190: The Weaponization of Tragedy

Talk Back to Me

Decentralization will have its consequences, and to centralized authority, it will look like collapse. This comes with a warning. A suicide deemed martyrdom on one side of the globalized country may radicalize the actions of another, who takes it out on innocent children. This is the underground precursor to holy war, only one half of the equation doesn't necessarily believe they are religious to begin with. 

The death of Nex Benedict, named Dagny by her parents, could have been the catalyst as described above, only once the details came out, they told a very different story. 

Instead of a Martyr, Dagny may have been the bully, or at least likely had the attitude of one, using their claimed gender identity as justification and power in the matter. Tragically, she took her own life. 

Never let a good tragedy go to waste? We typically approach this phrase with the assertion that a person's interest in a particular tragedy is only opportunistic. 

However, the weaponization of tragedy is much darker, and more dangerous. The seeds of a holy war of unholy proportions.
