Historically, blowing shit up, isn't really a fucking positive net for society. Also, again, instead of focusing on the IRA, because you want to completely take a comment out of context, why don't you focus on what I was saying?

I can just as easily say Ireland was/is shite because it had the IRA.

Wow. And I'm sure during that time, that everyone there and around thought Ireland was just FUCKING DANDY.

The terror the media lets out about the US is no different from anywhere else. We are conditioned on knee-jerk reactions. Globally. People still have the power, but they must exercise it. Stop being primed to be at each other's throats and start listening to what people are trying to say.

Your entire anger is in using the IRA as an example. So let me lay this out: you cannot know the necessity of violence and turmoil until the ends can justify the means or not. IE historical hindsight. This was my point: we cannot know which side the US' current problems lands on.

Uh. What conflict lines? Where is my ignorance except where you believe it to be? You have quit listening, and only wish to insult.

Again, my original point, for the final time: saying "X is shite, does not fix anything." It rubs people's noses in it as they try to scrape it away.

Okay. So yeah. This is you being dense, because my argument was never it was good. My argument is that people do horrible shit everywhere, so instead of pretending that it only happens in one place...

Why don't we talking about fucking fixing it everywhere?

Hmm... or Maybe I do, and I'm setting it aside because your entire point was to shit on something rather than do the hard work of admitting you know fuck-all too.

Go read a book on why the IRA came to be, cos you clearly know fuck all. I wasn't even talking to you, so how about you just fuck off.

And clearly you just want to start shit. The point is, there are no clean hands in history. Go back as far as you want. Humans became "civilized" only after countless generations of animalistic behavior. To say a place is shite and act as if that means it also has no merits isn't. Fixing. Anything.

And Ireland had the IRA. Can we not have a pissing contest about horrible shit and just focus on fixing it?

My silly little D&D show is this stupid thing that brings me so much joy.
Imporv, collaborative storytelling, rules and spreadsheets, and then we animate parts of it and it turns into a surreal little cartoon.

So. Now that the Net is fracturing, does this mean the next iteration will actually start the Golden Age? Probably not. Is it possible? Yes. Definitely.

It just requires harnessing the right momentum at the right moments to move forward appropriately - A Golden Age Driver's Test, if you will.

It astounds me how often people confuse opinion and speculation with facts. American education's failed us if we cannot identify or discern truth from fiction. Worst, as one of the largest, most powerful & influential countries and cultures, we risk contaminating healthy systems with our social ills

Just so we're all on the same page: The World is a pretty wondrous, incredible place. Interesting Flora/Fauna. Beautiful Vistas. Fascinating geophysical processes...

But Human systems suck. Good news: we can fix if it we want to try hard enough! Bad news: it's a ramshackle slapdash engine til then

Wordsmith's Log: Imagine a well with enough water for everyone in the world to drink as much as they want/need. This magic well has one catch: if anyone begins hoarding water, it will begin to slowly disappear. Judge your society by how long you believe it would take for the well to begin to dry...

Ah social media: The human equivalent of birds on a power line shouting into the sky. No-one's really listening, but it's a din to pass time...

Also, that buzzing beneath the feet that warns of potential electrocution... so satisfying.

Hmm... pre-'24eve Politics in America foreshadowing/advice: zombie horde survival tactics. Kill the biggest monster (fascism) running toward you first. Then, worry about the horde behind it (status quo). Fair? Fair. We got this. Now lemme sleep 'til April, dammit!
