RE: What Have We Become?
as weapon manufacturing around the world is getting out of control and out of hand. It is too much
And to think I believed I was the only one feeling this way. The news lately has been weighing heavily on me—reports about who owns what kind of missile, which country is testing which weapon. It’s unsettling. Every announcement of a new arms acquisition feels like a step closer to catastrophe. Are we really advancing, or are we simply inching toward our own destruction?
But then again, how else will the world’s most profitable and dangerous business—the arms industry—sustain itself? War, fear, and weapons are its fuel. Peace isn’t profitable, after all.
And what exactly is the endgame of all this territorial conquest? How much land is enough? This obsession with power, the addiction to dominance—it’s terrifying. How do these people sleep at night, knowing they have the blood of countless innocents on their hands?
Every nation has its own set of internal struggles—poverty, education, healthcare, justice. If only governments would focus on fixing those, maybe the world wouldn’t be in this constant state of unrest. Why the constant urge to meddle in others’ affairs? Why not just look inward and heal what's broken at home first?
Unfortunately I believe we are racing towards self-destruction.
I feel partly guilty about all that happens. While "regular" people do nothing and mostly complain on social networks, psychopaths or let's say, people who are never satisfied nor happy, or just have psychological issues, run countries and armies to imaginary goals.
I can tell that governments (and presidents, where they are the main authority) are, in general, impotent to resolve the most important issues. Perhaps that's why they search for external enemy to divert the attention, until they find such one. Sad to draw that conclusion, but it seems like every means to stay in power...
Not "perhaps", most "definitely"!
The person behind this "false flag" operation has been in power for over a decade and will go to any lengths to stay there. It's a pity. He's used such tactics before — only a psychopath would resort to this.
This may sound political, though it's not my intent — it's simply the reality. When someone clings to power for over a decade and employs questionable tactics to maintain control, it raises serious concerns. History has seen such strategies before, often driven by desperation or obsession, not governance.
Sometimes I think the only brakes stopping democratically elected leaders becoming dictators are the finite number of mandates... 😎🤣
Obviously power corrupts everyone with time...
