@9HGCMDP1yr1Y
No, it is human nature to disagree. War is just a large scale version of this, at it's most fundamental level.
@9HJ8FLX1yr1Y
I would like to hope that war stops however I think if we keep having the same types of people in government (usually rich, white, old, petty men) war will never end which is not what I would want, we need better world leaders
@9HJQ2ZBConservative1yr1Y
No, evolutionary pressures will always predominate and even in post scarcity societies, population booms will eventually exhaust resources, leading to conflict. Stability is unlikely to ever be the norm of an epoch, much less the norm of all future epochs.
@9HSJY3W1yr1Y
I think it’s possible but extremely unlikely - there will always be contrarians trying to fight over something
@9JYT3ZQ1yr1Y
No, attempts to promote peace throughout history have consistently failed. Unfortunately, I do not see the world ever being free of war due to the beliefs of those in power. MAD simply ensures that any war would result in the end of humanity as we know it, it does nothing to promote peace.
@9K2SFTM1yr1Y
No as positions of power attract sociopaths and psychopaths who lack basic care of empathy for others.
no, war is inevitable under capitalism as it is profit driven and greed driven
@9JYTJQ51yr1Y
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.
@9HV2SP3 1yr1Y
No, people will always argue and fight.it's not right or just. It just is what happens. If anything, it will get worse with the rise of technology as well as tension with China and Russia. And as technology rises, so do weapons. Including nukes, which could 1 day destroy the planet
Yes, as countries globalise there will be greater chance of diplomatic solutions.
@9HX887F1yr1Y
absolutely not. its in our blood whether we like it or not, as long as there are two people on the planet somebody is going to want someone dead
@9HPVRGR1yr1Y
With women ever more coming into power there will be more war
@9HPMNNM1yr1Y
War has always been obsolete, sadly we continue with war despite its obsolescence.
@9HLDNCL1yr1Y
Not unless all nations resolve to stop it, or some powerful supranational organisation has the authority to stop it
People have too much fun creating new weapons and others enjoy selling them. Politicians believe that war protects or creates empires.
@9K3VZGK1yr1Y
I do believe we will, however this would be in the far future in hundreds, if not thousands of years.
@9JXRCZ21yr1Y
No, unless there's total destruction and an end to societal structure
I think we are close and hopefully this will be the future i see. So yes.
@9K7VTJ4 1yr1Y
No. Humanity is naturally inclined toward pack mentality, which in-turn is largely driven by religion, faith or belief in fascicast/communist dictatorships.
@9K6RLB41yr1Y
No, there’s to much conflict within power and opinions
@9JZ2JWB 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
@9J8Y4GW1yr1Y
No. It's a nice idea in theory, but I struggle to see how it can be achieved across the world.
@9J2GNTK 1yr1Y
Yes, but this will be hundreds of years in the future humanity is not capable of reasoning yet. The wars in Israel and Palestine plus with quarrels with Taiwan and various other countries demonstrate this.
Yes with enough peace negation I think most wars will be stopped but not all
@9K49WHK1yr1Y
At one point maybe since u can never rule out the possibility
I don't know. I really hope so. It should be a priority of the world to make war as obsolete as possible.
@9JWRHR71yr1Y
Only when actual and artificial scarcity of resources is abolished. This will mean any cultural or social differences will cease to be of any great issue to an egalitarian world.
@9J8FP681yr1Y
Never there will always be someone or something people,government and countries fight over, anti war is a just cause but it’s always going to be in vain and another war will happen
No, but hopefully war can become less violent and destructive and reach a point where they are resolved quicker, with less deaths.
@9HWFSLG1yr1Y
No with Russia-Ukraine and now Hama's and Israel and including impending war between NATO and Russia it's looking bad.
@9K4G6821yr1Y
No, war is an immature way of dealing with conflict and is never necessary
No as there will always be conflict however we should engage in treaties to try and overcome this.
@9K33WK51yr1Y
I hope So but seen as we’re so selfish and thick as a collective I dont see it happening in my life time
@9JWRHTK1yr1Y
Only when actual and artificial scarcity of resources is abolished. This will mean any cultural or social differences will cease to be of any great issue to an egalitarian world.
No but I hope the damage done by it on the quality on life for citizens can be decreased
@9HDHTJH1yr1Y
yes, it already has as the production of nuclear bombs means war is too risky
@9K68Y79 1yr1Y
Personally, I don't think this is achievable in the foreseeable future. Maybe some time, generations and generations away when humanity is forced to behave and is taught that conflict only leads to more conflict. But how would that have to be achieved? Most likely some authoritarian figure seizing power and uniting the nations through force. Then, when 'peace' is achieved under this one government, people would start to doubt its authority, there would be a growing disparity between the working class and the upper class, and possibly the government itself would, like all govern… Read more
@9K4J5Z51yr1Y
No war is a never ending fear it is unreal to believe that war will become obsolete. It's a dream.
It's possible, but it will need intelligent, educated and moderate leaders to appeal to an electorate that is less so.
@9K3CRJH1yr1Y
No, people are patriotic and feel there country is better than others, people feel they need to protect there country which is completely acceptable
@9JZSJG31yr1Y
No - unfortunately conflict is within human nature.
The scary thing is as time goes by we develop more and more ways of destroying each other in terrible ways.
@9JWRHL91yr1Y
Only when actual and artificial scarcity of resources is abolished. This will mean any cultural or social differences will cease to be of any great issue to an egalitarian world.
considering the wars that are currently at play it seems that not
@9K6NJDR1yr1Y
Most wars in my opinion are a result of power / monetary disputes. So long as there are positions of power, and given that humanity is not perfect, there will always be conflict no matter how minor it is.
@79YPPCS 1yr1Y
No, political, racial and religious differences will always be put before peace by some political leaders
@9JXYQDT1yr1Y
No, I think war is always an inevitable factor, and humans are not "fully peaceful" species.
@9JXYN4T1yr1Y
No, there will always be some reason humans will have conflict with one another
@9K36KLL1yr1Y
No, it is something to work toward and aspire to but it’s unrealistic for anyone in the near future
@9JYTPS41yr1Y
No because there will always be greed and religious nut cases a plenty. Stupidity, greed and selfishness are simply part of human nature unfortunately.
