Fear is the mind killer, it is the little death that brings total obliteration I will face my fear, allow it to pass over an through me And when it has gone I will turn the inner eye, and only I will remain
TBH the two things we needed more of in media were: a) listen to indigenous folks. Not in a "soundbite" fashion but a literal, policy making way. b) call out the politicians every step they support the obliteration of our ecosystem because some corporate extractionist needed profits.
As gorgeously as it's drawn, because of his focus on depicting the visual and obliteration of the interiority (he also ditches the bulk of McCarthy's ending for his own more subdued conclusion), it feels a much more truly bleak book, one where hope trickles rather than carries.

Agreed, both projects advocate for the obliteration of my personhood as an immigrant by forcefully assigning me to a subaltern, servile role, but their approaches are very different. I find instructive to learn about the rule of anti-enlightenment monarchs to get what Trump’s project entails.
Trump is a Nazi cunt I see that from the uk I think lots can see that too Well. I hope they can. I also hope the republicans get an obliteration in your convoluted tiered vote system
Imperial Japan was a fascist, aggressive empire from hell which had many opportunities to stop waging war and yet stopped at nothing. Only when confronted with certain obliteration they surrendered. In 2024 Japanese society still behaves self-servingly, glossing over some very inconvenient facts.
Death would need to be redefined to mean something far more permanent - the complete obliteration and erasure of your pattern. And in the face of eternal corporate slavery, everyone would want the right to a permanent death. Also clones, but I'm saving that for the comic.
Sobriety is the mind-killer. Sobriety is the little death that brings total obliteration.
