  It’s easier if you don’t consider them people

Of course you’re not hated! You’re enforcing that they like you.

Also, “good for the people” is entirely subjective. You’re also enforcing your opinion on them. The harm it does is changing their opinion when it doesn’t suit you. You’re treating them less like people and more like plants: you prune away what you don’t want them to be.

Which, incidentally, also makes a mildly fantastic tie-in with what Phin and Agatha are up to in your garden…

Was this comic’s universe inspired by Fallen London by any chance?
- Aria
  
  Nope! I’ve never heard of that one. I used to talk about it a lot more when I was on twitter, but the majority of KC’s like, overarching world systems and themes springs from my obsession with angry gods due to a horrific pentecostal christian upbringing lmao

    I DEFINITELY recommend you play some of the games/read the lore/interact with the subculture. It is strange and magnificent in a way rarely seen. The Judgements in particular as how you describe the stars was what caused me to think you were inspired by Fallen London
