President Biden told reporters Wednesday that Palestinian terrorists have “gotta learn how to shoot straight” — one day after an explosion outside a hospital in the Gaza Strip.
“I’m not suggesting that Hamas deliberately did it,” the president said at Ramstein Air Base in Germany en route back to Washington after visiting Israel earlier in the day.
“It’s that old thing: Gotta learn how to shoot straight,” Biden went on.
“It’s not the first time that Hamas has launched something that didn’t function very well.”
wow, this fucking sucks Joe
Biden has sat immobile, his body slowly crumbling, within the White House of Terra for over 10,000 standard years. Although once a living man, his shattered, decaying body can no longer support life, and it is kept intact only by the cybernetic mechanisms of the White House and a feeble mind itself sustained by the daily sacrifice of thousands of lives.
oh shit covid wasn't enough the U.S. is going to latch onto any and all genocides it can to fill those black ships to keep him sustained
Reminder that the truth of the Emperor eating 1,000 souls a day, something supposed to be so horrific that if the masses learned of it the entire Imperium would dissolve into civil war, is substantially less than the peak daily deaths from COVID in the US (around 4k).
Turns out what was obvious satire in the 80s is just what we live now. It wouldn't surprise me if Long Pig restaurants serving lab grown meat opened up in this god forsaken country

Not exactly what Ellis envisioned but I'd count it, sure. It fits with our version of the technodystopia those guys wrote about. Awful and dehumanizing yes, but also twee and nauseatingly performative. Mostly just duller, a boot grinding a human face into the pavement forever rather than stomping
It's probably less than the daily deaths from malnutrition, homelessness, and despair. Remember kids, Omelas is a massive improvement
Also it's ostensibly somewhat rational in the lore, at least compared to lots of the Imperium's nonsense. Without doing it interstellar travel becomes impossible, and the people they're throwing into the fire would have been euthanized anyway since they randomly turn into satan portals if they can't handle their shit.
40K's satire mostly isn't only actually about exaggerating the size or nature of atrocities (not that it doesn't do that), it's often in demonstrating how utterly batshit the universe would have to be for things like that to be halfway rational.
