A HFY Story : About Human spirit and Rage | 1995~ Deathworld, War, Terran & Humans

[@michaelyoung7261]

You don’t defeat humanity. You lull it into apathy. You don’t cow humanity, you sooth it gently. You don’t anger humanity, you distract it with cute and cuddly. Guide humanity with a carrot on a string, and pray that they become blind to all else. The day that humanity wakes up, is the day that something dies. The day that humanity rises, something terrible is born. The day that humanity says no, the universe will bend to make it so. So sing them a lullaby and tuck them in tight, and kiss them sweetly goodnight, and keep them in the dream, or else

[@guardianofthetoasters2323]

This... This gave me an inspiration to write something. About an alien civilization trying to delay the eldritch truth, the reality bending of a terrible God but instead of a God, it would be an entire civilization. Waiting to be awaken and bring ruin to the universe

[@exumbra1399]

How interesting that the greatest persecution, the cruelest perverse atrocities have only driven certain religions to the peak of influence. Curse them, and they bless you. Attack them, and they simply go elsewhere. Kill them, and your own enforcers convert under your nose! The strongest Empires and monarchs have sought to bring them to heel, only for the king to find themself unworthy. However, under the opposite conditions of peace and tranquility, they become complacent, judgmental, and ineffective. It is truly under duress that the best of humanity flourishes. Do not flee from conflict nor stress! Instead seek the greater truths and follow them unto death. For we shall all arrive there one day.

You have one chance to make peace. "When we finally took the colony, there were no civilians to capture, except children too small to understand." Return these children to a human world immediately ALIVE AND UNHARMED, because if you don't nothing can save you.

[@user-lp3cf5yn5b]

​@@devilcat9843 I'm not so sure. I believe if we ever are attacked by an extraterrestrial threat and rise up to a point where we can at least hold our own against them there will be no peace until we win and draw at least half as much more blood than they took of ours.

[@ianharrison5758]

@@devilcat9843 “Humans, remarkably, somehow have a simultaneously reactive and avoidant psychological relationship with their emotions, with some in the population unable to feel, while others are almost supernaturally good at reading the emotions of even separate species. This relationship with their emotional response makes it functionally impossible to gauge the reaction of the species as a whole to any major event. A blow that would destroy the psyche of many species, crushing their ego may simultaneously make some humans furious, others depressed, and worryingly, a large percentage of their population simply divorces emotional from their external reactions entirely. When in such a state, a human may say things such as “it is what it is” or the less intuitive “fuck it we ball”. Do not assume either if these reactions mean anything specific, as the only thing consistent in these individuals is that they bury their emotions internally and do not show outward signs of the subconscious emotional response all sentients have. It is advised to avoid putting a human in this emotional state because an act as simple as unintentional insult to their culture or species may yield no outward response, perhaps they may even laugh to diffuse the tension, while internally they may have already made the decision to “get it back in blood”, and you will not know there response until it happens. However, if there is one action one can take that will provoke a similar response in all of humanity not already deemed a threat to itself is any act that brings even perceived harm to their children. In their penitentiaries, it is often said that those imprisoned for crimes against a child will be brutalized in indescribable ways by humans that have already committed harm to humanity themselves. Murderers and Illicit substance distributors will risk their future freedom to bring justice for a child they do not know. I say this with no hint of sarcasm or humor, no one has ever found out what happens to those who wage war on humanity that target their children, as nothing is ever left to find. Entire empires have been erased from everything but history, and don’t think the humans stop there. We only know what they report in these scenarios, and as many humans see “snitching” as a dishonorable act, it is likely that many of the famous early civilization suicides taught in the galaxy were not just a species that flew too close to the sun. As a human would say it, they fucked around, and they found out”

@@Zael_Moonblade Marines who used tactics the French, British and Germans had abandoned back in 1916 as they were too costly. The American officers refused to learn from the hard won lessons of their allies, because they had 'all the answers'. Turned out they did not. So they used tactics the British and French had stopped using years prior, because apparently the superior fighting quality of the American Soldier was enough to make those tactics work..... It was not. The British Army in the last 6 months of 1918, which was when there was actual significant American ground force involvement, captured more ground, took more prisoners, and captured more artillery pieces and machineguns than the Americans and French COMBINED..... There were a lot of brave men in that war.... many Americans call our leaders stupid for the 'waste' of life, and do not realise how stupid their OWN leaders were for failing to learn the lessons the British and French tried to teach them. Instead they learned the same way as the British and French did, through copious expenditure of blood.....

"Everything that you thought had meaning: every hope, dream, or moment of happiness. None of it matters as you lie bleeding out on the battlefield. None of it changes what a speeding rock does to a body, we all die. But does that mean our lives are meaningless? Does that mean that there was no point in our being born? Would you say that of our slain comrades? What about their lives? Were they meaningless?... They were not! Their memory serves as an example to us all! The courageous fallen! The anguished fallen! Their lives have meaning because we the living refuse to forget them! And as we ride to certain death, we trust our successors to do the same for us! Because my soldiers do not buckle or yield when faced with the cruelty of this world! My soldiers push forward! My soldiers scream out! My soldiers RAAAAAGE!" - Commander Erwin

[@Tiewaz]

The thing about the human's final speech...was talking about reinforcements not reaching them in time. Not that they weren't coming, but that they wouldn't make it in time. They took one colony. Those reinforcements know they won't make it in time. And those back home know (or at least believe) the enemy that took that colony is unlikely to stop at that one colony. If the reinforcements that arrive lose, they will send intel back. If that species wants to survive, they best gather up the surviving human children and hand them over to the reinforcements and apologize like no one has ever apologized before.
