      @@noppornwongrassamee8941 but without the Nazis we wouldn't nearly have as much medical knowledge that we do now, which is astounding. Mainly cause they didn't care about being humane to their test subjects so we can't really do that and we would've taken at least triple as long to find out the same things.

    One of the things I always enjoy about stories like this. Is the implication that war is literaly so intergral to our make up its a genetic trait.
    It's like because of billions of year of evolutionary forces from mass extinctions, plagues, climate changes, etc Humanity is the only sapient species that evolved to a space faring society by winning a multi billion year war against evolution itself.

      @@BRDoriginal Keyword there, is temporary. And once humanity has been introduced to the galactic community, any setbacks would become mitigated by the sudden influx of raw materials, new planets free of life to test weaponry on, and the amount of aid that would likely be given to any trading partners humanity manages to make. As long as we don’t make something that wipes out entire planets, the results of the improved tech as it’s adapted for use for the general public will make any setbacks well worth the strife.

    I disagree with her. If we are part of the Confederacy, that would make all of them our allies. Meaning any advancements we make would be for their defense as well as our own.

      Um i dont think your right.
      Works for us, but there perspective. What happens if we start making them extinct because we are too advanced? De they even need us at war?
      All I hey need is to let us fight in a war for a few years, pperferably to end it.
      From their perspective having slight benifits while letting humans spiral out of control is a bad deal, and all humans do is exploit and backstab untiil there is no any more to do, then and only thenn, after, and only after all the forests are raped, do we plant more because its ecconomic
