The real situation is often hard to see, redirecting and obfuscating your view away. A situation where all sides, are just mad at others based on what should be completely arbitrary value propositions. Human vs Machine, Human vs Alien. Perspectively, an alien could be a robot from space. Or a robot from another nation, as immigrants are considered “aliens”. We only define machine as being separate as part of our own value propositioning.
So we fight these wars, completely to establish our vals from their vals, and keep our vars free!
