Putin and Xi have to be in cahoots. It’s a WWII dynamic with new/similar players who really have had enough of the U.S.
So, WWIII. Fucking humans.
Will this need to dominate and exert influence ever evolve into something less consequential for the majority of us who just want to live our lives in relative peace? Why this unquenchable desire to prevail and control and inflict unjustified and horrific suffering, and death?
We’re all expendable. We’re all paying the price for leaders who could always pursue plans for actual peace and cooperation and sharing but decide instead that they need to compare dick sizes and claim bragging rights.
All the stuff we’re taught growing up—about sharing and being nice? It’s all useless at the macro level, just irrelevant and naïve.
