The article is actually somehow worse than the headline. It looks at things on a scale of thousands of years, and the argument is essentially "war happened, the conditions of humanity improved, ergo war is good". Then it's just filler, mostly name dropping events and famous works, literally distracting you from the fact that it's a dog shit argument by going "oh you think my argument is dumb? Well I'm smart so how could that be?"
I hope that each and every one of these imperialist, war for profit assburps spends eternity in hell in the shoes of every innocent person they contribute to the suffering of. I want them to feel every bullet wound, chemical burn, and torturous act. I want them to see their country razed and their family ripped apart. For these people I wish hell was real.
