Less aggression please???
I would like to see more scientific innovation in the areas of killing aggression, and less of it going towards the killing of people. Ok scientists, get on that right away! Maybe it can be a chemical delivery system that makes everyone passive and peaceful! Think Equilibrium, but much less sinister...

Be careful what you wish for. Keep in mind aggression is a base instinct that allows those who are willing and able, to defend those who might not be. I understand that this seems like a double-edged sword. Aggression is instigated by those, whom you assume, are being influenced by testosterone to commit an aggressive act. When in reality those driven to commit violent acts are not primarily influenced by testosterone. Much of their aggressive tendencies can be traced back to psychological influences (trauma, psychological or physical of sorts). I know where you're coming from in all that but most women are still attracted to men that exhibit some of these tendencies for a reason. ;) Whose gonna save the world when/if we're actually ever invaded by say an alien species? The men wearing pink hoodies? Talking about patriarchy an what-not? Me thinks not...
I get it, but if aliens attack, we are fucked no matter what! And if ALL aggression could be eradicated, then there would be no need for self defense. Also, assuming you could even graze an alien vessel, why couldn't we hit them with the pacification juice :)
You've obviously never seen Demolition Man or Independence Day. Everyone knows that's how an alien attack could be fought and won!! ;)
Hmm, I saw both! But anyway, ya I'm not so sure anything could phase a specie that has mastered faster than light travel :)
Yeah Demolition Man was a different but similar topic related to this. Doesn't make sense when i come to alien attack! lol. Oh yeah maybe Signs would be a better comparison. All you need is some aggression, a baseball bat. Mix in a little water and bam! ;)
good post :)
Scientists invented Valium and that was supposed to be the end of it. Then they came out with Fox News.
Hmm, perhaps we need some sort of irresistible candy that makes people non-violent! Maybe make it mild enough so people can't overdose on it. Hmm, herbal candy? ;)
Oh yeah, sure. Then the whole country gets overrun by Jazz musicians.
Not on my watch. M.A.G.A!
HA!
