Literally the one time I've ever heard of it happening, which is why we laughed.

Wtf
I had no idea. Google says BK does too. |
Maybe we do but we certainly didn't think so and didn't allow it.

As for had to be killed by force.. 1) That would be a bit more convincing if they ruled over a sizable state for a substantial period of time... The fact that it didn't break down due to internal strife or mismanagement in the course of a couple years isn't really all that surprising. 2) If you rule out national security as a criteria of viability then you're missing a pretty vital part of the picture imo. Say what you will about the USSR but at the very least they weren't so blindly naive in this one regard. Tldr they would've been onto something maybe if geopolitics didn't exist. |

In this case there was a civil war going on ffs... I think being able to defend yourself militarily (or having someone else who will do it for you) is always a must, but even more so in that specific context. But we've sorta been over all this before.. you say the nation state has to disappear which means you are talking about a global yet decentralized order manifesting simultaneously... I think once when we were talking about robots taking over you said "this isn't politics it's science fiction." To me that sci fi scenario is still way more likely, foreseeable, and even relevant than your scenario is. |

We are not special and will act like every other species driven by their biological desire to procreate which makes conflict inevitable. I can't imagine a justification for believing otherwise.

Sure I have but I didnt see them as a threat to my existence, beliefs, whatever other thing that makes people to terrible things to one another. That's not a good reason for "not believing in human nature".
