The only need is attention. Even the ones that retreat to the ends of the earth know that in the end, people will talk about the hermit. The woman at the end of the bar waits for someone to buy her a drink. The boy knocks his own bike over so that mommy will check his wounds. The girl deflowers herself. The young man tells his locker-room friends. The man buys a Porsche. To cut off a nation? Dont starve them. Dont embargo trade. Dont nuke them.

Ignore them.
