If the countries that the US and other European powers are/have been actively engaging had similar military/economic capacities to fight back, then we would already be in the midst of a World War. Civilization is and has been hanging on just by a thread. The fact that most people go about their lives as though the status quo is tolerable suggests a bleak outlook for our species indeed (as well as current life on Earth more broadly) unless radical changes occur in the near future (i.e. this century to the next couple of centuries). Side: Yes
If the countries that the US and other European powers are/have been actively engaging had similar military/economic capacities to fight back, then we would already be in the midst of a World War I need to point out that this is the same position that you railed against in the debate I banned you on. Side: Yes

@brontoraptor You missed the point. My statement is not dependent upon the US and European powers being the most active in large scale warfare. Rather, the state of perpetual large-scale warfare in the modern world with 21st century technology is inherently unstable and threatening the survival of the species. This is why the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists set the Doomsday Clock to 2 minutes 30 seconds to midnight. Side Note: This is the exact opposite position that Amarel was making in the debate he created "What happens if the US Military", thus we got into an argument/debate. Side: Yes
