I mean, Mexico has never been a beacon of privacy or regulations (just for super specific technologies that were implemented first, mostly banking ones), but the government has also been pushing weird changes to how they handle surveillance and personal identifications, giving more power to the authorities while they’re exempt for most of the transparency laws (everything they do, even public infrastructure is managed as some kind of ‘state secret’).
I am scared.

Lame, not boring. Some people believe in war.
Supposedly this time it was pride that has prevented peace, I would say on both sides.
With Russia on Nato’s side, there would be another Eight-Nation Alliance and China would be split, however ethical that would be.

I think at the deepest level the elite still believes in the Iliad and they want this war.

As funny as the comic is, I am convinced that it will never get to that point, because an asshole with a thirst for power will always exist and be stronger than a bored asshole. Therefore war will keep, as it has always been, be for power.
