Based on what you read, why is the “Taker society” accepted?

Quinn introduces the idea of Mother Culture into Ishmael, as the driving force behind the accepted Taker theory of how things came to be in the world. In effect the antagonist of the novel, Mother Culture actively brainwashes us from birth, through everything including teachers, television, and money. That Quinn personifies this force is important, since it stresses that the ultimate danger comes not from any one person in power, but rather from a powerful force that humanity has created and to whom we are now enslaved. To break free requires us first to recognize the nature of our captivity.
