    Yes, and it is quite sad. The ability and will to exercise violence is one of the most fundamental forms of power. Hopefully we can solve this one day. Even the more elaborate attempts to do so today - such as nuclear deterrence - uses the threat of violence to prevent violence.

      Yeah, completely agree. If we don’t destroy ourselves we need to find ways to work cooperatively instead of turning everything into a zero sum game.
