Let us not go to war again. We cannot afford to "win" another war, so let us not go to war. There would be no way to win this war. There is only loss, and it comes at a staggering cost in lives, money, and the squandered opportunity to do anything better with our collective time and resources. War is more than just tragic. It's also becoming increasingly stupid and pointless. We are absconding in the larger and more important fight for the planet's habitability whenever we fight each other. War can no longer be justified as the last resort when all other options have failed. Instead, war must be viewed as a failure in and of itself.
We are already at war, it is unwise to deny it. Just as it is naive to think that putin's henchmen will stop only in Ukraine. russia is already actively preparing its population to attack Poland and the Baltic states. In their media discourse, information is spread that these countries are not friendly, and that they are not separate states at all, but part of the Soviet empire that was tragically destroyed by the West. Consequently, russia has every right to return them. And I, as a citizen of Ukraine, which has already been attacked by this savage horde, have no doubt that they are able to continue to do so, especially given that they are convinced that the West is not stopping them now. If they move forward, the question of war will no longer be hypothetical. This will be a new reality for the whole world. A reality in which Ukraine has been already living for 1 month and 1 day.
