The world would be a better place with loads of weapons and no desire to use them by or against anyone. If we all had WMDs as streetlights but nobody thought to use them, not even the clinically insane, I'd be just as glad.
I'm reading Ender's Saga. The Buggers are the enemy, not the other armies. We're all on the same fleet, working towards the same goal: To save Humanity from the Formix, and here we are killing each other over a game...metaphorically, of course (despite Ender v. Bonzo).
Same thing. Pick a game, or a company: Nintendo is the enemy, Microsoft, WoW, what-have-you, is the Adversary, and here we have a fleet of servers all trying to canibalize each other to be The Hero of the fleet. Even if it means we wind up with one halfassed ship by the time we reach the City Of Etc. Homeworld. |
