Appeasement is at this point an ingrained set of neuron pathways in every human. If only history or game theory could teach us the optimal strategy for when your bigger sibling comes to fuck your day up.

It’s a nice meme but their population is turning geriatric, and they’re literally unable to pass any policies to make the birth rate go up.

You need to make a new torrent.
