This is just the latest battlefield in the Culture War we are fighting free-for-all.

most people forget that Cuban missiles followed missiles in Turkey, who can say who really started the madness?

"bombed indiscriminately" that is hyperbole, indiscriminate bombing is not taking place or there would not be a city anymore (not that I don't deplore any loss of civilian life)

not really, but it makes us hypocrites

yup, seems the dominant voice on this on HN thinks the West has a moral advantage (it doesn't, Yemen Libya Guatemala, etc). Most people don't seem to know the difference between what we are seeing in Ukraine and a real Total War (

the official goals are "demilitarization" and "denazification", As far as demilitarization goes, it seems the Ukrainian fleet, air defenses and bases have been mostly destroyed by stand-off weapons, and an encirclement m

and now the real question becomes, does that change anything relating to the truthfulness of his past positions?

we've been watching for 20 years as the "West" ate itself for foolish reasons, nothing our governments say is true anymore. We are not in the same civilizational project, I guess you just don't realize it

We're never getting back all the calories burned for this, our civilization peaked in the year 2000 i'm afraid

I'm on my third attempt to get (kinda) the same game out in 10 years, I actually have a shot now (better design, reduced scope, better effects, loving companion). But sometimes I wonder if Jeff Vogel might be right when he says "p

2M people die every year in the USA, is that more than any other event in History? such lunacy

"the outcome of objection is death." 99% of the population recovers, maybe you are engaging in hyperbole?

There's one with Fauci doing the same XD The Clown Timeline might have been the last Cold-War era weapon, a doomsday weapon.

I had been reading RPS (Rock Paper Shotgun) a video-games review website until 2015 or so, then it all... changed. It's a lot less lively there now. I fear that HN has been on that road since about 2017, the Zeitgeist has changed, or m

hear hear, HN is one of the rare places where the Culture War is still fought in a relatively chivalrous manner. Maybe this is the place where the Future is born? The Culture War is a philosophical one, and only philosophy could stop it.

"A lot of people seem to like getting rich even it means some of them wind up poor /shrug" wouldn't be that bad, but replace "some of them" with most of them.

We've been living in the Clown Timeline for 20 years now, no sign of it changing so far... "Here! look at that shiny thing!"

I support Human Rights, but our problem then becomes the Power/Violence required to enforce those Human Rights. We're so fucked in this Clown Timeline(tm)

"In any case, no need for outright racial hatred of a whole nation." Ooof, so many levels of paradoxicality. It's like words have no meaning these days. - "In any case"? like ANY case? (bit pedantic but still) - &qu

That has to be one of the most uplifting things I've seen in a long time! The common answer to the world's problems these days is more along the way of "just have an idea, then fund it, then sell it and then I'll be happ

It clearly isn't a character-based story. But the aliens aren't clearly our foes, males and females do good and bad, and it explores some themes in relation to the "Great Leap Forward" and societal hierarchy that weren&
