True, but twenty first century anarchists might find, on the street, their own use for these things - and in so doing, obviate the need for state/military/supremacy, in the first place.

At least, one might hope.

Am I right in understanding what you’re saying here is that you hope a countries own citizens will weaken it from within to the point it won’t be able to fight?

No I’m hoping that a countries own citizens will excel, flourish and prosper, and remove the motivation for fighting in the first place, i.e. make amazing things and share in abundance.

War is not always the answer. Most of the time, peace is the answer.


That's nice and probably true. On average.

It is much less true when Russians invade your country planning to assassinate your chief executive.

Disorganized rabble aren't going to be able to stop that.


Its also true when Americans and their allies, the worlds #1 source of war and calamity, invade a country, destroy its infrastructure, murder or kidnaps its leadership, and leave its people tattered in ruins.

The only people who can do anything effective about it, are Americans. Lets hope they get the tools to do it some day and share them with the Russians.


That isn’t an argument against the necessity of war.
