"I have X'd myself from your world"
About this Quote
The subtext is a familiar manipulator's move: moral inversion. "Your world" is the tell. The phrase draws a boundary line between a contaminated "them" and a purified "me", recasting society as the real aggressor. Manson frames himself as someone too lucid, too unbought, too separate for the mainstream to stomach, a myth he sold to followers and taunted to the public. Its an attempt to turn incarceration and infamy into principled withdrawal, like a monk leaving a corrupt city, rather than a criminal being removed.
Context sharpens the intent: Manson lived on attention, but he also lived on contempt for the audience that supplied it. The sentence is a controlled burn, a last attempt to dictate the narrative by refusing the premise of judgement. Its not repentance; its a mic drop designed to keep the spotlight, even as he pretends to step out of it.
