For some reason, people seem to hate the truth. They find comfort in ignorance, but get lost in it, swallowed up by the void, until they're just hollow shells with just barely a flicker of free thought left. It is a virus, swift and deadly, spreading rapidly, threatening our world as it has time and time again over the centuries. As the fire of knowledge burns higher, the void creeps closer. Those caught between fire and darkness must choose, but darkness lures people in, and no fire can hope to match the witty guile of the void. And so fantasy wins yet again, the narrative changes, the story is rewritten, and the people enjoy it, because it is comforting, it is logical, it feels right. And they believe in it, so deeply that they hold it to be the truth, and hold on to it in the face of overwhelming evidence. They are proud of their ignorance. They ignore the truth because it disturbs them, ignore the man behind the curtain because he sent them off to a different one, attack the opposition, and stuff anything too scary to consider safely down a memory hole. Their tactics are endless, their numbers are countless, and their resources are legendary. It is your job to fight this horde. Your job to strike them down.
