Please Protect #Elephants From #Cruel #Rides
#Tourists, who often travel to #India to #appreciate the #wildlife, are #becoming #upset that #captive #elephants are still being used for #rides. And as #awareness of the #cruelty #involved #continues to #rise, a #growing #number of #travel #companies are making the #compassionate #decision to #dissociate themselves from any #activities that #exploit elephants.

Before power became a palace, a crown, or a government, it was something much simpler and far more durable:
a body held as collateral. #pledge #captive

# 1. Workers as Live-Test Subjects
Companies don’t just manage workers — they experiment on them. Every policy, incentive, and punishment is a behavioral trial. The workforce becomes a #captive study #population for refining control techniques that can later be automated, scaled, or sold.

I never feel good for blaming a sequel based on it not being "more of the same". Especially in the case of #Captive, which offered endless levels anyway, who would need that sort of thing? #Liberation: Captive II is highly ambitious, even moving to a different genre. Nevertheless, it's not nearly as good as its predecessor. Can you see beyond its technical shortcomings? What's more important: ambition or execution?
