A one world government is the quickest way to enslaving the people of the world.

We waste so much that could be given to the people that need it. Water shortages are cropping up across the world. Food is being thrown away. All the while we aim weapons of mass destruction at each other. What will snap first?

Can't argue with that! It's going to take something other than government to fix it though.

Human ingenuity and our ability for problem solving. If we use our collective intellect then it would be nearly simple.

Please, how is wanting a unified species a grand delusion?

Together we could accomplish so much as a species. Eradicate diseases, end poverty and starvation, do away with war.


How so?
How would centralising power in a global govt eradicate diseases, end poverty and do away with war?
What kind of utopian dream are you having that makes you think a benevolent world govt can exist and people who hate each other and/or could never coexist culturally would all of a sudden get along with each other?
Any world govt would create mayhem with uprisings all over the world and eventually a world army sent into kill those that do not submit.
It just becomes more laughable by the day to hear these feelings led ideas of a utopian world that has never and will never exist.

Collective intellect???
It's not the collective that advances society - in fact usually any form of collective suppresses society. Individuals change the world, not world govts.
Get a grip.

yeah, you can argue with that. If the human race had decided to work as a collective and suppress the desire to achieve individual success, we'd still be living in the dark ages, serving Kings and Queens.

Yes collective intellect. I apologize for holding the species higher than you do, but I know we can accomplish great things as a whole instead of relying on an individual to come to the rescue.

You do realize we are talking about wasted food and resources, don't you? Waste can be solved in the way stated before.

You're confusing my response with someone else's. I never said anything about the collective.

He did not read what you and I were discussing about waste and assumed it was something else. His response was in regards to me talking about the collective intellect of humans being able to solve problems.

Yup I owe them the same thing they owe me, absolutly nothing. I can’t be bothered to care about countries that have historically been behind the ball in terms of development because of their beliefs or lack there off. Literally cant care less about the Middle East and Africa and South America.

If you want to contribute to the rest of the world show up with more then just your body .
I could try and lift you up to my level but odds are you will drag me down to yours.

Collective intellect that’s a laughable term. Our whole world has been sculpted by a handful of smart and driven people. The rest just stand their in awe mouths open.

For you to even think about lifting me up, you would have to dig yourself out of the pit of selfishness you are in.

You would want help if needed, yet won't give any in return.

It is that way of thinking that keeps the species divided. Hopefully the dominant species to arise after our extinction shows more compassion than we do.

I am fine with the current amount of helping I already do in the form of taxes, if you really need my help apply for welfare.

a reply to: Athetos

Your "help" in taxes is absolutely meaningless. Compassion and caring are what is needed, but it would appear that is asking too much.

But in the end selfishness will die out. People who care nothing for others will be just a footnote in the history books.

I’ll take the footnote over being totally omitted.

Why must you receive from others? Why must others give to you? Are you so opposed to carving your own path in life that you need others to do it for you? To build you up to care for you?

Not everyone one sees the world the same way. Our very existence and this very back and forth conversation is proof this single minded utopia will never work.

Me and you are different. I don’t care what you do yet you wish none existence on me.

Your post might as well read death to capitalist pigs. Go check out reddit a little place called r/latestagecapitolism lots of people that think like you there. You might even gain some traction.

I never asked for your help. No, I said OTHERS needed help. So you can cut that nonsense off at the source.

The total omissions will be the lobbyists and ultragreedy who held onto imaginary fortunes.

You oppose a society where everyone has a comfortable life all because of what? Call me a Socialist all you want, but at least I show care for my fellow man rather than turn my nose up.

You do realize straight and narrow means law abiding, correct? It is hypocritical of you to say the rules set forth by a global government would be terrible because they are crafted by others, yet you live under rules that were crafted by others.

You live in a society where breaking those rules would put you behind bars for months, possibly years, yet doesn't help you to better yourself and get back to a lawful life.

The very notion that you posit contradicts the very laws you live under. Shall I go on pointing out the hypocrisy you have put forth?


The rules I live under were created by us....the people. Perhaps the government in the country you live in doesn't allow you to propose legislation or vote on them locally. Too bad...so sad.

What if I do not want to change to meet your expectations of what is right? What then? More re-education? Forcibly attempting to control a persons thoughts is bad....yet because you feel superior and KNOW that your way is the right way allows you to justify it to yourself.

Keep deluding yourself. Perhaps someday we will all ride unicorns and there will be no disease. But, what is the long term affect of wiping out disease in your world. In mine, it would result in rampant overpopulation and more strife for everyone. Forcing governments to attempt to balance the populations out by forced migrations. That then results in regional economic disaster, and more suffering than there was before.

Not a great plan I must say. In fact you are so naive and short-sighted that you do not even see that your way is the path to global strife, suffering, and subjugation, of course, you might sell it "for the sake of the children".

I am not buying it...not now, not ever.

Now what, do you still wish to re-educate me by force?
