What's the mood like? Are people excited to plug in and kill the baddies? Or is it just another day in the office yada yada Mondays are the worst? Do you prefer operators with previous gaming experience? Were there ever any operators that refused mission orders? how hard would it be for someone(higher ranking) to override an operators mission?
As if we can allow that to happen. My guess is some CIA backed Afghani Death Squad can go on murdering sprees causing unrest, so we can I told you so roll eyes 'savages'.
What's 'code red' mean? Did we pass amber? Is purple the next stage? I love our obsession with coloring our alarms. I wanna see indigo on there next if you're listening designer.
Don't be surprised. Our journalists grew up on Cold War propaganda. They don't hire people from the 'other' team. I don't see the Western public ever breaking free from their IC narratives. Imagine a news report on the good deeds Russia/Iran/China do, automatic label of foreign state propaganda.
'Otherwise reasonable' does not negate ignorance and we are overflowing with ignorance thanks to our journalism(propaganda). Logic is some math term which automatically gets trashed because lolol im no good at math who needs that stuff amirite?.
People often forget how dramatically things changed in the years after the attack.
Or I suppose some people just weren't alive to witness the changes! It was a long time ago, bizarrely enough. It feels recent. Perhaps in part because it's still so relevant.
So because people kill people, machines should be allowed to kill people? not even logical, I can see an argument being valid as in why shouldn't machines kill other machines. why do you think machines should be allowed to kill people?

This argument is fatecious and irrational. You can argue whether it's acceptable to kill. Beyond that it makes rigorously no difference whether you kill someone with your bare hands or by pressing a button.
Why do you think they shouldn't be allowed? We have been using machines to kill for a very long time, and this is the first I'm hearing of someone having an ethical problem with the fact that the killing is not done with bare hands.
There may be ethical questions in war, but I don't see why the mechanisms should matter. Perhaps it should but you haven't even come close to making that case.
No offence, but that’s such a back-to-front interpretation of my simple question, it’s almost like you were trying to be contrary.
Maybe my bad for assuming that any reasonable person reading wouldn’t need it stating that killing people is, yes, immoral. And given this shared understanding, the root of my question was why a machine killing people is more immoral.
Can't believe the time we live in, people putting themselves under willful surveillance and seriously cheering their own censorship. I gotta get off the internet, what a craphole.
By the same way Iraq had WMDs. Spam daily articles with 'expert sources' that ride on your viewers emotional states. It's a 'Chinese' virus the same way it was a 'Spanish' flu a century ago. You keep spamming us with finger pointing though, we will fall for it eventually. What's pathetic is that it works.
