It's tragic that world is not interested in K's profound understanding of human condition, his diagnosis of humanity's crisis is not profitable for the intellectuals, and people who are making money by being life couches, annalists, podcasters, and so on. But almost everyone is talking about how humanity is pass of destruction.
