reading a text on post apocalyptic destruction and this knocked the wind outta me "The immolation by indiscriminate area bombing in Asian and European cities, in particular, showed how not only the physical structure of cities, but also the culture of their people (its schools and universities, libraries, art galleries and so forth) could be entirely wiped from existence, a process termed ‘culturecide’ by philosopher A.C. Grayling"(pg 75)
