There are many countries around the world investing in their militaries. It makes me think of checkov’s rule, “if a gun is introduced into the plot, it will be used”
That’s paraphrasing a bit. Chekov’s rule is about conservation of narrative real estate, no about the gun itself. It wasn’t even consistently true of his own works. The real world is not a stage play and armies created for deterrence don’t need to be used.
I’m looking forward to the deus ex machina part. Could we just skip to that part? Or no, how about my favourite plot device, where we wake up and realize it was all just a dream? Maybe we could just do that
I’m just waiting for roll credits so I know who to blame for this unwatchable mess
