Ancients would have been offended only from people getting more of what they want in certain specific categories like sex. Not outside that.
-
I think that’s just plain false? People have always been offended by other people having things.
-
Even if individuals are envious of neighbors who get more, still most would long grant that a world where all get more is more heaven-like.
-
People considering such a world go into far mode and what they say is determined by who the world is affiliated with. Heaven good, corps bad
-
But once real Gods rule corps, people can go back to seeing what corps make as heavens, right?
-
Depends who the gods are affiliated with, natch
