When They Announce WW3 Let's
Just Say 'Nah'

-- All of human
civilization is being organized around a
"great power competition" between the
US-centralized empire and the
China/Russia/Iran bloc, and that
"competition" stands to benefit ordinary
humans in no way, shape or form. It will
hurt all of us and help none of us.
There's no valid reason why powerful
nations can't simply work together toward
their mutual benefit. But it would mean the
US empire giving up its plans of total
global domination, so it's not even being
considered.
This conflict is slated to last
throughout the 21st century, and it already
has a massive body count. The war in Ukraine
is a direct result of this "great power
competition", and the economic warfare
between the empire and Russia will starve
many more. This is a terrible thing.
Our world is being steered toward a dark
and dangerous path full of impoverishment,
starvation and proxy warfare, and fraught
with the possibility of nuclear exchanges.
They're playing games with our lives, and
because we've bought into the propaganda,
we're letting them.

must remain the property of Washington, DC:
❖
One of the most asinine things about US
foreign policy is that there are Republican
wars and Democrat wars. Republicans
cheerlead more for escalations against China
and Iran while Democrats cheerlead more
against Russia and Syria. They each
facilitate different imperial agendas; when
Republicans were in power we saw the Iran
deal shredded, when Democrats took power we
saw the proxy war in Ukraine. When I
criticize US warmongering against China I
get Republican morons yelling at me and when
I criticize US warmongering against Russia I
get Democrat morons.
They each think their wars are better
than the other side's wars, but in reality
the opposing sides are an illusion and it's
all the same unified agenda: the agenda of
planetary domination. They're just trained
by propaganda to cheerlead more for
different aspects of that agenda.
❖
How about when they announce it's time
for World War III let's all just be like
"Nah, we're not doing that."
And then let’s build a healthy world.
❖
The prevailing worldview of our day would
have you ignore the unequaled criminality of
the most powerful government on earth to
focus on the far lesser criminality of
governments on the other side of the globe.
❖
Friendly reminder that the prospect of
revolution will become far more remote once
there are bulletproof AI-guided robot armies
who will fire upon locals without a moment's
hesitation. Revolution has a pretty
definitive use-by date.
❖
The more things heat up with the
Russia/China/Iran bloc the more we're going
to find ourselves hammered with culture war
wedge issue bullshit by the social engineers
of the oligarchic empire so we don't start
asking inconvenient questions and making
inconvenient demands. Inconvenient questions
like "Why are we being impoverished so that
you can wage a proxy war in Ukraine that we
stand nothing to gain from?" and
inconvenient demands like "Stop endangering
all our lives with nuclear brinkmanship or
we'll fucking eat you."
❖
The generation gap between Gen Z and
millennials is wider than any other
generation gap ever. Spending their entire
lives with their own culture online has made
them much more different from the rest of us
than we are from each other, so different we
can't really even grasp it.
They're inventing their own culture all
on their own and using their own means of
communication to express it. This culture is
developing exponentially faster than any
other in history, and we're completely out
of the loop with it because it's happening
silently on their screens.
And, I mean, thank fuck right? It's not
like we've been doing a great job holding
down the fort on this planet. If ever there
was a generation that needed a drastic
deviation from the previous trajectory, it's
this one.
❖
The world will never know peace as long
as there are systems in place which
financially incentivize war. Hoping for
peace without opposing those systems is like
jumping off a cliff and hoping gravity
doesn't do what it always inevitably does.
