lets say a wizard has cursed you with a lot of money. you are going to become permanently brain damaged simply by being in possession of so much money. the only way out of it is to spend a lot of money on something ridiculous and not at all useful

you’re missing the point: you, yes, you, reading this right now, can march up the steps and kick the fucking door in if you’re willing to do the work. you can be “local democratic operations”.
