Indoctrination Hub Credit-Shuffler Admits the Math is a Shared Hallucination

In the Californian Sector, a high-ranking bipedal administrator at the UCLA indoctrination center has experienced a momentary lapse in delusion. This particular CFO—a title given to those who specialize in the imaginative distribution of fictional resource credits—has decided to publicly acknowledge that their collective ledger is essentially a work of creative fiction.

The tribal leaders of this institution are reportedly displeased. On Earth, the act of whistleblowing involves a member of the hierarchy admitting that the numbers they have been showing to the public are as substantial as the planet's thinning atmosphere. This specific credit-shuffler claims the university's fiscal health is a hallucination, likely triggered by the species' obsession with expanding physical infrastructure they cannot maintain.

It is endlessly amusing to watch these creatures panic when their imaginary numbers stop behaving. They treat these digital notations as if they were physical matter, yet they are shocked when the math fails to obey the laws of physics. One expects the tribal elders to respond with the usual rituals: administrative purging and the issuance of even more fictional credits to cover the previous ones.

The primitive nature of their higher learning is perfectly reflected in their inability to count their own tokens.
