People do not know how close they really are until they start a war with somebody
October 9, 2019 at 9:37 pm
People do not know how close they really are until they start a war with somebody, closing the imaginary borders they sat for themselves. When they begin to taste each other's sweat and realize the bullets are real, when the high-horse of each nation finally breaks, they become more submissive..more into peace..more into building instead of demolishing.
It's a human feature to believe that a reality which happened a while ago is fantasy, made by the paranoid.
No wonder humanity forgot about the hellish trenches of World War 1 or the mad firestorms of World World 2 air raids.
Humans forgot the smell of crispy flesh, humans forgot the bbq parties their mortars caused, humans forgot that high-horses brought slaughter once.
Even though we humans still have modern replicas of Hitler and Mussolini.
But the replicas learned to wear the right disguise.

Unless you count the failed and (if I'm being honest) sadly comical Fenian Raids of the late 1860s.
