"Yeah, he was a jackass. The shit he promised. I'm telling you. He had to start the war. Only excuse to increase military funding by 75%"
English
-
"Holy shit. How much money went to you guys?"
-
"About 978 billion. We got more innovative technology. But Medicare was cut by 79%. Shittiest move ever."
-
"Damn that's really rough."
-
"Hey took millions from us. Everyone wanted him dead. Then before we could vote him out, the war started and we got distracted."
-
"How come no one assassinated him?"
-
"He had the military protecting him 24/7. He used every intimidation tactic in the book. The ban on guns made it tougher for people to do anything."
-
"What a filthy coward"
-
"And yet he restored a sense of national pride in our country. When our neighboring country attacked he was quick to declare war. Don't know why they attacked, they were our main allies. But, we quickly got the troops ready and launched our attack. We went days on fighting. Bombings, gunfire, some went on for hours without stopping. Then it took a turn for the worst, and I left."
-
"So you started losing? Is that it?"
-
"No, the battle was mostly a stalemate. But, I couldn't stand looking at the bodies of my fellow soldiers. Searching through the wreckage of buildings only to find the dead bodies of innocent civilians. I couldn't stand what I saw. Who was paying the price all because of a corrupt leader."
-
"It's war. War is terrible."
-
"I know but. It wasnt what I was expecting it to be. Should've ended monthes ago. But, it still rages on."
-
"I'm sorry. At least got out."
-
"Yeah, I got pretty lucky. I was able to steal a transport ship and get the hell out."
-
"Wait you actually stole a ship to escape? Cool."
-
"All transportation sites were closed. Soldiers were commanded to never leave their post. But I said -blam!- it and escaped."
-
"Shit man that's so dope."
-
"It was. Tough to fly, but was better than dying for no reason."
-
"True. True."
-
"So, what's your story? How'd you end up here?"
-
"I came from a planet somewhat like yours. We had a war, that got so bad the entirety of the surface became a radiation zone. No one was able to actually survive up there. I wanted to breath fresh air. So I built a make shift ship and got here."
-
"Interesting, pretty cool you know how to build a ship to get out."
-
"I was an engineer once. So."
-
"Nice, I started working as a mechanic, never worked with any type of flying machine. Then I had to defuse bombs. Our enemy would always drop bombs on places. Then using the cover of night plant land mines and other explosives."
-
"Huh. That's clever. They probably did the same though right?"
