Hi
The whole sentence is: One can interact more directly and honestly within politics, business etc., but if you want to play the games as they lay, you will manipulate and pursue self-survival.
--- So it means: ...but if you want to play the games as they are ...without trying to be a better person, then you'll manipulate just like others do it?
