DISCLAIMER: I am a pacifist
In a perfect world, there would be no disagreements, no
arguing, no feelings of malice, and no war. Everyone would be in accordance
with one another, and with nothing to fight over, there would be no fighting.
However, we do not live in a perfect world; our world is far from it. As long
as there is someone willing to use violence as a means of getting what they
want, there will be war. Violence, and therefore warfare is simply the most effective
way of bending those less powerful than oneself to one’s will, as you can
either force your opposition into submission or eliminate it outright. Outside
of the political spectrum or Hollywood, non-violent methods can only persuade.
No matter how good at using rhetoric one is, if their object of persuasion
refuses to budge, they are powerless in the situation. However, if they hold a loaded
gun to that person’s head and the person refuses, they can commit a disgusting,
unjust act that eliminates all resistance.
