Acharya Prashant critiques the current state of society, describing it as a destructive system that functions like a cancer. He argues that the existing world order is responsible for massive environmental destruction, noting that human-driven extinction rates are hundreds to thousands of times higher than natural rates. He asserts that the current social, economic, and political structures are built on the foundation of human ego and must be completely dissolved rather than merely reformed. He uses the example of a vegetable vendor to illustrate how individuals are victims of a hellish system that exploits them under the guise of social utility.
