Man, you shoulda been here. The ground was full of stuff to eat, the air was full of stuff to eat, you could drink all the water. Sometimes we wouldn’t eat much for a few weeks, but we’d dance and take drugs and play games and have crazy sex to get through it. And ofc, we always had beef jerky.

Oh, and we did this all day with our best friends, who we never had to leave. It was pretty sweet.

But hey, now there are big pretty churches and supermarkets full of only half-poisoned food and billionaires and AC. Though, the air hurts, the sun hurts, the water hurts, and everything is mostly dead. So, that’s a trade-off. How’s your childhood best friend doing?

Did you send the underage bathroom children home? Not only will you have to adjust each one now, you won’t have children to abuse before bed. That’s not very billionaire of you.

Weapons have been banned before, but nukes are the only things that actually don’t get used. A ban on automous weapons will require the same situation. A country is going to have to kill hundreds of thousands, or millions of people at once, and then everyone will have to stockpile these as a deterrent against use.

Even then, that’s just against other countries. Nobody stops nations from doing anything and everything to the citizens they own.

To your second point about shelling, I disagree. This is different in extremely important ways. These are cheaper to create, easier to run in undetected, and do far far less collateral damage.

They are also a relatively new technology. You could have looked at the first muskets and said "definitely an advantage, but not an insane amount compared to seasoned archers and siege equipment. We can’t really compare unguided munitions in their highly evolved form, to autonomous drones that are just getting started.

The only thing that could have stopped this would have been the lower classes, worldwide, becoming a unified front for the last century or more. These killbots are not only here, already and being used, they will become the default within 5 years. Watch.

None of the world’s governments have lifted a finger in the last year of continuous, televised genocides of civilians, women, the elderly, and children. They certainly aren’t going to draw a line in the sand for unseen killbots that nebulously might be responsible for some civilian deaths at some point in the future.

Not only will these be used in war, these will be used in civilian life too. How do you think the world’s wealthy plan to stay that way?

They know very well that in the past when inequality has risen to these levels, they fall. They know it’s because no guards will chose them over the mass of, now angry, people that the guards were birthed from and spent their lives with.

The killbots are for you and me baby. It is already written.

I love how we call 4 Republicans out of 217 “bipartisan”

The life blood of the mountain. The people who the mountain has chosen as most deserving. Discarded like the shit of a rich-boy college student who paid the equivalent of a lifetime for a Sherpa family, just to have a cool photo on insta for 3 days.

Why was he crawling back? Why weren’t they searching for him at some point before? Because he didn’t have a northface jacket and skin as white as snow.

Everest itself was more compassionate to him than the entire colony of mountain leeches that infest it.

Yeah, a couple of weeks ago mobs were going around kicking immigrants out of hospital and doctor’s offices. I’m not surprised it has escalated.

It should be well far beyond obvious at this point that the entire world, or at least 90% of it, is under the control of a single influence. Every region used to be under the influence of it’s own rhythms. They could be influenced with media and politicians but the influencers had to go with what was happening and just steer within that current. Now, every rhythm has been synched and is being entirely guided.

If there was someone else in his place they might not have survived.

Yeah, all the personal trainer, equipment that costs more than an indigenous climber will make in a lifetime, years of training, macros, protein, and gyms, can give you a body that is 1% as fine as a human being that just hasn’t been turned into a predigested monkey genetically bred to live only in a machine.

It’s like my mawmaw always said “shit gets real fucky when you stay inside.”
