War. What is it good for?

[nightnight]

"War is an enemy to all mankind."

Thinking about these lyrics. I've honestly thought what a hellscape the earth would be if war DIDN'T exist. I'm trying to understand...what would a world without war look like? If there could never be opposition to those who rule. What would happen?

Two men walked on the beach in the sun
One left footprints, the other left none
One was a man that no man obeys
The other, a god from the ancient days
"Look," said the man, "how my kind make war
I summoned you here to ask what for"
"For wealth or land," the god replies
"For life, or freedom, or some king's lies"

War should be settled with sports. Even back then they had 1v1s. Like actually 1v1s of their best warriors.

The plot to Battlefield Heroes was literally a world war that broke out over a soccer match

Would the Olympics count then as a "world war" ... of sports? Sounds like a Disney theme park.

What is this from? It sounds familiar.

our leader should be chosen based on military physical prowess
then when they want war the 2 leaaders fight to death

and when they want to tax the people, the leaders must be taxed 2x as much as the propsed tax

This would be impressive...It's like Star Wars style except the soldiers don't fight?

I feel like there would be high turn over :X

War can be out peace keeeping, stopping genocide, even just delivering aid when facing combatants. There are some wars I've been anti war about...but I've wonder about people who are completely anti war altogether. Like I'm interested to hear from people who are anti war and why they have that position.

I'm generally completely anti war, I see it as a loss on all sides involved. Peace keeping war LOL

Yes well like in the terms of ending a genocide...stopping rampant killings. I'm not sure how you do that peacefully or without violence. I'm curious if there have been cases where those issues have been stopped without wars.

It's good for the 1% to increase their wealth because they can sell weapons and get to rebuild their houses, while the other 99% of people loose.

A sentence I've heard describes it pretty good
"Die Waffen liefern die Reichen, die Armen die Leichen"

In english
"The rich give the guns, the poor their corpses"

I doubt how mentally stable and thus reliable the Soldier from popular online videogame Team Fortress 2 is as a reliable source.

War is needed to breakthrough the power of the corrupt regimes like that of Stalin's, Mao's, Hitler's, and other Pharaoh's....

If you don't break them, they break your own future.
