The heroism of war is a lie. It's not the bravest who fight, but those who have no other choice. It's not the noble who die, but those who are the least equipped to avoid death. The glory of war is a mask put on to cover the despair of a people without hope. War is the manifestation of a society that's lost its meaning. Every life is disposable for a national or political ideal. When the rich wage war, it is the poor that die. The sacrifice is always made by those who have the least to gain. War is sold to the public as a necessary evil. The powerful and the rich painted as a moral crusade, but the crusaders of the poor and the disenfranchised. This war will be a war of fear. It has been purposed thusly. People let it in slowly like a kind of ecstasy. They believe in it like they believe in chiromancy and fortune telling. They believe in it like they believe in anything that releases them from the forging of their own destiny. Men love their fear. It reconciles them with themselves. Men get the war they deserve.

[aspiringalaskan]

Superman desperately scanning the street during a fight to find the most morally acceptable car to throw at his opponent, knowing that not everybody has insurance, and loss of transportation can ruin a life -

A wave of incredible relief washes over him as he spots the hard geometric lines and silver paintless sheen of a Cybertruck.
