Would you curiosity win? Or would the fear of death win?

If you’ve watched Avatar, I’m talking about city like Ba Sing Se, but IRL.
I’d tell myself I’m going to do it, but chicken out.
Nice try, raider. I’m staying in the vault.
Would you clean?
I want to go out.
I think there are too many factors to account for to give a good answer.
But realistically: If the walled city was stable (relative to what I knowz I can only compare things to what I know and have experienced) and my life was alright or better then or course I would stay. If I had kids in that city I would probably stay.
If it was a shitty life inside those walls, of course I would find a way to stealthily leave.
It depends on the danger I was told about. If it was poisoned gas like Bad Boy Bubby then I don’t think so. If it was just there are dangerous or violent people out there then maybe.
If there were rumours that the outside world wasn’t actually dangerous that might have swayed me when I was younger but probably not now.
Y’all should watch Silo.
Depends on if the colossal Titan and armored Titan breaks through the wall. And I become radicalized at the sight of my mother being eaten that forces me to bring about the downfall of all humanity.
“I want to kill all titans!”
ended up trying to annihilate most of humanity
(Knife goose meme) What are the walls made of? WHAT ARE THE WALLS MADE OF MOTHERFUCKER??
*80% of humanity
Is that you, Eren?
I thought the same thing!!
Yeah, had the same thought. Attacking on Titan, Eren vibe.
OP go watch the movie The Village
Or pretty recent, The Silo. Its very good but it’s mostly* only on APPLE TV
- 🏴☠️
Yeah Silo is pretty good, second season was a little slow but still good.
Also it’s based on books!
It’s called New Jersey since those people can’t pump their own gas, they can’t venture into the rest of America haha.
I mean, they could. They would just have to take a bus lol
That’s funny
I’d suspect there’s something I’m not being told but I wouldn’t be brave enough to find out
Absolutely. I was teaching English with Mormons in Kiev, UA in 2014 (as a volunteer, I am not Mormon). The nonprofit we were with stressed to us that we should absolutely, under no circumstance, go to Maidan (city center). This was when the revolution was just starting. Of course I went anyway.
At least when I was in Ukraine at that time, all the discord was contained within Maidan and the eastern regions. Life elsewhere went on as usual. I’m not sure if it is the same now. But it felt like going between two worlds.

Same, I’ve learned the hard way ignorance is bliss. If I am content I wouldn’t try. What’s the saying “As long as someone has hope, they have everything to lose” or something.
Personally? Probably not. Im not much of a rebel or confident enough to push a boundary like that
But we kinda have something like that irl.
If i remember right
The Amish think technology is evil but some leave and embrace the modern world despite that
Shit. There are no walls keeping me in, and no one is telling me the world outside is dangerous, but I barely ever leave anyway. When I do leave, it’s only to a small handful of relatively close places where I feel comfortable.
Got “Freedom Cities” on the mind, eh?
