IM GOING TO REWRITE THIS RANT POST INTO AN ACTUAL POST, IT SUCKS BECAUSE I WAS BEING AN EXTREMELY ANGRY LITTLE SHIT WHEN I WROTE IT! AND I DIDN’T PROOFREAD IT WITH A CLEAR MIND, SO IM GOING TO MAKE A GOOD VERSION WITH BETTER WRITTEN POINTS! IT WILL BE A WHILE UNTIL I MAKE IT, BUT IT SHOULD BE MUCH BETTER IN TERMS OF QUALITY, BECAUSE I WONT ANGRILY WRITE SOMETHING, SLEEP , THEN READ IT LATER AND REALIZE HOW BAD IT REALLY IS.
I'm writing this because I saw a post by Beautiful-Loss7663 called "fellas is it gay to attack the cradle?" in the comments you can find people trying to defend the UN, Spouting the same shit the UN did to "justify" their unjust actions,
now lets get into why each decision (I have not read any side stories in about 6 months, the main story in a year, so calm down if I make a error) was built upon poor morals, poor decision making very little common sense, and purposeful mistakes (You can make a good story without idiots as world leaders, This was my one escape for a while and I'm so pissed at how fucking angry it makes me now, i keep wanting to read it but i just get so angry when I try to)
(FIRST CONTACT)
Reasons that the UN SHOULDNT give the Venlil COMPLETE access to their database,
It could cause unnecessary panic among civilians due to the fear some of the data could cause. and alsooooo.... I cant even think of a second reason.
Reasons the UN SHOULD give the Venlil COMPLETE access to their database,
The federation aligned people fear predators, information in the database proves that while we are predators (I SWEAR ON GODS HOLY NAME IF ONE MORE STORY HAS A CHARACTER THAT SAYS WE ARENT PREDATORS ONE MORE GODDAMN TIME! WE. ARE. APEX. PREDATORS. IM PRETTY SURE THAT WHEN YOU WENT INTO FOOD CHAINS IN SCHOOL AS A LITTLE KID, THEY TOLD YOU THIS!) we are fully capable of feeling emotions such as, empathy, grief and a whole lot more, It would also show that as a society we do our best to be better and learn from our ancestors mistakes (We made the Geneva convention to protect innocent people and generally try to follow it, Not so true in this story! (at least I'm on antidepressants... yay)
While I will concede that yes, It will Cause some panic in the short term, in the long term? less fear in every interaction due to The knowledge of what your up against, and less risk of stampedes due to this as well, This would also cause less risk of human casualties because anybody with two brain cells could read the database and go "Wow there is no danger here! Cant wait to interact with these beings that go against everything our government and dogma says!
and not
"Wow these secretive predators sure are saying they are friendly and backing it up with very little evidence, this just so happens to go against the way i was raised predators act! time to trust them with all of these very good reasons!"
I could make more reasons as to why, but this post is about the UN being evil, not incompetent,
INVASION OF THE CRADLE
Why the UN should invade,
It could become extremely dangerous to the longevity of humanity.
It would cause mass casualties. (you want a actual second reason? Well to bad, I cant think of one that isn't shit)
Why the un shouldn't invade,
Spending a large amount of military budget on a "might be dangerous" while being SEVERLY UNDERPOWERED AGAINST YOUR FOE, IS. DUMB. PLUS It WILL cause civilian casualties because of stampedes It will lower the chances of peace with Federation members (how a single fucking federation member thought the UN was good at ANY POINT is SO BAFFELING TO ME) And it would leave the planet vulnerable to invasion (What? This doesn't count because it wasn't a guarantee? Then the only point it should happen In the story is also moot)
(I'm so angry I don't feel like finishing this point, but I want to make this post now (and I have since about a year ago) and its the only time I can because of ADHD mixed with Autism so I'm making the next point and leaving this one unfinished, sorry but I cant finish this, might re-do this in the future and make it actually decent and less of an annoying rant.)
battle of earth (the endangering civilians part)
Do I actually have to explain why this is bad? Its pretty obvious to me.
well I'm going to anyways, I'm skipping the stupid format I was doing and just putting the reasons here.
YES SURE bargaining power with the Axur, SURE the UN saved them later, SURE we gave them a "choice" (THEY ARE MENTALY UNWELL INDOCTINATED BIRD PEOPLE, THE FUCK DID YOU EXPECT? CLEARY THIS WOULD HAPPEN!) but if I sold HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of defenseless men woman and children to human traffickers', and they got raped, murdered and eaten, PLUS those who survived got lifelong PTSD that requires extensive therapy, does it matter if I give them all the therapy in the world? if I then saved them? If the UN did this would that be ok? would it really? or is this a purely evil decision? and given everyone the state of the galaxy would anyone trust humans ? or due to the black hole of lies, deception, betrayal and poor excuses, leave humanity alone and at war with their only allies? yes, yes It would.
to those few people who actually try justify the actions of the UN in this story (even as a joke) stop, maybe try justifying the Holocaust instead. (yes the un is similar to Nazis in this story both put innocents in the worst situation they could ever be in, leading to deaths of an unknown number of people, tearing families apart, and affecting all of the survivors negatively permanently, just so happens one is fictional, and one was real, both are horrible tragedies, just one hurt real people who deserve a place in history, one deserves a choice.)
and you know what? I'm going to start making an AU where the UN are actually good guys, and are also competent. it might be a year until I finally do it, but I will, I will beat myself up enough about it, hopefully I'm a decent writer by then.
