    I would rather not find out. There’s too many wars and too many lives lost on this planet already.

      Refusing to meet bad actors with unified strength and yes, violence when necessary, only encourages more bad actors and actions.

      This is a universal truth too many in our peaceful time have forgotten, and so the wheel is turning back towards authoritarianism and violence.

          Who’s “we”?

          But, sure, sometimes everyone is. And sometimes we’re not.

          Nothing is black and white, and anyone who pretends otherwise is either a simpleton or is selling you something.

            No, that belief is just a coping strategy. You haven’t studied history enough. England dominated over 80% of the world’s population at it’s height. The USA broke from England over economics, primarily the crown’s intention to reform or end slavery and the crown’s restraining the colonial genocide machine from killing everyone on the continent. For almost 700 years white, European society has been traveling around the world raping, torturing, enslaving, extracting, and exploiting all of the world’s people. Every story the white European society tells about some evil doer elsewhere is primarily propaganda (true or not) to justify its continued vile dominance.

            There is no future for human society that doesn’t involve dismantling everything the Europeans built on the backs of the global majority. Every current and former colony, every economic system, every legal system, every social institution, every religion - it all needs to be dismantled and rebuilt by the world’s people in accordance with the needs of those people. There is only one empire and it traces its history all the way back to Rome. It must be ended. Anyone who pretends otherwise is an apologist.

        You’re right, every free nation must unite against the plague of western imperialism.

        You do realize the US is the world’s worst Empire and thus the one peddling authoritarianism and violence, right?

        Those are some multilayered weasel words and winged words. What are you trying to sell?
