This cannot possibly go wrong. Ever.

His climate statement was what I was thinking about when I told him to shut the fuck up. I wish reporters would do the same.

At this point I know we’re boned. I just want Skynet to kill all the useless fucks responsible for it’s own creation first. So we all have that small moment of smug satisfaction before we’re processed into biofuel ourselves.

Seriously, have any of these people ever read or watched any science fiction?

That’s what’s so wild to me. They’re clearly inspired by Sci Fi concepts, imagery, and terminology, but they’ve obviously never engaged with Sci Fi as literature since much of it warns us against the very things they want to produce. Shows just how uncritical they actually are.

A better plan would be to keep both. The advent of tanks did not make infantry obsolete. Nor did it make cavalry obsolete (immediately, anyway).

Armor is having a bit of future shock, but it will adapt, even as drone warfare advances.
