Yeah, but maybe that instantaneous pain is better?! Would you rather be shot in the chest and bleed out or be shot in the head? I mean, these thing were going to happen, would you rather be allowed to cling to ineffective tech or be forced to use the big boy shit? That’s vague by intention, it’s easy to say big boy shit or old stuff given either option, but given the choice between new unknown and old well known, old ppl tend to choose old, newer ppl choose the newer. This isn’t hard or easy to think about, but the hardest MF you know is soft, given the right stimuli. And the softest, hard. We’re all human, ape, mammal. No choice is really subjective til it reaches the individual in a group. Then it follows no rules, each of us are individual agents of chaos, living within a simalcrum of order, that emulates a simalucrum of order… etc. Order is either mass hysteria or reality, but individually, it’s our choice.
