Posts from Who thinks that an army is unnecessary?

I think that China will soon simply take over and assimilate the entire planet, and perhaps India will join in the assimilation process, so there would be no need for a single state.

I want to join the Airborne Forces! For the Airborne Forces! (My older brother will be drafted into the army next year, it will be boring without him...)

Yeah... No one seems to have considered what the army actually provides. Perhaps just some unpleasant memories and the ability to clean an outdated rifle. A friend of mine went to the army – it didn’t improve his health, he just wasted his time. And regarding those who say “we need to defend our homeland” – that’s Stalinism, and it was only appropriate to say that during wartime. And in general, I think a unified state is not far off – there’s simply no point in dividing the land, which is already small. People have no reason to fight each other – which means there’s no point in having an army. If anyone wants to, they can join the contract army, etc.

Narrow-minded. Even if we disregard national differences, there's the economy to consider. There are developed countries, and then there are, for example, Third World countries. What reason would the former have to unite with the latter?
To put it simply: when parents have money, it makes more sense for them to give a gift to their own children than to some random person on the street.

And of course, people have no reason to fight, and there haven't been any military conflicts in the last few decades. :smile01:

The presence of conflicts does not mean that war has a purpose. Ordinary human XYNTA.

So, we've come to the point where an army is needed to protect the economy. But I believe this is just an unnecessary expense. We need to create not just alliances between countries, but a unified council of Earthlings. And capitalism is already starting to become obsolete. Personally, I advocate for a new order. For example, resources will no longer be part of someone's division, but will belong to a state monopoly. In other words, you could say that everything will be state-owned. It will be beneficial to work for the state and it will be beneficial to live in it. But, of course, this does not exclude the market; there will also be megacorporations, but they will be controlled by the state.

Communism? ;)

Napoleon once said: "A nation that does not want to feed its army will feed a foreign army."
If we eliminate the army, we will become someone else's "colony" very soon, perhaps even tomorrow.
If it weren't for the Russian Army, I can't even imagine what the West and China would do to our country...

I don't understand why everyone is afraid of the army? Currently, the term of military service is only 1 year. I served 2 years myself (back then, the term was that long) and I don't regret it at all.

Regarding the world government.
It will happen. Those who live in America and Europe will live "happily" at the expense of the rest of the world. In fact, it's already happening, and with a world government, it will be even worse.
Does anyone really think that some foreign politician will suddenly start caring about the well-being of Russia, even if all the countries of the world suddenly unite?
A few years ago, Margaret Thatcher said that the optimal population of Russia should be around 1 million people, which should be enough to maintain the oil and gas pipelines. That's approximately what will happen in the event of global globalization. Europeans and Americans will live happily, and we will work hard for them... providing them with resources, etc.

Currently, Russia needs an army, but certainly not in its current state. Today's army is criminal. Lordesat, I advise you to avoid it. I haven't heard anything good about it from anyone who was there.

In general, ideally, they are not needed in this world.

So what's wrong with that?

Lordesat, I advise you to back down

Of course, we will back down. Peace, people. I'll pretend to be mentally ill.

I don't like people with a different skin color; that's what's wrong, so what's there to say about creatures from other planets?

However, you can befriend alien creatures.

I don't like people with a different skin color; that's what's bad, let alone creatures from other planets.
