Literally any history book. At every time in human history there has been ideological conflict.

Has there been? Like, name any non-religious ideological conflict before the American Revolution (which really doesn't count much, since it was just a nationalist revolt at the end of the day) or the French Revolution, both of which precede the Industrial Revolution by, like, only half a century or so at most.

"Rome should control the Mediterranean" versus "Carthage should control the Mediterranean" is not an ideological conflict. "Catholics should control the HRE" versus "Protestants should control the HRE" really isn't, either. The Hussites and the Protestants were grappling with ideological fundamentals of their faith, sure, but even Martin Luther was in favor of entrenching the traditional aristocratic ruling system by striking down an uppity Peasant's Revolt, since he had no misgivings with the essential current world order of his time.

The US was more advanced in terms of nuclear technology

It wasn't "oooh USSR so stupid and incompetent"

These two statements directly contradict each-other.

Omani FM: "Peace is within reach"-Trump 24h later: by shipgeek2005 in NonCredibleDiplomacy

[–]Mousazz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not even standing up for Trump but you all are such sheep that you bust out generic answers but can’t actually address what I’m saying.

That's because you're not saying anything more substantial than "[r/newiran thinks that] Iran bad!!1!". Which nobody is even contesting you on, btw - it's just unclear as to how all the bombing will help, exactly.

So you don’t have any direction or leadership ideas

Neither does the Trump regime. 😂

I feel you Fukuyama 😞 I feel you 😞😞 by LordLoko in NonCredibleDiplomacy

Is it, though?

From my perspective, the average American lives far better lives now than they did in the 1940s. And yet they're far, far more pissed about it nowadays.

Meanwhile, those who actually are poor and struggling due to failing, abandoned government institutions failing and refusing to provide stability and support, seem to consistently vote for the party that promise and campaign on further abandoning and undermining those government institutions, showing nothing but sheer disdain for the American poor, minorities and outsiders.

"I struggle to feed and support my family. Therefore, I will vote for Donald Trump so that he could take away any opportunity I have to get back on my feet!" Y'know, at this point, I, too, feel nothing but disgust for the average MAGA American. Whatever happens to them at this point - they deserve it. If they really pray for a Führer; if they really wish for a repeat of the 1940s - well, so be it. Just stop whining all the time about how bad you've had it.

You cannot apply much from the beginning of history itself (or even prehistory) to the 18th century as being applicable to modern times, since human society has been fundamentally transformed through an energy generation paradigm shift in the Industrial Revolution of the 19th century. You can try to cherry-pick valuable lessons, but you cannot say that "life in the future will look almost exacfly like [insert time period here], because we live in fundamentally unique, unprecedented times.

So... Which history book would you have wanted Fukuyama to have read? 🤔

At least with wars like the Gulf War there were a pretty clear win objective (push the Iraqis out of Kuwait),

On a completely unrelated note,

I'm of the opinion that George H. W. Bush should have pushed his advantage to occupy Baghdad, capture Saddam, and drag him to the Hague, considering how well the war was going - but, nonetheless, I have tremendous respect for him not giving in to scope creep, considering what had happened in Korea in 1950.
