    Why are they so obsessed with battle and killing people?

    I know it has mostly to do with domination and control but like man there’s so much more to life?

      I thought the entire liberal civility thing was about moving society past this kinda shit. That’s the whole neoliberal supposed ideal- it’s all about market forces and zero physical force, the “non aggression principle”. Same dudes wanna talk about how men are made to be warriors, survival of the fittest, etc. When will people realize that perhaps having young guys a bit afraid of snakes, spiders, whatever is preferable to having them grow up surrounded by violence and cruelty, or directly risking their life for imperialism and nationalism?

        Might as well be anprims if we’re gonna keep going back to the “good old days” lol

        Humans have long since evolved past the need to do shit like that, the only thing keeping us from prospering is a few assholes with way too much resources
