In those days, the courtesans (艺妓) had begun to see themselves as true dignitaries of the State and not mere ornaments or entertainers. They conspired with the eunuchs to rule over the people. But as with all women, they were used and cast down by the eunuchs, and grew old, infertile, and bitter in their lonely palaces.
The Master heard of this and replied: “Many men have no children, but they die young, and their progeny are the songs sung of their sacrifice and nobility. Who will sing of these wicked women? They denied the Way when they denied their nature, and they sought power and station of men but could not perform the virtues of men to earn them. Surely they are the most pitiable and damnable of creatures.”
Some suggestions off the top of my head
1) Democracy being fake and gay
2) Aging thots/ soon to be wine aunts
3) pop culture being frozen in stasis/creatively bankrupt for 20 years and counting
