Why nukes & not peace?

Nice share of thoughts OP, thanks for the post =)

I agree 110%, not only are nukes obviously dangerous to countries men, women and children... but its horrible for our earth as well, I mean... Its commonly seen as a fear of losing our human population, death count and what not, if a nuke was to be launched somewhere... Think about animal life, the radiation, the trees, plants, nature itself would take more than a huge toll, possibly ending up (in what I strongly believe) happened on Mars long ago, which would make our planet no longer habitable.

I am a super optimistic person, I am not a paranoid person or a crazy lunatic by any means... but I guess if people were to understand my true beliefs, I could easily be labeled as a 'conspiracy theorist'. Personally, I believe our government (or rather, few very higher ups) runs a fear-mongering structure to divide the people so we are more easily controllable... Its becoming common knowledge now that a small group of people own the majority of money in the world... The key to keeping and even increasing their wealth, obviously is going to come down to psychology in some way, shape or form. A simple example to prove this point is any average joe who earns money by lying, or tricking someone into a way where they may profit. This is psychology use to profit.

Well, psychology implied to the mass amounts of population of our world, obviously needs to be hidden... I don't feel as if any one or two corrupt people are stealing from us directly, they simply turn the people agaisn't each other and embed fear & separation into us which allows more specific families or groups of people into profiting by having provided the illusion of 'change' into a more peaceful, helpful or solution to current problems happening around the globe... when in reality, things are only constantly getting worse.

This finally leads me back on topic, as you stated, soooo much money is thrown into our military system, with the illusion of security & power. Establishing a peaceful society would be simple with all the money generated by every working person, but we are driven into a greed direction consuming worthless materials to obtain a sense of fame, power or self happiness. If people looked at the concept of poverty as an entire global problem, instead of just a personal issue when they lose their job, or mortgage, maybe we would be attempting solutions instead of comparing country to country, bragging who has more nukes, tanks or military soldiers.

Its almost as if the stupidly large military force we have provides Americans with a sense of power... We tend to think we are the best, so we forget and don't question why we are at war with so many countries, or use up so much money on military related funds. Why not work on anti-nuke systems and provide them to other countries, instead of hoarding our own missiles if nuclear warfare is that big of scare. Paid off corporations & other systems just work on false propaganda & other controlling methods, probably unaware of the harm at times, just because they are treated well and forget about the others who are not.

I really like your content OP, threads and replies always are very informational and intelligent... The TL:DR I guess I can give is, we make nukes and not peace because it continues the cycle of ignorant consumption fueling our own downfall while the few who gain power / wealth, save themselves from the horrific events that take place around the globe.
