I'm glad we've come to an understanding.

DMT provides more benefit per dollar.

DMT is cheaper.

Controversial opinion, but I believe anesthesia is even better than sex. If you're ever been put under for surgery, you know what I'm talking about.

And they say that DMT can top even that. Only problem is that you have to take a trip outside the US to get it.

Mostly, yeah.

The White or Black aliens are a lot nicer than the Terra Invicta aliens. They only launch their invasion because the religious organization asks them to, and even then, the aliens don't hurt anyone intentionally.

Looking at the Terra Invicta factions, they end up like this in White or Black:

  • Project Exodus never gets off the ground.
  • The Protectorate is absorbed into the Servants, as the Protectorate comes to believe that the Servants' methods are a better way to assert control over the human population.
  • The Initiative is wiped out during World War III. Remnants are absorbed into the Resistance and Humanity First.
  • As things get more desperate, the Resistance is absorbed into Humanity First.
  • The Academy leads a strong alliance of nations in the East, but they are ultimately absorbed into the Servants around ~2098.
  • Humanity First is greatly weakened in the early 22nd century, and nearly destroyed in the 23rd century, but small rebel factions continue to exist into the 27th century.
  • The Servants control the entire Earth by the early 22nd century, and they take big steps to assert their rule in the 23rd century. They are unambiguously the winner in the 27th century.

The current election is done, but there will be more in the future. I believe he's referring to those.

The US is most similar to the 2030s-early 2050s US in the Chinese-written White or Black (Chinese variant of Brave New World).

  • An alien shows up, and an international team sent to investigate kill it by accident.
  • A bunch of aliens show up a few years later, but they're content to float in the sky.
  • After deciphering their language, humanity discovers that the aliens seek asylum on Earth, and they claim that the human race is doomed unless humanity does some immediate course correction.
  • "Lol, no."
  • Meanwhile, a group of religious MAGA Republicans (Trump is presumably dead at this point) form a religion devoted to worshiping the aliens, believing that they're angels sent by God.
  • The aliens' predictions come to pass. The collapsed US is then taken over by the alien supporting religious organization in the late 2060s-2070s.

In a place as polarized and corrupt as the US, Voter ID is merely a tool to keep Red or Blue in power. Tomfoolery involving the invalidation of a side's enemies' IDs is near certain.

Trump has this to say:

VOTER I.D. JUST APPROVED IN WISCONSIN ELECTION. Democrats fought hard against this, presumably so they can CHEAT. This is a BIG WIN FOR REPUBLICANS, MAYBE THE BIGGEST WIN OF THE NIGHT. IT SHOULD ALLOW US TO WIN WISCONSIN, LIKE I JUST DID IN THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, FOR MANY YEARS TO COME!

Sounds like Trump has plans to make sure people like Susan Crawford don't get elected in the future.

Fanfic Girls' Frontline.

It is an excerpt from a satirical booklet, created from the tendencies of people who power trip as a security officer in the game Space Station 13.

I am spreading it around because I have seen a remarkable similarity between those security officers and the people who run the US government. The only real difference is that the security officers are eager to do cruel things with their own two hands.

According to the Shitcurity Handbook of BeeStation:

  • Rule 1: Everybody is guilty even when proven innocent.
  • Rule 4: When in doubt, whoever you may be dealing with is a traitor. Execute him.
  • Rule 5: If your weapon has a kill setting, use it. Only in death is a criminal truly stopped.
  • Rule 8: Only through death is justice served.
  • Rule 51: Anyone accused of being a traitor by a crew member must be executed on the spot. Do not give them a chance to weasel their way out of justice by talking things out. It's the only way that you can be sure the traitorous criminal scum are all stopped.
  • Rule 54: Theft, pornography reading, trespassing, and not liking you are all signs of revolutionary activity. Beat their skulls in until they remember their true allegiance.
  • Rule 55: Any massacres, ethnic cleansings, purgings, underground permabrig prisoner fights, or general mass-murder orchestrated by superiors is to be immediately sanctioned and, if necessary, unquestioningly enforced.
  • Rule 66: If you murder someone on the gulag, it doesn't really count as murder.
