Podcast is Called : ASN Humans Are Space Orcs , HFY and other stories
--------------
This Story is Classified as HFY or Humanity Feck, Yea , but what does the Mean?
-------------
HFY is a story/series that takes a “human element” in either humanity or an “other” (race/species or object) that exists in a “setting” (future or other world/universe) with varying levels of culture, technology, society and history that help show in some shape or form the potential good or bad for humanity’s race/culture. In These stories Humans are often referred to as Human, Humanity, Deathworlder, Hellwolder in reference to the human planet of origin , Earth. This planet is seen by most of the universe as a place where only death and chaos can survive.
-------------
Taken from the FAQ of the r/HFY subreddit.
Humans Are Space Orcs (HASO) or Humans Are (Fantasy Race) Are used as a guide when writing.
In these Stories we normally View humans like the other races view orcs in a Fantasy Novel. We (Humans) share the same characteristics and personalities as orcs. Humans are normally treated as the outsiders and barbarians. Humans tend to be underestimated as well in these stories. Unlike Humanity Feck Yea , these don't always put a positive spin on humans\humanity sometimes looking at the darker side of human and humanity from the perspective of aliens.

So, the planet was claimed for memorial purposes? Definitely very human.

[@christopherg2347]

"What do you want this planet for?" "Cementary."

I'll be honest, I didn't even know we had cemeteries overseas...Thank you for the knowledge.

[@aaronwilcox4376]

Not only does the US have the cemeteries in Europe, but in France, the citizens maintain them. They take the responsibility very seriously. They consider it an honor. First and Second World War era cemeteries both.

When heroes weep... ... remember their mothers wailed. War is not like the movies or the games. It smells like a sewer on fire and it sounds like screams for parents who cannot hear them.

[@barelyasurvivor1257]

I will always remember this incident, It was near or at the end of the Vietnam war, I was at the airport, and there were some returning soldiers coming back, as they walked through, some anti war protestors yelled and spit on them. I was so shocked! I still remember it to this day and I am 72 now.

[@iaaf_nw2367]

​@@barelyasurvivor1257those protesters are the very reason why we lost at 'Nam.

I can never understand the mentality of people who do that, and I am infinitely happy that I cannot.

[@TechnoMageB5]

@@barelyasurvivor1257 They should have spit on their government, even if it's besides the point. American forces had that war WON - and only because the soldiers were ordered to pull out with the job not quite finished did the Red Army there recover and take over. It wasn't the soldier's fault. That's the worst part. The soldiers themselves did not fail. And even if they did, they did not deserve such disrespect.

[@KrizzRobin113]

"The sun shining down on these green fields of France The warm wind blows gently, and the red poppies dance The trenches have vanished, gone under the plow No gas, no barbed wire, no guns firing now But here in this graveyard it's still no man's land The thousands white crosses in mute witness stand To man's blind indifference to his fellow man And a whole generation that were butchered and damned." -Green Fields of France 😴

[@weirdredpanda]

The part about being hated back home just because they followed the orders of those elected by the very ones doing the hating speaks volumes. Also about the rebels fighting just to make their own rules and about history being rewritten according to other people's opinions and desires, people who were not involved. About the rebels, think about how rewritten history would call our Revolutionary War heroes if we had lost the war and were still a territory of England. They would be called rebels and terrorists. A huge like to the author!

[@colincampbell767]

Just like the people who fought for the South during the US Civil war are regarded nowadays. Now there is a systematic push to destroy their subculture and history.

[@petercampbell4220]

The orbiting ships are also on "eternal patrol", like the submarines and ships on the bottom.

[@johnathanjarrett63]

I think this is the best place to put this. Too many of my brothers and sisters in arms have been lost to wars, both during and after. THE FINAL INSPECTION The soldier stood and faced God, Which must always come to pass. He hoped his shoes were shining, Just as brightly as his brass. 'Step forward now, you soldier, How shall I deal with you ? Have you always turned the other cheek ? To My Church have you been true?' The soldier squared his shoulders and said, 'No, Lord, I guess I ain't. Because those of us who carry guns, Can't always be a saint. I've had to work most Sundays, And at times my talk was tough. And sometimes I've been violent, Because the world is awfully rough. But, I never took a penny, That wasn't mine to keep... Though I worked a lot of overtime, When the bills got just too steep. And I never passed a cry for help, Though at times I shook with fear. And sometimes, God, forgive me, I've wept unmanly tears. I know I don't deserve a place, Among the people here. They never wanted me around, Except to calm their fears. If you've a place for me here, Lord, It needn't be so grand. I never expected or had too much, But if you don't, I'll understand. There was a silence all around the throne, Where the saints had often trod. As the soldier waited quietly, For the judgment of his God. 'Step forward now, you soldier, You've borne your burdens well.. Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets, You've done your time in Hell.' Author Unknown~

What a brutal story... May they rest in peace

[@vinnyganzano1930]

Take it from an infantryman who was the son of an infantryman who was the son of an artilleryman who was the son of an infantryman, war is brutal and even if you survive without a physical scratch you're still scarred.

[@douglascunningham6319]

I appreciate them that gave in my name. I believe those that bring us war are not those who fight them. An I also pray that they'd leave us in peace. Now I think graveyards in space will become parks an gardens for are dead an family to visit.

That's exactly why Humanity is claiming that planet. It's a planet sized Mausoleum. A tribute to the victims of a mindless, insane war.

Another sad story? Another story about the inability of humankind to get along peaceably with one another? Another story about the human condition? Well written and well narrated, Squirrel. Well done, indeed. May we one day learn this hard lesson and study war no more.

[@derekstein6193]

No, let us still study war forever more. But not as a vocation or a goal, but as a fossil of the past, as the archaeologist looking back at a time long past, never to return again.

[@GyorBox]

If some of these stories are accurate, then if there are Xenos out there, we should study and remember War. Because if we don't, then they will come knocking, to challenge, conquer, or to extinguish us. However, if we are alone, then I would agree that we should only study War as a lesson, and not as a need.

A place to provide rest for both sides of the conflict. This is why I feel it is wrong to be tearing down memorials to Confederate soldiers. While I don't agree with what they fought for, THEY fought for a cause they believed was just and should be remembered for such. To continue to provide lessons for us all. After all, if we forget our history we are doomed to repeat it.

[@ninjayacdan]

The war started because of slavery, but most confederates were fighting against the union's overreaction to the separation. "The war of Northern Aggression" they called it.

[@judahschultz]

@@ninjayacdan I’m sorry, but you’re wrong. The Civil War started because of taxes and political inconsistencies between the southern states (democrats) and the northern states (republicans). The emancipation proclamation made the civil war reorient to a war on slavery.
