The biggest problem with our lack of emotional sobriety on the topic of war is that the financial interests of warmongers are served by our denial and distractedness. Who will reap the karma there - just them, or will it not be all of us?

Case in point: the US Air Force has ordered 100 B21 raiders, a bomber that costs $560M each and drops nuclear as well as conventional bombs. 5 of those and it’s over for civilization as we know it, 10 and it’s over for the species. So obviously we do not need 100 of those planes.
