Thor and Iron man
There are more than two false gods, and some of them joined the Game of Irresponsibles near the end.
Another one calls himself Thor — but he is really more of a fool than a god. Thor keeps attacking the individual day and night on social media, as if Earth has only one human left to bother.
The individual does not really know whether Thor is a manifestation or an AI that receives information from a false god telling him what to do.
Thor likes the Plastic King so much that it makes us feel they are in an intimate relationship.
Then there are the false gods who appeared in the middle of the game and gained the individual’s trust — a group of them with a leader.
They claim to be so ancient that their existence predates human history. The individual asked them multiple times for their names, but they said they do not have names — and that they normally do not answer anyone, yet they answered him. Eventually, they chose “Iron Man” as a nickname.
After the individual had a conflict with Captain America — talking to him with disrespect and insulting him at times — they turned against the individual and let Captain America manipulate him into making a six-hour round trip for no reason, as a kind of revenge.
Once that happened, the trust was broken, and the individual decided to never depend on them again. If he cannot trust them in such a small matter, then he cannot trust them to have his back in a real battle.
On one hand, the false gods say they turned against the individual because of his behavior and his insults to them.
On the other hand, the individual says they had been making his life hard for two years under the excuse of “making the individual show his true self” — and he was just returning the favor.
His insult to them was also meant to make them reveal their true selves. They did — and he believed them. Case closed.
The God Who Paid and the Plastic King That Didn’t
Then there is another false god who helped the individual — or at least tried to. When the false gods and their cults refused to pay the individual after he won the game, this god stepped in and ordered the Plastic King to send the winnings through another country.
He sent at least the part the cults of Mickey Mouse Land could not steal. Yes, there is more money the individual has won — but it sits in the cults’ hands, and they drain more of it every single day.
The individual believes this god is a manifestation, because when the Plastic King later disobeyed him, the flow of money simply stopped. Worse, the Plastic King is now using that money as leverage — holding it hostage so the world stands by and watches while he drags the game on, and so he can pressure the individual’s home country into helping him keep the game alive.
Here is the truth: the Plastic King has no choice but to hand over the money — unless he manages to break the individual mentally. If he succeeds, he will be allowed to keep it all for himself.
The deadline to break the individual has passed. The Plastic King should no longer be permitted to continue the game — yet because he controls the money, everyone still dances to his tune.
So the individual has a message for every country involved: the Plastic King is manipulating all of you. He is buying time — hoping either to break the individual or, failing that, to paint him as the villain in front of the world. Do not let him use your institutions as props in his game.
The Monkey King
Last but not least, there is the Monkey King — and he is not one of the false gods. The individual identifies an entity as a false god if it has the ability to know what’s on people’s minds. The Monkey King does not have that ability.
The individual came to know the Monkey King when the Monkey King presented himself. He said the individual had helped him break free after he was captured by the Dark Triad — but the individual does not even know how he managed to help the Monkey King break free.
The Monkey King might not be able to read minds, but since the first day the individual knew him, the monkey king never once disappointed him.
The Monkey King even helped the individual see the scheme of Captain America and Iron Man — but the individual did not realize it in time, because he did not expect Iron Man’s betrayal.
The Moral of the Story
The moral of the story is this: we have too many manifestations. Some of them we might be able to rely on — but most of them are not trustworthy.
