According to what I managed to find, Bieber put out his cigarette on Post Malone, so Malone choked him.
I honestly have no idea what the ultimate machinations behind such a plan would be, I don't even believe that's necessarily the case, just something which strikes me as almost so ridiculously bad, that it has to be fake. Maybe I'm just an optimist, hell if I know...
But to give into flights of fancy, one of the reasons why I could see someone wanting to prolong a massive conflict (maybe even two!) would be to sell weapons and generally implements of war. Would track with past behaviour. I'm sure there are plenty of other imaginable economic and political reasons, but that's beyond speculation.
They did start selling weapons to any citizen who can enter a store, ask, and pay for one while there were no conflicts quite on this scale going on, which may or may not be just a coincidence. Again, haven't the foggiest and this is all in good... uuh... fun, I guess.
Y'know... If I were just a liiittle bit more paranoid, this would start looking like it's all planned out. Make the other guy so bad that people will basically have to choose between 'mild' genocide and a complete lunatic who wants to create a Theo-Fascistic Middle Ages kingdom.
I'm honestly not chipping into the debate, firstly because this particular moral quandary is a Kobayashi Maru type deal, secondly because I'm not American so it's not my place. Just random thoughts...
This was an almost creepy read, because you seem to have highlighted the very reason why I want out of IT and a desire I had swimming in the back of my mind for a while now!=))
Point one, it's because I feel that the time I invest in my work ends up nowhere - especially in QA and given the tendency to not do actual QA during dev time anymore because more profits.
Point two, my physical labour background actually stems from several years spent at the countryside and doing honest to goodness agriculture. I miss those activities, from managing a rural household, to sewing and reaping significant amounts of grain, corn and potatoes. It never fully left me, and especially in the past several years it's as though it started forming into a sort of desire. Maybe it's time to actually look into it.
Thank you so much for these insights, you helped me figure out a bit of myself!
I played around with the idea of trying my hand at a Psych or Philosophy degree, but these specialisations are... malnourished over here. Could try looking for stuff abroad, though. Thank you, on the list it goes!
Now that you mention it, I actually think I have an acquaintance who does CAD stuff:-? Unsure what, exactly, but couldn't hurt to ask! Thank you for reminding me of this!
