    Blow up the train you spineless cowards

    It’s close enough to the tracks that it would hurt the hostages, and the wreckage would probably have enough momentum to hit them anyway.

    This is a good analogy actually. Blowing up the train would feel good, but that isn’t going to stop the momentum, and it’s unfortunately virtually impossible to outright stop it’s momentum at this point. All that blowing up the train would accomplish is sending fiery wreckage towards the middle track.

    This is why accelerationism is stupid.

      Blowing up the Genocide Machine is bad actually because of this scenario I imagined

      I agree it has to go but we need to keep feeding souls into it and shut it down slowly (they will never shut it down and will forget this conversation happened as soon as it’s time to go to brunch)
