@@richardarriaga6271 But this is not surprising, one of the 10 plagues was intended to kill the firstborns. And you know... "don't try to kill their children" 😅
They should have put more effort into studying the theology of that particular story. That God being higher than anything in the Universe having created the Universe and even time itself. Then willingly suffered and died the most ignominious of deaths in order to be an example for Its children that no one has greater love than to die for another. Then you threaten the children, the very hope for a future of such people. Watch the video "Those who run". We are persistence predators. We keep up the chase until the prey is exhausted and can no longer evade us. You show yourselves to be a threat to our children; go ask wolves, lions, tigers and bears. Go back in time to ask the short face cave bear, the largest mammalian land predator ever (on Earth) why you do not threaten human children. Humans react as a community very much the way they would act as an individual. In a fight against an existential threat if one falls, the others persist. “The only hope you have is to accept the fact that you’re already dead. The sooner you accept that, the sooner you’ll be able to function as a soldier is supposed to function: without mercy, without compassion, without remorse. All war depends upon it.” Captain Ronald Speirs, Band of Brothers
I'm reminded of a proverb by a great human philosopher at times like these. 'If it bleeds, we can kill it.' God, demon, or simple child killer. They die all the same at our blades.
Alien: “It’s okay! The human female said she didn’t want it.” Human: “Oh, okay. Here let me help you. We have this nifty vacuum device that will suck it up and chop it to bits.”
"The human love of overkill." Better overkill than underkill... Also, imagine their surprise when the humans insist on making the harming of the juveniles of any species a war crime....
As a father of 2 babies this hits hard. Feel like if I were about to go into battle and heard a baby get shot, I would also fall into a blood rage. Great story
" and when humans decide that something is dangerous to their young, they will stop at nothing to destroy it" sums up our species pretty well don't you think?
Reminds me of a fantasy monster that, if you kill one of them, the rest will attack relentlessly until you die, no matter how many of them are mowed down in the process. An unusual evolutionary strategy to be sure, but it worked. Everyone absolutely avoided attacking one of those things at all costs, because the only way to end the resulting onslaught was to either exterminate the entire population of the critters, or abandon your outpost.
Unless they haven’t been born yet. Then half of the humans delight in mechanically sucking them from the females gestation sacs and chopping them to bits. A most curious species.
I love how humanity is not upset that they are the only ones fighting, the admiral is just like "Keep the guns and my men fed and try to keep up, my boys are trying to have fun!"
Pankin Command: Why are the humans fighting with such sheer wantonness. It wasnt their offspring. Pankin Xenobiologist: Apparently their military doctrine revolves around a riddle that goes, "what makes the grass grow?"
Hello there my fellow netizen! If you don't mind my asking.... what is the answer to the riddle? Honestly, it's the first time I've heard (read) this one.
Gunnery Sergeant Gerheim asks, "What do we do for a living, ladies!" and the platoon replies, "KILL! KILL! KILL!" He then asks, "What makes the grass grow?" and they reply "BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD!"
OMG...... YIPPEE KI YHA MOTHER F**KER....... HAD ME ON THE FLOOR LMFAO SO HARD...... It took 10 min's for my eyes to stop watering so I could play the rest of the story....
The act of conception itself is pleasurable, yes, but the actual conception itself is immaterial. The process of a female's gestation period and eventual delivery however renders her so physically ill it is legally considered a temporary disability. The actual birthing process is agonizing to the point where many women must be sedated simply to endure it without accidentally mutilating themselves or others due to the pain. They are also a species that fully raises their young until said young is considered an independent adult, and even then by law they must care for the offspring for several years beyond what would be considered physical maturity to account for a legally dictated age of mental maturity. The human gestation period is nearly a full year. It is considered a statistical oddity for a human female to have more than one offspring from one gestation. From a sheer biological standpoint, humans invest an incredible amount of time and energy into their young, and that's before the social and psychological aspects of raising it come into effect. There is no such thing as 'just an offspring' to humans for this reason. They are instinctively hard-wired to consider their young to be the most important thing in the universe. For a long time, a popular cultural phrase has been 'our children are our future'. And after all, if one's only offspring does not survive into adulthood, one has not succsssfully fulfilled the biological imperative to pass along one's genetic code.
With fewer offspring this is certainly true but remember it’s not that long ago when 2/3 of our children failed to survive to adulthood. We are highly successful at breeding because we have had to.
human incubation time is insanely long and it takes years until a human child can even run fast enough to be of any use. cows and humans are both pregnant for 9 months but a calf stands after 1h, walks after a few more and can run reasonably fast enough after a week. human babies are useless for years 😅
@@Genesis23OPB The humans do have a lengthy gestation, and it is true that it does little to preload memetic state, but the humans are quite astonishing regardless. Most survive fewer than a hundred of their systems cycles, and the cycles are not long. The cultural mandates around gestation appear to be largely concerned with avoiding deviant humans from preying on the fresh naive humans during an uninterrupted concentrated memetic transfer period. Human knowledge is neither protein nor genetically encoded, but rather coalesces as a completely nontransferable holographic store of weighted cellular interconnection. They must rely upon lingual metaphoric encoding transfer for all human knowledge, not merely social niceties as most reasonable species do. The young are initially mental blanks. However, with determination and support, a human infant can take fewer than thirty cycles to absorb sufficient memetic material from the gestalt cultural noosphere to advance from blank to expertise in subquantum theory, often already specializing in applying the theory to weapons manufacture. Thirty local cycles. No more than 12.5 of our own. Barely sufficient time to exit the first cast. Do you have any idea how long it takes to reach the seventh cast in both application of universal principals and the effective martial armament doctrines of memetics? And we receive much from the memories transferred to us in gestation. Thirty mere cycles.
Probably because strictly speaking our ancestors were prey. Humans were originally fruit eating omnivores that scavanged meat. So we breed like prey animals. And biologically, we still are prey animals. We only can be apex predators by making weapons, but a base model "feral" human is pretty easy prey @@stevenredpath9332
"One of their stories has their literal god coming down, pissing some of them off and they nail him to wood to die" This had me laughing so damn hard 😂
My one thought was of the speech of Belgrade. Modified by myself for the occasion. Heroes! The supreme command has erased our regiment from its records. Our regiment has been sacrificed for the honour of Terra and Humanity. Therefore, you no longer need to worry about your lives: they no longer exist. So, forward to glory! For Terra and humanity! Long live the Terra, Long live Humanity!”
I like the idea of an alien species not putting any value on their young but putting enough value on kitties to know the term "kitty killing monsters", like, don't care about children, but kittens? That's were I draw the line
"contradicting doctrine which said that ground troops should only come down once the area is secured..." Allow me to introduce you to the concept of paratroopers.
This reminded me of Babylon 5: in the Beginning movie, where Londo recalled the war between the Humans and the Minbari. "They made the Minbari fight for every inch of space" "When they ran out of ships they would use guns, when they ran out of guns they would use knives... and bare hands" chek out Mollari on Humans if your interested.
I wonder how long it will take for that war crime to not just include human young. Because we kind of pack bond with anything. And If I see someone threatening a kid…
I listened to several of your recordings now, and many of them show the problem we have to fix if we want to avoid murdering our own again and again. Hate that is kept alive and nurtured for generations.
Touch the kids, experience the reason we made the Geneva conventions in the first place. Angry Canadians. Cuz it's not a way crime the first time until after the war.
Haha, unless they haven’t been born yet and the mother doesn’t want them. Then they’re just medical waste. Or if the aliens are here to make our kids confused about what gender they are and give them sex change surgeries without our knowledge. Then we’ll call that healthcare. But other that that, yeah. Stay away from our kids. Period!
*alien soldier* they brought a church...?...it also have guns...and...wait is it walking ? Titan in a floridan accent: a good alien is a dead one*proceed to obliterate the fortress in front of him*
Story could have ended with the anthropologists finally realizing the value of a human child, because the time investment is completely different from all other known intelligent species which all spawn like frogs or fish. Give it a little bit of a 50's scifi "it's a cookbook" twist.
“From what twisted depths of the abyss can hate like that come from? What is he thinking about? Doesn’t he know what he’s doing?” Obviously you’ve never met a Marine, hatred and lack of thought is what makes them strong. 🗿🗿🗿
Bayonetting the xeno is acceptable conduct on the battlefield. Remember, gents. Rifle length gas 20" and mid length gas 16" ARs with fixed front sight bases readily accept bayonets.

This sounds more like a hoard. The most successful militarys on the planet all value human life above all else. No man left behind, etc. Reckless abandon usually just leads to high casualties rates and surrender. They mentioned “self termination” attacks which I’m assuming means kamikaze missions. But a suicide mission isn’t a kamikaze. A kamikaze is an attack where it’s success is contingent on both sides total destruction. A suicidal mission is incredibly dangerous, with almost no chance of survival, but those who carry it out don’t succeeed by dying, on the contrary, they should try as hard as they can to avoid it. This humanity feels more like crazed kamikaze wilfully killing themselves than people who understand the grave consequences, don’t want to die, but face long odds regardless.
Don't get me wrong i do love those stories but there is something bothering me a lot. I listened to some of them and there's often something common: the humanity is always too much, the best or the worst but still humanity first. That does bother me a lot. It's okay for 1-2 stories but not that much.
That ending sucked, I was hoping it would show us to be a reasonable species and the galaxy had nothing to fear. Still liked it because it was a good story just was hoping for a different ending.
It feels incomplete. Like there should be another part where the humans are informed of the surrender and either continue to go off full throttle or show how we can turn in the sword for the plow and rebuild what we just destroyed.
I think the story is complete. The humans became the horror stories the reptilian anthropologist was concerned aboot. A complete story. Beginning middle and end. But I'd like to see more too
