too many rising powers that are hostile to each other

the situation is excellent

And humans are best in hives rather than in one big hive with multiple problems

Ask @Deleted User why globalism is currently impossible.

i only see two sects to be honest.

It shouldn't be attempted
internationalism is a waste of time and resources that only destroys cultures tbh

lenin was right (like he always is) about imperialism fellas

the whole structure would fall today.

what was lenins position on imperialism

I wish peace could be achieved though. But humanity at it's current state shows no such signs.

rising powers would inevitably have war with each other because they compete for resources through imperialism

We're currently in the most peaceful time in human history.

that is certainly an incorrect statement

Yet we still fight.

i would argue we have entered a second cold war

We will always fight, but there are no wars.

And it will remain that way for a long time.

For the first time ever.

there are many wars at the moment

Only civil wars yes.

Not even proxy wars.

well i mean a second cold war is more peaceful than we usually had

there are many proxy wars

Those will die off eventually.

once nuke defense systems become effective enough cold wars will end

but they have not yet

and convential wars will begin

Where's the proxy war at?

Syria

Libya

Yemen

Oh yeah, give that another week.

a *week*?

yeah literally a proxy war with russia and the united states in syria

Wars will most likely always exist for humanity

and russia won lol

That's a huge step from Afghanistan/Iraq.

wars like the cold war are good, competition is needed to keep a society healthy

afghanistan still tbh

Not at all.

iraq ended last year
