about something
I would be an anarchist otherwise, and in my heart I am, but I understand too much about system dynamics to enjoy the bliss of ignorance
I belive that the world does need a world peace keeper like the US
I'm pro Pax Americana, for earth and for the US
WE don't need rest of the world in an arms race with each other
Anarchic is bad and truly impossible to accomplish
You can have it, if you extend the principle in ways socialists and syndicalists do
well race creates competition which creates tech
they focus on the realistic implications, instead of the ideolism of liebrtarianism, which ignores the real world consequences of large corporations, etc
im not so pro-american
nah you don't need an arms race for technology at all, it gives you a certain type of tech
People always look to have power and thats how small groups start forming until u get a goverment again
the tech growth comes from loose credit and experimentation
@Sh0t yep u need
thats how planes got invented
jet airplanes
people invent for all sorts of reasons, logistics people invent all the time
the advances get borrowed into the military sphere sometimes, sometimes the other way
war makes people more productive
the root issue is the credit expansion to fuel the experiments, you can't 'legislate' innovation
you need 50 experiments in parallel, some fail, some stick around and change the game
war is sometimes helpfull in the long run to humanity
it's an emergent phenomenom
without war some things wouldnt exist
like medicine
u get the best of humans but also the worst
@tuna hair extensions true
Peope are scared to die, medicine was always going to advance
well yeah
but war pushed its develpment
but that doesnt mean war is good
War just shifts the attention from one area to another
less on chronic, more on acute trauma
there is no free lunch, same with credit bubbles
im anti world peace not only because it is impossible but because it is bad for society
look at what the 'fuel race' did, now we are paying for it with carbon emissions
are you an Iron Mountain person?
Im not sure about we being the cause of climate change
GG @Hunter1300, you just advanced to level 4!
be sure about my friend, thermodynamics cannot be cheated
civilization is a heat engine, we can only radiatie away so much waste heat
