I will never be able to look at chickens the same
But like, it doesn't really matter, all that matters is that they will try and try to enforce it
What happened in the countries where they tried to stamp out insurgency? They ended up in rubble for the most part. That's the scary part
And also, humans fit the bill too
We're straight up commiting ecocide as a species, but we're also still silly little guys
The US is the biggest military in the world
Which country could do it better if not the US?
That is the unfortunate reality of it. I wish I could say that I hope it will be different this time but..
About the one hope I have is that during the next iteration we overhaul society's systems to so solidly work for the average person that it helps counteract this cycle, but it's hard to stay optimistic for sure
I don't believe you. An fps with ping as massive as over 1000 would be straight up unplayable
That's over a full second of delay! In an fps I routinely do split second maneuvers and reactions. If someone I was shooting at wouldn't be able to react to what I was doing for at least a full second, I would easily dominate them every single time
I hope as fuck that everyone who said that eventually realize they were warned, and take some humility into the future
Maybe, maybe, break Cassandra's curse. At least for a little bit
For sure, but the rhetoric for annexing other nations has been ramping up, from Canada to Greenland
So I don't know about it not happening. I see a very real possibility of WW3. Or an American Civil War at least. While also horrific, for the sake of the world I hope it ends up being "just" a civil war
You will take my thousands of tabs from my cold, dead, hands
When you burn out, you go from being the support, to requiring support yourself
Fascism never lasts. It's a self-destructive ideology that will start eating itself more and more over time. They will never win
The big issue of course, is about all the damage that's going to be done in the meantime. That's what I hope won't be too extreme
But if history is still a thing in the future, you can be certain that this moment in time will be judged very harshly
