@@NC54 We're also extremely spiteful. I'm willing to bet that, if there was no hope of victory, humans would nuke the earth until it was sterile of life. Just to give the aliens the finger.
The moral of the first story do not attack of species that made its history fighting itself so much that they needed to come up with rules to prevent themselves from embracing Extinction. Or short do not poke the happy fun humans
I like how no one talked about the 2nd story's human pettings It was actually wholesome, a terrifying species, surrounded an single, defenseless alien And just petted him/her, no care in the world
The first story reminds me of a description of the native tribes at the beginning of European colonizing: "These people are savages! When they are attacked, they fight back!"
We offer peace and our friendship, they spit in our face and attack our home and family, yet we are the savages? We are just as much xenophilic as we are xenophobic and we even gave them the choice as to which flavour they wanted and they're angry at their choice because we didn't just roll over and die but returned their barbarism in kind. I know it's an easy way for an author to ignite our righteous anger, but these guys deserve exterminatus.
@@unknown62211226 Attacking children is wrong, especially the unborn, but sometimes drastic measures must be taken to discourage your attacker, along with everyone else, from ever attacking you again. Also, I wonder if earth was a primarily civilian planet.
I kinda get where Daniel Awesome's coming from, but to me it's like a grand storyteller type feel. That said, I think a bit more distinction between who's speaking would help with listening. Often when listening to you I get lost and have to re listen to make sure I understand who said what, since all of them speak with the same "voice". In that way, it sounds more like a rambling grandad than a dialog. All that aside, I love your reading voice and just wanted to day keep up the work. (Also I know that this video is 9 months old at this point, but I still see it in newer vids, so I wanted to offer the suggestion)
Hate the lack of texting. When you need to be silent, like putting a baby to sleep that can take half hour or if english isnt your first language, then missing something is easy.. the lack of texting just remove you from the pool of some peoples choice. You have the text already so I'm assuming its due to lazyness.
