This is likely a strange request but since plenty of minds exist here, I should make use of them...


How exactly do you simulate murdering someone on an internet forum or on social media?

Example:
Say you have two involved in a digital fight and one loses. How do you digitally kill the losing party?

I ask as I'm pondering a means to simulate the rule of two in a virtual environment, among other things.

Um you don't?

Otherwise look at cancel culture if you want i guess that would be the repeated attempt at ideological murder. It's cost many their careers, I wold say that's the closest it gets.

Murder is not a thought that should be entertained IMHO.

Don't push too hard on things like this they don't serve you well.

Did you fail to understand the definition of SIMULATE? How about "digital" or "virtual"? Honestly!

No, playing a video game isn't going to suffice. There needs to be a real challenge, risk, betrayal, use of manipulation and intellect.

The game of Risk? That fits all those criteria.

Playing a board game isn't going to cut it, though perhaps such game playing would be useful in a trial. Beyond that, it's insufficient to simulate what I'm proposing.

Unlikely.

Kind of. I'm a bit of a troll too, so maybe we have found kinship in that. Stranger things have happened.
