I was playing a LoL match and suddenly get drag down into some inferior shit. This could happen anywhere, in real life, on a social media, not neccessary a video game, but it suddenly allowed me to realize something.
Human lives in a great minefield, everyone is creating land mine everywhere and trying to trap anyone else. Frankly, I can't help but think it is a good thing as it acts as a natural selection with greater pressure. Video games, and any other pleasant pitfalls are the carefully crafted land mines for careless people to step in, and human flesh and bones are highly profitable. One can only stay sane if they stay away from such land mine.
Nowadays, everything has integrated a communication system. Communication is an important part of human as it crucially aids civilization tion development. Besides productive communications, there are always pointless argues and confrontations, but most of these argues exist in casual talks but not in thoughtful discussion. IMHO, not every platform need a communication system by default. I am happy to turn off communication in some places, just like a library, especially when we are in a minefield, or already stepped on the trap.
People who steps on the trap start to talk the most. But the only useful thing they've done is that they've talked that much that help me to realized we're on a minefield. A few years ago, I read somewhere saying that adults are stealing the future from the children, and I had estrong feeling that this is true. But after arguing with young people online, my belief in that statement have dramatically plummeted. People have stepped in some traps, or a human grinder, but they don't realize it. They OCCUPY it until all of them are already torpedoed. The only things I do are: (1) Don't talk when I see it, (2) Stay away from them, and (3) Thank the mine planters who have create such natural selection.
