You can't assume what you want, the facts on the ground are clear, we are moving to drones, AI, robots. And the nations who don't move that direction will not have a chance to fight any war due to the asymmetry in the cost. It wou

I think we reached the end of your arguments because we are repeating. As I said, I don't think this is the same as the past, not even close. You can't assume the same results from a very different preconditions, yet you keep doin

I actually have zero believe in the rationality of the leaders, you only need to listen to one speech to see the irrationality. However, systems don't care about people irrationality, it will force them to behave in certain ways. We ar

You don't think the absurdity of drone vs drone economic warfare coupled with the reduction in global energy will reduce the probability of future wars? I actually think it will. Because in the examples you gave, the world was not as c

Agreed. Unfortunately, diplomatic conflict resolution is prone to failures and the cost of failure is really really high. What Iran is doing is telling the empire that their war has a cost on their economy and reputation. And the only reaso

Today yes, unfortunately. But my argument is for the future that we are starting to get a glimpses of. I'm not negating the currently genocides, I'm hoping for a future in which we don't have war at all due to the absurdly of

So what are you advocating? you either vote a better future or want to keep what we currently have. You either agree with the future I suggest or disagree, or you think it won't happen and you would then have to argue why.

Regarding your commend on energy, I think it is actually an argument on my point that fighting wars is going to be even more absurd. If the world is running short of energy then fighting a war that further consumes energy without clear win

I understand your pessimism, but with all due respect, your argument is weak. I didn't say our preferences, voting, or opinions will change the system. I believe the system is being reshaped by new technology and a shifting world order

You are arguing today. This is the first kind of wars we are seeing of this nature. But Iran is hitting exactly where it hurts, global supply chain, and now the US will be pressured by the global economy to either retreat or commit a genoci

You didn't understand my point. I said in the future (not now) the world might trend to having wars similar to those of playing video games. And I said this might be better because we just give politicians another medium for conflict r

Well, because they reject the idea of making a war a physical video games of drones, therefore, they would be advocating keeping the current system? My point was that we are better off with abstracting away the war, so if you downvote that

Yes exactly. Like an arm wrestle, those who can demonstrate they have the better swarms, better AI, better supply chain, better innovation, win the war. And the other nation surrender. There is for resolving extreme national conflicts. If o

I know it is not. I'm just saying in the future if all became drones war and we disallow genocide, then what do you think will happen? Of course I acknowledge real life is lost right now, all I'm saying give politicians a video ga

You either agree or disagree with the idea of genocide. And if you disagree with idea of genocide, then this is becoming closer to video games as more drones are deployed which is my thesis. But if you agree with the idea of genocide, then

The majority of nations? majority of people on earth? We are going to a multilateral world and to win a war you need secure the appeal of majority. If the majority think your war is illegal they can cut you off from the world economy. It is

Yes, but what you are missing the cost of total elimination of the other side. For example, in Iraq, Saddam was able to use chemical weapons and wipe out the resistance, this is no longer an accepted solution by majority of people on earth.
