Your people are too selfish to realize that there are better ways to survive. [Lexa would say that they're too "individualistic," but she doesn't think that's necessarily the right word for it. They lack a leader, or a system that would protect them in a situation like that. She can just as easily see how her world would have become a "lawless wasteland," and she imagines that Skaikru actually believed them to be like that.

The Mountain Men certainly did, at least to some degree. It's how they justified using her people like slaves to either turn into monsters or throw away like sacks of meat.]


It explains a lot about you. [Which is a vague statement that could certainly be taken as an insult, but there's no insult packed behind the words or in her mind.

(It's definitely insulting, though.)]
