Still the wrong guy to point your missiles at though

[-] [email protected] -4 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

I have said nothing about warheads, which is kind of my point, you are clearly projecting that into my words when I am trying to have a discussion about the accuracy of maps not in terms of fidelity but specifically in terms of who we put trust into in the process of making a map and what the consequences of that necessarily are.

Also, even on a metaphorical level you are completely missing the point if you think what direction a cruise missile happens to be pointing or indeed even heading is indicative of its destination, or rather that it even has a destination necessarily. The point of cruise missiles is they have the most precise internal maps and can move in ways that you can never fathom or understand because you simply cannot know how much more deeply they have learned the landscape around them than you because you wasted your time fighting not listening and learning.

Cruise missiles are the most expensive form of murder, and I do not condone murder, but I can understand the cruise missile as a process of gathering intelligence that has been foreclosed into lethal action, and that before that point maybe flying an inert cruise missile by the window of someone who kept wanting to kill might pose an interesting question to them about whether they want to continue to murder or not. That is what the cruise really means in a cruise missile, it can take it's time or rather it takes it's time because it knows the best way to survive is to be so powerful that it can appear to be anything and nothing in the home of the enemy for as long as it wants and you won't know until after the consequences have happened.

If this sounds like a threat, consider why you may feel threatened because the shadow that just passed across the sky over your head too quick to have been a real thing is now gone and the birds have begun to fill the air with their songs again. This is a call to peace by the periphery not a drive toward violence at the core.

When you lazily accuse me of condoning violence you flatten this entire conversation, exactly the way it needs to be flattened to allow more violence and as an artist I will not have it.
