just keeps happening and happening I thought war was a thing of the past but I was wrong, must be a treadmill.

As long as there are people, there will be war.

There will always be someone that wants to take what someone else has by force.

I disagree I think as long as there are stupid people they will continue to fight each other to death.

Eventually people will be smart like me and they would never do something like that.

Truth is, when you know that war is a game that fools die in for stupid people that lie to them… then people will stop going to die in wars like idiots for liars.

I honestly have no respect for any veteran. Either they’re a fool or a psychopath. Either way I could give a shit about them.

There are people that donate their free time to feed people that I care about.

Generally yes my gut tells me there is a correlation between intelligence and compassion for societies at large. As we get smarter, we are less barbaric to each other. I know there’s a million examples of how tech can make the ones that aren’t capable of much more carnage, that should go without saying IMO. But by compassion I still don’t believe in the idea of never-ending unconditional compassion. That’s not an intelligent position to take IMO

It’s not so much of a compassion issue it’s that only dumb people who don’t know the truth are the ones that will go and fight.

If you have a brain you know that you will be in pain and you will die and you will get nothing from the VA and no one will care about you and corrupt people will just do fucked up shit anyways.

As soon as everybody realizes that then they’ll stop going to fight for people that don’t give a crap about them.

Right now the only reason people fight is because they’re stupid and soon people won’t be stupid because we’ll put computers in our brains and evolve to more pressing issues.

Like I know that you’re like ‘oh but there will always be some army’ but what I’m trying to tell you is that no there won’t be, one day everybody will be so smart that there will never be an army because anyone who tries to make one will just be laughed at.

Yea a lot of systems require a unified trust in the system or they fall apart

But if we separate war from it and go broader, there are things in life that even really smart people would put above their own lives. Now this is of course on paper, when the time comes do they follow through with risking their life on their convictions? Yea some of them will

Think about it like this there’s two engineers and they’re trying to build a bridge. Because there’s two of them it’s much easier to exchange ideas and come up with the best plan of action.

But with government we have like 320 million people, and most of them are really dumb.

So it’s like next to impossible to get them to all agree on anything.. more than half of them are suggesting ideas that don’t even have to do with engineering.

People are getting mad because they don’t know the difference between engineering and the crazy shit that they’re talking about.. and so some other guy is like, well let’s get in a fight! and then some of the dumbest people are like yeah let’s do that!

And now you’re warring.

But if there’s a scenario where everyone can have a raised IQ and be aware of all of the things that everyone else is aware of then you could have 320 million people that are as easy to communicate with each other as the two engineers.

The worlds government, economy, energy, food exchange, there is one way to manage it so that it’s fair and equitable for every single person… but until we’re smart enough that we can all agree on that one way we’re gonna fight about it.

We’ll try different ways and succeed for a while, and then fail, and well try other ones, but one day, we’ll find the one way.

I truly believe that one day we will be smart enough to agree, every single one of us.
