    Yeah - I don’t really know much about the ultimate goals of the group that was behind it, but it doesn’t seem like a bad idea to plan for what happens after an apocalypse, considering that we’ve been on the verge of an apocalypse since the 60s.

        Welp. I was not expecting the eugenics angle, but in retrospect, I absolutely should have been. I mean, it was the 80s in fucking rural Georgia, of all places. Obviously, it was commissioned by a David Duke fan.

        That does, however, make the whole Satanic Panic thing pretty god damned hilarious. I mean, the people freaking out about it are the same people who would have been 100% on-board with the group who commissioned it’s politics. Guess they’re just miffed they weren’t consulted 10 years before they were born.

        Edit: I think the thing that threw me off the eugenics scent in the first place was just that it was translated into several different languages, including Arabic, Hindi, Swahili, Hebrew, and Chinese. It doesn’t seem like the type of thing that David Duke fans would think to do.
