That happened all the time to us. We like to trick each other.

People are Not Expendable

"Crack a few eggs to make an omelette"

The above quote comes from François de Charette, one of the Royalist leaders of the War in the Vendée, which resulted in hundreds of thousands of deaths.

Up to 200,000 people dead.

200,000 broken eggs, for the traitor Royalists to lose.

But how many times do we hear similar sentiments today, about people in other countries?

Iraq War: 655,000 dead

In comparison, 2,996 died during 9/11

Most of which are civilians, and citizens only knowing that they're fighting an invading military force.

We've been conditioned to think of people who are not like us, who are not in our neighborhoods, our communities, or our country, as "over there".

They're "over there". That makes it okay. Bad things happen once in a while. War isn't totally bad. Some sacrifices have to be made. How many? 1,000? Not that much. 100,000? Unfortunate but not that much. They're just a few eggs.

Don't you dare criticize the military. The government says that's bad.

People are not expendable.

We've been conditioned to dehumanize other people because that's the first step to creating an enemy.

If you don't see them as living, dreaming, loving, people with families, aspirations, hobbies, and homes, that makes it easier to kill them.

And likewise for the low income, low education, disadvantaged people who have been recruited for the military, who will be seen as just cannon fodder.

This is conditioning to support eugenics.

If you can be convinced that people only exist hypothetically, then you can be controlled to do whatever the elite wants.

People are not disposable.

This isn't noble.

This isn't just.

This isn't right.

This is war.

It's easy to water it down because it's not happening to you, and when you say a few eggs have to be broken, you're already convincing yourself that your egg is not included.

François de Charette was executed by a firing squad.

SO.

They just announced casting for Alanna and her two Warders — correct me if I’m wrong, but none of them are in Eye of the World, right?

Thoughts???

Can we discuss how diverse The Witcher was? THIS is how you do fantasy shows/movies. It made the show so enjoyable seeing black people, Asians, little people being respected and having a voice, a disfigured person not being a crutch, women in battle AND on the throne and they did that shit quietly. There was no “our show is woke” tour just diversity, equality and Superman saying “Fuck” with all his heart. I stan
