Question: How does killing 100x more save humanity?
-
Breaking the Will:
- An enemy willing to kill millions cannot be stopped by proportional justice (x1).
- They only stop when the cost of aggression becomes existential.
-
Ending the Cycle:
- Proportional warfare leads to "forever wars" (50-year planning).
- Disproportionate warfare (x100) ends the conflict immediately.
-
The Calculus of Salvation:
- The "Hardcore" are a cancer striving to kill the host (Humanity).
- Chemotherapy (x100 toxic force) kills the cancer.
- Result: The patient (Humanity) survives. The cancer dies.
- "We win. Humanity wins."
