Boru OK, fine, you won the debate. The Battle of Vukovar happened.
Cool. Wanna move on to crop circles?

Well, most people think wolves want to eat people, when in fact they don't. In that sense at least, they are being demonized.
People who know nothing about wolves think wolves want to eat people.
Are you thinking of werewolves?

Personally, I think werewolves were responsible for all those sesame seed-covered crop circles that appeared during the Battle of Vukovar.

And what do you guys think, how are wars possible with respect to the Karl Popper's Principle of Rationality, one of the basic principles of modern social sciences? Karl Popper's Principle of Rationality states that the society as a whole will behave as if every individual in it were rational, because irrationalities of individuals cancel each other out. In other words, there can be no systematic irrationalities, where many individuals are irrational in the same way. But no rational person can think war is a good thing, right? So, how are wars possible?

Popper used the Principle of Rationality as a process, not as actuality (meaning that IF every individual in a society was rational, then the society as a whole would be rational). He even said that this principle was false.
Wars are terrible things, but that doesn’t necessarily make them non-rational. For example, if all the people in my country will die because they lack a resource your country has, it is rational for my country to go to war to get it (assuming all other avenues have been exhausted).

What should I tell my psychiatrist then? That you just argued that a city can only be named "city of wolves" in order to make up a story of a massacre. That you can not conceive of another reason.

Crop circles are not produced by aliens.
They're created by mutants from the future who travel back and forth through time through wormholes in the Hollow Earth and are trying to warn us of approaching catastrophes, but they've somehow lost the ability to speak to us directly.
