We tend to think of separate wars: Israel versus Hamas, Russia versus Ukraine, China versus whomever in the future or Iran versus whomever in the future and so forth. 1/7

But that’s not the clearest perspective for the 21st-century. The bigger picture is war itself versus the survival of our species. 2/7

Think of all the money spent by the United States, China, Russia, Iran, the nations of Europe, Saudi Arabia and so forth…trillions of trillions…then think what the world would look like if all that money went to furthering the cause of humanity. 4/7

Some people think it’s fantasy and naiveté to think we could even consider the possibility of a world without war. 5/7

I think what’s naïve is to think humanity will even survive for another hundred years if we don’t at least try. 6/7

We should imagine a world without war within 100 years, and reverse engineer from there. Our biggest task of the 21st century is to learn to wage peace. marianne2024.com/issues/us-d… 7/7

Ending violence in the United States and the planet requires more than suppressing violence. Lasting peace requires active and systematized cultivation.

So, nothing is worth defending? Nothing is worth fighting for? Please reach out to the aqn, prc, putin, & hamas about peace at all cost. There was a time and places where peaceful people peacefully did what they were told & butchered for it- 1943 Dachau, Aushwitz, Buchenwald.

It’s ok to mention the M/I complex. Your followers know. Nothing changes until that is dismantled. Also, the entity that does bizdev work for that complex needs to be reconfigured at the top.

To wage peace we need to replace hate with love.

There can be a world without war, but unfortunately Marianne’s methods are not how to achieve it. Whilst Russia and/or China win or think they can, there’ll be danger. When Iran, isis etc think the can act without punishment, likewise. Same with all autocracies.

Literally what Attack on Titan is about. Also the only way to defeat war is to defeat our systems of greed. War came with the rise of Kings, as Socrates said all wars are the acquisition of wealth. Build a Foundation that challenge that. #6'Elon

That’s great but “how” will too do that knowing there are zillions of dollars from special interest lobbies that benefit from wars?
