a bit OT this reminds me of Larry Niven's (RIP) excellent story about human's first encounter with the Kzin, an aggressive extraterrestrial race.

"At the time all knowledge of warfare and violence had been suppressed by ARM, yet [the human crew] was able to target the Tracker [Kzin ship] with the ship's communication's laser and destroy it with a well directed blast from the ship's drive"
Since aggression had been wiped out by the earth's governments the ship's crew needs psychological help after this gruesome experience (killing the foe, that is)

Judge Dredd. The Stallone version from 1995, not the newer, more brutal British film from 2012 (titled "Dredd").


Its frightening to see how close present reality has come to that comedy by Stallone. Including New-Speak and nutrition tyranny.
