I am not a pacifist. Far from it. I believe that a man avoids a fight until he can’t, then a man finishes it. A man prepares for the fight and by preperation the fight may be averted.

However, Man is a beast that wants to dominate. My comments were predicated on the cover art, showing “police robots” running amok in a crowd. My thinking was that a popular magazine wanting to sell magazines has the pulse of the people who could lay down money to buy. For them to make a cover like that is a reflection of the people who may make a buying decision. So they entice with art that would appeal to those decision makers.

Hence, art that appeals to those decision makers is a self righteous state bullying the masses... The decision makers are just Joe Bag O Donuts. The decision makers are us. Damn shame.
