I feel like were learning the wrong lessons and regressing, Reacting to situations instead of responding to them.
War is absurd, and this conflict particularly so. Its a lose lose for everyone except for the few individuals who will become more wealthy. And what will they do with the money… by some 500 million yacht that costs a tens of thousands to operate a day and which the spend a few weekend on a year. And of course they need a few houses to sit empty.
What lessons are we taking away. Lets go back in time when things were so much better even if in no time in history have so many people had it so good. Build bigger army’s, even though the wars of the 21 century have shown how vulnerable the big weapon systems like tanks are to individuals with a cause. Even though its clear the real battlefield is the digital, informational, environmental one. Though that is absurd as well
We are so afraid of losing what we have we will give away what we have to save it. Absurd
I have every confidence we are capable of learning better but not very optimistic that learning better we will do better.
Life is suffering and that’s the way we like it. Desire for more, just a little more….
