The American narrative is to celebrate G.I. Joe and might makes right.  I have no time for that argument because death, destruction, and pain makes argument about fact and points of view moot. I want this thread to fight the G.I. Joe narrative.  Not all Americans are knuckle-draggers.  Sadly too many of us are.

Doom Philosophy

Commonly doom is considered an emotional state which a person has.  Has like a common cold.  A personal problem unrelated to the outside world.  The Diner takes a different position.  We do not consider doom to be a state of mind.  Doom is a fact.
