3 days agoIt’s measured on an individual-to-individual basis, and I couldn’t possibly give you a fair, all encompassing aggregate. Mmm… we have gained previously unimaginable power over our world, and we understand the universe better than ever. On the other hand, large chunks of the world remain uncivilised, and in their barbaric incursions they kill and pillage indiscriminately… but now with stealth bombers and drone swarms. I don’t think we pass the test collectively, but maybe I’m too negative. But each person is responsible for and will be judged on their own behaviour anyway, not that of others, so 🤷.
I think so but maybe it ain’t so simple. Maybe it’s theater before ‘normalization’ with Israel, as it slowly stops being America’s pet project and becomes more integrated with the region? After all, the war appeases the moral side of the world after Israel/the USA took some hits, and it provides that pale devil Netanyahu excuses to remain in power and avoid the court for now plus it allows him to exit power more gracefully (“after decades of Middle Eastern aggression, I have reached a deal with them!”). We shall see.
