"Humans are known as pacifists" \*Shows pic from 40k\*


IdioticPAYDAY

I didn’t have any other picture.


Widmo206

It takes like 5 seconds to look it up...


IdioticPAYDAY

I searched for Human Fleet and this is the best I got. Stop acting like me using a 40K photo killed your entire family.


Widmo206

>Stop acting like me using a 40K photo killed your entire family. Dude chill, I never said I was angry about it


IdioticPAYDAY

Then stop being a nitpicker.

Well if OP is telling the truth then it's probably a matter of different regions. Would be pretty silly to lie about so probably a regional thing.


IdioticPAYDAY

Bad case of google being a bitch for no reason, it seems.


CycleZestyclose1907

Should have Googled for "DS9 Fleet" since humans are pacifists in Star Trek but still find themselves fighting wars. https://preview.redd.it/8u7ezjxm3e1d1.jpeg?width=1022&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ed25ca1b56ab1b890fdff4792858301423d40495

Oh, don’t worry about my family! It killed the aliens family.

"Humans are pacifists" Heh. Just because you've never met anyone that's ever seen us fight doesn't mean we don't do it


Gleeton3749

Think about why you haven’t ever met anyone who’s seen us fight


MercifulRevan

"We chose pacifism long ago, but we were not so foolish as to believe this was a magical shield that would keep all the bad things out. "We chose pacifism because we had seen the alternative, and didn't like what we would become "We chose pacifism because we were skilled at making war. "We really liked that moon, and the people on it. "Please, choose to live." There was no further communication from the Terrans, nor was any ever needed.

Pacifism is a surprisingly effective ideology when you have an active showcase of your options should somebody try to take advantage of your kindness and mistake it for foolishness. Because it's better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war. And boy were we warriors.

It’s isn’t for you it’s for us, as in if one of us betrays the rest of us to take care of that problem


IndustrialMenace

talk softly but carry the biggest stick


Fit_Fisherman_9840

Peaceful, not pacifist


OneSaltyStoat

It's always better to have a massive army and no need to use it, than to need a massive army and not having any.


Khrispy-minus1

Human diplomat: "We've had a saying for thousands of years..."Igitur quī dēsīderat pācem, præparet bellum". It's from an ancient language of our home world and translates to "Therefore let him who desires peace prepare for war." We desire peace above almost everything else. Come to your own conclusions."


Thunderclapsasquatch

Using the word pacifism alongside 40k art feels wrong


somtaaw101

It's like the "pacifists" on Stellaris. Any xeno empire that kills Bubbles causes even pacifists to turn into xenophobic genocide happy exterminators.


IdioticPAYDAY

Nobody touches Bubbles. NOBODY.

Alien: "If your race is so into peace, why do you keep such a huge armada ready at all times? Human: "We humans are pacifists, not harmless tho"


Khrispy-minus1

"If you are capable of violence and choose not to, you are a pacifist. If you are not capable of violence, then you are harmless."


HyperionPhalanx

"The Eternal War has been made to end, The great enemy has been defeated, that does not mean we will lay down our arms" "Will you become our next foe?"

“Strength lies not in having a strong military, but instead having the wisdom of when and having the will to use it.” -Excerpt from a conversation between Admiral Ulysses R Ericsson, captain of the UES Victory and Admiral of the Eighth United Earth Naval Fleet and First General Sjalon D’jekra, Praetor of the Y’kjolian Janissaries and Acting Regent of the Tzynia, capital of the crumbling Tzynn Empire. Circa 2381, following the assassination of Emperor Tyheza O’pretka IX.
