I don't have any guns. All I have is a vote. So I have to make sure that I don't encourage genocidal maniacs to be genocidal maniacs with that vote.

What do you do when the overlords oppress you and won't listen to you?

They get their heads out of their asses and start listening or the system burns and a new system emerges.

Nah. I'm trying to move away from war and genocide while there is still a glimmer of that possible.

People killing eachother.

That's the problem.

If noone killed anyone, noone would need to kill anyone.
