Really off topic (on my part) and 3 months late. But I couldn't help adding to this. It actually "might" be a true quote.According to an old (possibly apocryphal) quote:
Back in the 1980s, Yosemite National Park was having a serious problem with bears: They would wander into campgrounds and break into the garbage bins. This put both bears and people at risk. So the Park Service started installing armored garbage cans that were tricky to open -- you had to swing a latch, align two bits of handle, that sort of thing. But it turns out it's actually quite tricky to get the design of these cans just right. Make it too complex and people can't get them open to put away their garbage in the first place. Said one park ranger, "There is considerable overlap between the intelligence of the smartest bears and the dumbest tourists."
Really puts some context to Yogi Bear's claim about being smarter than the average bear.

This is allowed, yes. But is it pacifist way? Isn't that pacifists should be away from ANY form of aggression?I made a pacifist/xenophile empire whose entire raison d'etre was to use the devolution beam to turn everyone in the galaxy into presapients and then conserve them because they were also environmentalists.

Some Stellaris players like to emphasise the "fists" in "pacifists".This is allowed, yes. But is it pacifist way? Isn't that pacifists should be away from ANY form of aggression?
Would my take fall under the latter or the former, hm...
