    Lmao

    I always hate in simcity when they’re like “crime is out of control! Build a police station!”

    I just like how more policing or the simple existence of police is seen as the way to reduce crime and not like addressing fundamental problems like the fact I keep sending UFOs to laser all the skyscrapers or that I purposely built a nuclear power plant directly in a residential area “for fun.”

    “Hey guys, it’s me, God. I just shot lightning directly into your coolest building and I keep destroying your infrastructure. Why aren’t you rebuilding it??? Why are there five police stations stacked up in the corner? Are your cops going to shoot me? Build some places for your people to live and work, dumbasses!”

    “I had a dream last night… God told me, “Abe, you must build more highways… and wider ones! So the police can fit a tank on it!” His will must be done.”

    the maoist uprising against the landlords was the largest and most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, and led to almost totally-equal redistribution of land among the peasantry
