- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

But how do you know humanity is being attacked or that the bugs will destroy humanity? Just like you say everything else is speculation that is also speculation. It's also a speculation that the only thing saving humanity is the military. For all we know we're actually the attackers and bugs are just defending their homes and if we never attack there wouldn't be a conflict.
You can't just take away the whys and hows and say it's pro war. It's satire, if you remove all the nuance then of course it's going to be pro war. The whys and hows make this an anti-war movie.
Buenos Aires, on earth, was destroyed and everyone living there was killed.. nothing within the movie actually presents as the bugs may not be trying to destroy humanity and just spread/populate the galaxy. All of the government conspiracy inside job false flag stuff everyone here has fun talking about is almost completely baseless. It's all conjecture.
