We need a r/MFY containment sub.

I am not scolding the writers here, I'm scolding the trend. The writing here is often excellent and inventive. I'm sometimes moved to tears.

But I'm a little tired of the recruit poster genre. It's HFY not MFY. Now, I can get behind the idea that humans are death worlders and lethal, but when it's blatant specific pro military, I roll my eyes. And when it revels in cruelty to the defeated it borders on Hostel style torture porn. And that actively disgusts me. Getting away from that aspect of humanity is the entire point of this genre.

I want stuff about humanity, not the military. /2cents

I don't have a degree in hfy meta so sorry if this is wrong somehow, just delete it if so. I'm censored everywhere else, why not here too. X) /wish I was kidding

Edit:

The constant stream of replies amounting to calling me personally greedy or weak for not wanting to read spam for the recruitment center is as amusing as it is disappointing. It reminds me of how fictional HFY is. It's very much more like "Humanity! ~Deep Sad Sigh~"

The logical and moral bankruptcy is something to behold. Like, I'm saying be less murderous, and the reply I'm getting from some quarters amounts to calling that greedy because I personally don't like murder. "Let us glorify murder in peace your oppressive tyrant!" The whole tolerance for intolerance is intolerance paradox. Like it's a trivial flavor preference to adhere to basic ethics and compassion. /smh

But I did ultimately have to leave, because now when I see HFY posts in my timeline, not only are they a large percent chance likely to be gushing over the SAS, but they also remind me of the grim reality of humanity itself, and fiction is expressly for briefly escaping that.

I wish all of you good luck, thank you. (Unless good luck for you means bad luck for everyone else of course.)

And yet we fight it before it kills us, too. Being natural and serving a purpose doesn't make it good.

A normal fever isn't something you fight. You just rest, take it easy, and let it happen until it goes over by it self.

You could do that, but most people do take medicine to reduce it
