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

@Deleted User True but it could've got out of hand

Both of those countries are quiet.

there is a mounting IS resurgency in iraq though.

If it were not for the cold war the US wouldn't reach the moon until possibly a few decades later.

Nope.

Who agrees with @Mr. X ?

Everyone, hopefully

lol

War always sets nations back.

Accelarate the downfall of America

We spend our money on military assets.
