    Intelligence is a pathogen. Wherever it develops in the universe, it rapidly spreads and consumes everything, wiping out most other life forms and eventually itself. It has probably developed over and over again over time all over the universe including our own galaxy. It may be relatively rare, but there would still be millions of instances. The fact that we have found no evidence of intelligent life elsewhere is not because it doesn’t exist or is too far away, but because we have missed the band of detectable transmissions from these societies that existed closer to us. There will be others, but we may be gone by then. We should definitely not be working to spread to other worlds. We should perish here from our own behaviors as we are meant to.

    I hope this becomes another Vietnam. I hope others help Iran like others have helped Ukraine. I assume that the US military has lost a lot of expertise with the purge of non loyalists… I would love to see the US military bled dry by this war like Russia has been with Ukraine. Weakened and humiliated, the United States would cease to be the “leader of the free world” and take its new place as a big-but-fucked-up country that nobody holds in any kind of high esteem. I say this as an American. I am ashamed of my country and its people.
