I can’t really think of a reason for that as Reddit is hated somewhat equally by “both” sides of the spectrum. It’s just something I find interesting.

    How many times has diplomacy ever solved a dispute? Munich 1938 is a great example on why they usually only delay the inevitable

      Presumably it works some of the time. My country doesn’t descend into war every time there’s an election.

          You mean besides the decades the US and USSR didn’t blow the entire world to pieces or even enter direct conflict, which would likely have killed millions more than the proxy wars that occurred with diplomatic intervention? I’m sorry, I just can’t take anyone who truly thinks that diplomacy is always useless seriously. It strongly suggests they’ve never read a history book.

        That’s definitely not the same as having no private property

        If someone hates what you said they’re just stupid
