Last year, it was Russian bots; this year, it's Chinese bots. So much debate gets dismissed under these labels, shutting down common sense. Of course, such bots exist—but so do American ones, and, in reality, every country and even corporations deploy them in some form. Sometimes, I wonder what could truly unite the world. Sadly, it often seems like only a global catastrophe—something as extreme as an alien invasion—could bring humanity together. Religion, politics, and countless other factions keep us divided. Even race, which should be a meaningless distinction, has been weaponized. I've always believed we are one race—the human race—but at times, it feels like we've drifted so far from that truth. When you take a step back and see the whole picture, it's enough to make anyone with a heart just sit down and weep.
