No it doesn't. Just because people do start wars over most of those things doesn't mean they should. It only takes a little shift to a less insular perspective

No it doesn't. Just because people do start wars over most of those things doesn't mean they should. It only takes a little shift to a less insular perspective to realise that the world doesn't have to be that way.
- Veen 4y agoA shift that the vast majority of human beings who have ever lived have not made and will not make. Even if that shift were desirable, it's not going to happen. If you tell people that their nation is an irrelevant construct, most of them will tell you to FO.
- drcongo 4y agoCool, we should totally stick to killing each other over made up nonsense then.
- mantas 4y agoPeople are killing each other for very concrete things - territory, access to raw goods and the goods themselves, control of other people etc. Wether you remove flags or not, destroy states or not, that won't change. Just a wishful thinking like Fukuyama's end of history or countries with mcdonalds never going to war against each other.
