Because we as a species are all psychotic dickheads with fantasies of control and power. Like my fantasy of the "New Fascist Canadian Regime" in which we regulate minimal breeding requirement and focus on destroying the rest of the world and on it's ashes building a now glorious Canadian world... Shut up, I can dream!

.....yes you can......

Indeed

Humans are animals, animals got instincts. Male animals usually fight to be the alpha male while some stay as beta males. War is basically just an advanced version of that.

You'd think we got past that by now.

Not everyone are born with a sense of of compassion. Actually feeling sorry for others is an ability that most people lack and will never learn. This world basically rewards the sociopaths. Did you know that most CEO:s shows signs of being sociopaths? That makes them drive the company better.

I honestly didn't know they were sociopaths, but it makes sense now that I think about it.

Not all of course, but it's a trait that is quite common.

I understand.

Because it is in the nature of man my friend.

I really don't know why you're getting so many red thumbs, although, if I had to guess I'd say it's probably because people here don't like talking about that kind of thing.
