The moralist of course gets the cause and effect completely wrong.


People don't like to be confronted with such harsh realities.

I know. However this does not make these harsh realities less true.

Reminder: Pogrom against Jews only ended because Jews took up arms, established Israel and obtained nukes. Of course pogrom mobs had all kinds of moralistic excuses for pogroms. There is only one real cause though, namely lack of ability of the Jewish community to retaliate.

In a broken world after a disastrous WWIII using nukes, AI and ethnobioweapons in 2058 that wiped out all humans but blacks, a group of determined merchants and their allies decided to stop the collapse of civilization. They established the Enugu League and later the Onitsha Empire. Under the guidance of leaders such as Joseph Ijeawele, Jessica Udene and Victoria Machie they struggled very hard to resist decline at all costs..

This year was 2091. The disastrous Teen Rebellion caused by Jonah Nyagura and Juliet Udene's disastrous education policies entered its eighteenth year.

Whatever. We get it, the world is a cold, cruel place where life is nasty, brutish and short. Based on more than a few of your recent posts, I'm inclined to think that you are only interested in pushing that particular bit of Political Philosophy 101, and that the actual topics of the threads you're posting in are irrelevant to you.

Stop it. Stop it now or the text will turn from maroon to Red.

And you know what? Since this thread originated in a fairly blatant attempt to troll the LGBT community, let's let it stay locked. Do not re-post.

We used to have an LGBT+ megathread but I can't find it.
