Recreating the conditions of “broken homelands.” LOL no kidding. Would that the terrors of all those messed up nations had stayed on the other side of the Atlantic. Bringing their disease, oppressive religions and customs. The hypocrisy of rapacious settlers never ceases to shock.

X is like the house in disarray with a fridge full of rotten food that the ragged vestiges of humanity try to hide out in, but then zombies in the bedroom get out and come for them.
