[[spoiler: The prole in this game, if you pay attention, never actually becomes part of the upper class independently from what they do. He never actually became somebody else or turn popular, it was only an illusion that kept him put so the rich could feed on him and on others who got into that position. They're all the same gullible people following their own pleasures, and the elite takes huge advantage of that.]]
