Description
Afterlife is the ultimate marketing campaign invented to justify one’s incompetence and irresponsibility in the here and now. It shelves every bad deed with the promise of a posthumous reward, achieving self-satisfaction and escapism simultaneously. This con artist’s invention dangles an invisible future, postponing any real-world improvement indefinitely. It offers infinite hope to believers and perfect irony to skeptics, serving as the universal padlock for every debate. A masterpiece of wishful thinking disguised as cosmic justice.
