The Bible is fiction used by the omnicide cult to prop itself up
I really recommend using real words, misusing words on purpose is one of the main reasons people's brains are so broken
A (proper noun) Leviathan is an iron fist that creates the peace of an empire through fear. Essentially, a Death Star. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leviathan_(Hobbes_book)

The Leviathan is a well known book on the philosophy of social contracts. But, point taken: I'll look for more universal terms
Claude:
Hobbes' "Leviathan" presents the thesis that human beings must surrender their natural freedoms to an absolute sovereign power in order to escape the "state of nature" - a condition of perpetual war, fear, and chaos.
In this state of nature, Hobbes famously describes human life as "solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short." He argues that humans are naturally self-interested and competitive, leading to constant conflict when left ungoverned.
The central argument is that individuals should enter into a "social contract," transferring their rights to a powerful sovereign (the Leviathan) who maintains peace and order through the monopoly of force. This sovereign power is necessary because without it, society would collapse into anarchy and violence.
Hobbes justifies this seemingly harsh position by claiming that even an authoritarian government is preferable to the chaos of the state of nature. The sovereign's absolute authority is legitimized by the consent of the governed, who voluntarily surrender certain freedoms for the security and stability that only a powerful central authority can provide.
I suspect your "omnicide cult" IS the Leviathan, but I'd have to do some research to know whether they really are the same
Sounds sensible now that I got the explanation 🤙
Thank you for the summary
We will probably need a powerful central authority to kill all the omnicidal denialists that outnumber survivalists
But we also seem to need decentralized communication infrastructure to keep natural selection going so we can evolve into a good species instead of getting locked into selective breeding and atrophying while we're still shitty to begin with
Ah, sorry -
The link broke and sent me to what you see in this screenshot, which matched what I thought I knew
But now that I look at the link again I see how it broke and I see where you were trying to link me 🤙
We've got sea serpents, Death Stars and medieval English dictators. I'm not quite sure what any of them represent, but if we need to attack at dawn then count me in.
Oh, the parentheses probably broke the link. 🤔 I think that's client-side, but I could have better URL encoded it
