No unfortunately. I'd love to see that but I don't think enough people in the power agree.

 @9JXZJG4Greenanswered…1yr1Y

Probably not. We are social animals but as long as there are us and them, there is going to be conflict.

 @9K34HCVagreed…1yr1Y

"Of the past 3,400 years, there has only been relative peace for 268 of them, 8% of recorded history" United Nations International School

 @9K2XT5Ndisagreed…1yr1Y

The entire concept of us and them originates from tribalism, the arbritary division of humans into social groups not based on class, and therefore the elimination of these social differences will make war obsolete.

 @9JTNRSNanswered…1yr1Y

No, I think the human race will destroy itself before they reach that point, unless we managed to destroy capitalism first

 @9JY34V4disagreed…1yr1Y

Differences in culture will always mean people will war with each other. Nothing to do with capitalism. For example, extreme Islam will always be at odds with Israel.

 @9JWRYYPGreenanswered…1yr1Y

no, war is inevitable under capitalism as it is profit driven and greed driven

 @9JYTJQ5disagreed…1yr1Y

Non-sequitur. Capitalism is nothing to do with the question, and given that socialist countries killed more in the 20th century than both world wars combined, I'm not sure any anti-capitalist should be throwing stones.

 @9HPCJLH answered…1yr1Y

No, though I believe this should be a goal we strive towards, however it is human nature that there will always be those who wish to wage war and have the means to do so, very unfortunate.

 @9JFRM3VSNPdisagreed…1yr1Y

Humanity will reach a point where conflicts are resolved through hammer of the judge, rather than the barrel of a gun. This is due to the simple fact that technology will cause us to evolve a point where war and conflict are simply not necessary.

 @9K775DNanswered…1yr1Y

Potentially but it would require a post scarcity society in my opinion since most wars are fought over land and resources.

 @9KFL7ZVdisagreed…1yr1Y

There will be periods of time where the world will be at peace but there will always be conflicts and war will eventually break out.

 @9HCYZCTanswered…1yr1Y

Nope I hope not we’ve lived through two world wars and had a few grim concervative governments.

 @9HLLQV5answered…1yr1Y

If the entire human race worked to develop self-awareness and break multi-generational trauma cycles and tackle issues such as poverty that is a huge contributor to experiencing trauma then yes, maybe one day.

 @9JZ2JWB answered…1yr1Y

Only if western nations earnestly support low income nations in building up, and moderate border disputes to avoid needless civil wars and further social backsliding in those societies

 @9HTLKW5 answered…1yr1Y

Yes, in the far future (if we get to that point) when we eliminate world hunger, and suffering and live in a utopia.

 @9JTPFHHanswered…1yr1Y

Hopefully. I don’t think it’s feasible but in a stateless, classless society, war would likely be mostly abolished.
Not that America or other hyper capitalist countries would ever let it get to that point.

 @9J52SSTLiberal Democratanswered…1yr1Y

No, but hopefully war can become less violent and destructive and reach a point where they are resolved quicker, with less deaths.

 @9J2KGMXConservativeanswered…1yr1Y

Unfortunately no, but we should continue to work towards a time where there is no war, no violence.

 @9JV254Canswered…1yr1Y

War is inevitable, however, there should be a different way to settle differences rather than loss of life

 @9JYSKBKanswered…1yr1Y

Yes, we have already reached it to an extent due to assured nuclear destruction.

 @9JXYN4Tanswered…1yr1Y

No, there will always be some reason humans will have conflict with one another
