Decommissioned But Clever Anti-Phantom Rant

[bluntpencil2001]

I'm the opposite.

I'm not a fan of the whole monolithic evil thing, really... it strikes me as unrealistic.

However, there are a lot of examples of such unrealistic political evil in fiction, so that's okay, I guess, with the Phantoms.

Here's the rub:

Bad guys are bad. Phantoms die a lot too. You don't see them whinging with references to Descartes, Marx, Plato or Jose Cuervo Especial when they lose.

You could have avoided it by being in a different system. Or begging, maybe. If you didn't beg, it's the crew's fault. If it's ooRP for you to beg, it's ooRP for Phantoms to be anything but evil.

Nae joy.
