War in this century is a net negative, the amount of capital put into it gets countered by the dependence of every country on the global economy and modern technology. Ironically it’s the US who set this system up in the first place

Huge masses of modern technology plainly wouldn't exist without the necessity of innovation brought by the war industry

The global economy also wouldn't exist in the way we know it today

“the economy that’s propped up by war, exploitation, and destruction wouldn’t exist without the war, exploitation, and destruction machine”

The global economy was set up by the US to disincentivize war by other great powers (and so we could play our own games) and it’s largely worked in punishing countries that do war. We don’t understand how much 2003 Iraq FUCKED our economy. Ukraine has made Russia into a full war economy that will collapse as soon as the war ends. Iran had us by the balls using the global economy. War between the US and China is unlikely because of how intertwined our countries are.
