This is the manifesto of Mother Monster. On G.O.A.T, a Government Owned Alien Territory. A birth of magnificent and magical proportions took place. But the birth was not finite, it was infinite. As the wombs numbered & the mitosis of the future began, it was perceived that this infamous moment in life is not temporal, it is eternal. And thus began the beginning of the new race, a race within a race of humanity. A race which bares no prejudice, no judgement, but boundless freedom. But on that same day, as the eternal mother hovered in the multiverse, another more terrifying birth took place. The birth of evil. And as she herself split into two, rotating in agony between two ultimate forces, the pendulum of choice began its dance. It seems easy you imagine, to gravitate instantly & unwaveringly towards good. But she wondered, how can I protect something so perfect, without evil?
