      But they feel free to imagine that for someone like Hitler, this purge can't happen until he's been imprisoned for longer than the age of the universe, and the process of having to change enough to no longer bear that karma feels like being burned alive

      You might be into Adam Cadre's game Endless Nameless I still think a lot about him using the Lower Realms from Buddhist mythology as a metaphor for fiction and involvement in discourse surrounding fiction, leading to his decision to quit doing it

      He directly says being an Internet troll is the equivalent of being in Hell, that trolls are denizens of Naraka, not even truly sentient or alive, just insatiable loci of hunger and pain that corrupt everything they touch and must be sealed from the rest of creation to protect it

      (And the people who seriously consume and discuss fiction are the preta lota, the realm of hungry ghosts, who are capable of understanding true life and desiring it but can't participate in it because they aren't real enough)

      (And those who genuinely create fiction are the asura lota, the realm of demons, with powers enough to defy the gods, who can warp the world of the senses at will to satiate any desire)

      (But the asura are in a realm *below* ours, not above it They torment humans because they envy us, because we possess the capacity to escape samsara and they do not Because it is only through weakness and humility and suffering that it is possible to truly change)

      For an asura to become capable of nirvana they must pass through human life first They must surrender their power and their identity and become mortal, vulnerable to harm, vulnerable to death It is a threshold few of them can bear to cross Their great power is their prison

      This is, in this context, Cadre deciding that while his plaudits for creating great works of interactive fiction did in fact make him better than the trolls and critics he was trying to rise above, it wasn't making him happy and it was time to quit and go outside

      It's funny how many of these ultimately come off as both self-aggrandizing and pity parties :P

          I meant more like...the stories that storytellers tell about being storytellers are often sort of vaguely contradictory (ironically in a very Bojack-ish way sometimes?)
