    It doesn’t matter if we defeat this one. They’ll just try again and again and again until it sticks.

      Infection is a natural part of existence and the human organism has to fight against every infection, whether familiar or not. We’ll just to have to take our bodies’ example.

        they make us fight and fight and fight until we are haggard and have no more fight in us. i hate them. Having others trying to control the group is natural. Accepting it without fighting back seems unnatural. Even wolf packs have been known to eliminate a mean-spirited leader.

          I’ve honestly started to believe that most people don’t have species consciousness (I don’t know how else to put it), in that they don’t see how their individual survival is inextricably linked to the survival (and wellbeing) of the species as a whole.

          Most people don’t understand that they’re as much a part of the shit show as anyone else and as such tend to just wait things over while the building burns down around them. It’s frustrating, beyond frustrating even.
