My favorite one is the 'male thought' version of the National Anthem. The
uberpatriots could complain, but they might even get the joke.
You touched a raw nerve with the visualizing a peopleless planet thing.
The ironic thing is that Capital would never let such a thing happen, given
it's hard to turn a profit when everyone (instead of just the poor) are
dead.
And no, it's not ringing endorsement of Capital. Just an aberration that the
Market
doesn't factor in the value of eternity with the everVirginalGirlChicks of
paradise.
Related note is that I'm reading a novel about wild machine intelligences
out to
exterminate humanity. Interesting thing is that it takes place in the 15th
Century.
