    Then we’d trade for them because war economically is almost always a loss. Also, it what sense do we need the recourses? Will we starve without them? How many people would be willing to start a war they have to fight in if they can live fine without the potential of dying?

    Why the fuck would you kill my mom and not me? I also don’t think everyone would kill someone if a family member gets killed, I said I could see someone killing another person because of it. And at the beginning of such a cycle wouldn’t a stateless (or any other) society that exists long term stop such a process. Do you think that e.g. in precolonial North America there were massive wars whenever someone mother got killed?

          I know it isn’t. That doesn’t mean you’re not still on some bullshit though yourself. I believe in a stateless future, but I also believe we’re all joking if we think we have it figured out problems sorted from all our philosophy books

            This is not a philosophy book. It’s a anthropology book. It deals (among other things) with how stateless societies have worked previously. Being able to control violence is in my opinion one of the bare minimum things that have to be organized for a stateless society to exist at all
