The author is an idiot. You build your city, click save, THEN spam the spawn disaster button, watch the carnage, then load your save like nothing happened. That way you can still be a saint and torture your citizens, it’s like Schrödinger’s torture victim, it happened and it didn’t!

Hmm I wonder what version they're playing. Mine didn't have fascism and transphobia and political assassinations on the disaster list but yeah they need to switch it up a bit because it's really exhausting. I'm ready for the alien UFO and Godzilla to lighten the mood a bit.

Subtly it’s probably just the music that gives them the vibes and they don’t even realize it.

it wasn't chaotic evil, it was chaotic good
