders ensure that by the time ordinary people take their first breath of freedom, they are already ensnared.
