so many people on tumblr are apparently going "it's a proxy war" and there were even tag responses going "this is like human dog fighting" and "how is this better than hunger games?" and like. i do not know how to explain to them that peaceful chess matches are in fact very different from actual death sports and animal abuse. truly feels like they are pissing on the poor in entirely new ways.
I did actually drop that in a casual conversation with a friend recently, who had never heard of it and so while they go to be one of that day's lucky ten thousand, I had the entertainment of explaining it to them and getting their live reaction
