      There is a millenia-old tradition of these knuckleheads getting used as cannon fodder and willing slaves for whoever’s willing to push the right buttons in their heads.

      Back when the village was a couple of hundred people, there was a whole set of behaviors that helped knit the whole tribe together under a single coherent leadership, and it worked really well. At this point, any thinking like that that anyone’s got going on is a pure liability, I think it’ll get bred out over time going forward (if we make it that far.)
