I just can't believe I have an easier time getting along with some of the Sangheili responsible for the war than I do with her.

with a terrible crime?

why no matter how wrong the actions were, why they were so desperate to do anything that might stop them?'

Or the mere fact we did something wrong just too much to bear. That we should have let them kill us, kill literally billions of children because less than two thousand people were involved-

name of saving my species from utter annihilation. I make no illusions about that. But never tell me that I threw away my own humanity like trash. Like it was unwanted or that I was done with it. And never say it was done for no reason.

Does none of this make you think, 'oh wow I can understand-

will turn them to ash.

What do you do?

Enlighten me how in that circumstance you would keep your humanity fully intact? No hard choices made. No being a piece of shit to others. Be fully ethical and moral.

I had to make those decisions every day for years. I have done terrible things in the-

call. You cannot negotiate with your enemy. They believe your destruction is the will of their gods, and that they are their instrument. They do no accept surrender or take prisoners.

Regardless of whatever action you take, you are sentencing billions of your people to death against an enemy that-

Your enemy is superior in numbers, technology and weapons. It will merely buy time for a small percent of the planet to evacuate. If you split up the fleets to send a portion to both systems, you ensure there will be no evacuations from either system.

There is no aid coming. No allies to-

No. You said a genocide doesn't excuse making hard choices. Hard choices were all there was in the war.

Let me give you an example.

Assume you have no powers. You receive word than two of your worlds, are about to come under attack. There is only one fleet available.

This fleet will not win. -

Yes, when people say "I don't care about all this talk of genocide" we think of you as an oppressor looking down on us. I don't know why you find that to be such an odd concept.

If you can't get past that part, I'm just not going to engage with anything else you say.

then there's no point in continuing.

I wish you the best, good luck with being a superhero, I hope you never have to face the choice's we've had to.

Then you're never going to reach an understanding with us. You're just going to continue to be an oppressive alien in a long list, looking down on us, telling us how we should exist and how you're better than us.

If you cannot understand how a person's circumstances shapes them and influences them-

🤨

Sure could've fooled me. You seem far more interested in this as some sort of academic exercise than a practical experience tens of billions of people lived and died through.

Me trying to do a show of forge against the Covenant

My bad guys.

Didn't try a show of force against the Covenant. Didn't try to arrest them either.

Will note that neither option worked against the Insurrection but I'm sure we just didn't try hard enough.

If you say so. I'm no academic.

I am aware. It sounds dreadfully exhausting and unproductive.

Don't worry guys I'm sure if you all keep arguing in circles forever you'll eventually solve ethics and moral philosophy.

Easy.

Sometimes you just have to say fuck it we ball.

It is truly exhausting dealing with the bureaucracy sometimes.
