i like the mc bc he's honest abt how he feels. when the ml put him on the same level as the ppl who bullied him, it weirdly gave him a sense of "liberation" bc for once, someone didn't see him as beneath them. the ml is literally at the top of the food chain.
the ml is stupid and out of touch, but to the mc, he's everything he wants to be.
a bit cliché, but y'all clearly haven't experienced extreme poverty to be talking like that. yeah the mc is a pushover twink, but that's what u do when u barely have any money or power to protect urself. u kiss ppl's asses and hope for the best.
