User blog comment:The Milkman/Reaper Logic/@comment-5030041-20120425001034

the reapers are simply keeping a galactic balance; giving all organics species a chance to evolve. Evolution still runs the universe, but the reapers keep it in check (in our galaxy, at least). They consider this to be a favor, which objectively, is pretty deep. When a specie gets to a point, it becomes dangerous to itself (synthetics could mean nuclear bombs and other electronic waste, making a vague reference to technological dangers to organics, besides just war with AIs). The synthetic races of past cycles probably got a reaper body with no argument, since their logic would see this united consciousness as a gain. Being organics (as well as individualists) we are resistant to the reapers. The Deus Ex Human revolution ending is similar to this one: decide if the benefits (and dangers) of technology are worth the cost, or we can go without it (amish mentality)

However if the IT is true, then everything Im saying is void and maybe Im just indoctrinated.
