    This mindset can also be applied to inner city crime, specifically the generational aspect of it. It isn't about drug corners and making money anymore in a city like Chicago anymore. It's about what some kids a couple of blocks down did to some kid in your set as far back as 15-20 years ago. Of course, you go back far enough, and you really start to get to the bottom of why these things occur. In this same way, libs and righties alike don't have a scope that goes back further than something like 9/11. It's the same with Pearl Harbor - there is nothing about how US firms sponsored the rise of the 3rd Reich.

    I was on the garbage ResetEra forum earlier, reading the thread on this, and there was some user attempting to impose a statute of limitations on war crimes essentially. It's been 15 years they say, when does the incident stop being untouchable for capital to swallow and spit out under the auspices of the US war machine? Never mind that the fallout of Fallujah still continues to this day. No, what we need is gamers to boot up a "not political" simulation and LARP out their fantasies of going door to door and being saviors of a people they've probably never interacted with in their entire life.
