    The difference would be the tech and the ocean of media it all floats in.

      LOL the bloodlust, the pain and the death are all the same. The technology and the media don’t change that and they never will. They’re irrelevant.

        Sure they do, the tech makes it all the more deadly and impersonal. You get remote oppression, deadly robots, big bombs, but also precision death - your own personal haunting, as you are chased to death by a small drone with a gun.

        The media in which this happens is a constant source of alienation and insanity from all the isolation and subjective experience. You don’t even get to commiserate and your cries of horror and pain aren’t just muffled, they’re inverted and turned into fantasy fulfillment and marketing materials.

        All of this is also more efficient, faster, better, smarter, bigger, and thus you have nowhere to really hide.

        You rarely get to see your killer, to face them, to look into their eyes. The same goes for them; to them you’re not an enemy, you’re a pest. They don’t see you, they see a few moving pixels on a screen, at best.

          Nothing you’ve said here is about a difference in bloodlust, pain or death.

          the tech makes it all the more deadly

          I’ve no idea what “it” you’re referring to. You’re introducing some new concept which isn’t what we were communicating about.
