Anti-War ≠ Peace
The absence of war does not equal peace.
War is so ingrained in our culture that most people do not even believe in peace. They say that "peace" is the absence of war.
However, we will know peace in the near future.
Peace is a state where we actively try to prevent war, where we actively negotiate for win-win solutions. Where we do not try to deny others what they need. Peace is not a passive thing.
AND!!! The biggest thing about peace is most of the people have to believe that it can happen.
So many little things add up
It is obvious when we have people who want to fight, who want to attack, but it is not apparent when we have people who are fighting against the system to stay alive.
Right now, many people cannot afford housing. A basic human necessity. The banksters have empowered landlords to continually increase rent till it is out of reach of many people. The banksters have also created a system where the slowest people get bankrupted. (it is mathematical. It is usually a person who is bad with money, but it is not just because they are bad with money, you have to maintain a pace faster than the slowest group of people to stay solvent. It is what happens when there is not enough currency to pay all the loans)
If people cannot provide housing for themselves, than they get angry. Angry at other people, angry at the system They want to attack, want to hurt back those who are hurting them. And this anger adds up. Adds up to war.
We live in a world where we believe the idea that it is just their fault. We have some people who like to help, who give to others to help. However, they are fighting against an evil system. But, the belief that it is just because some people are bad with money, or haven't worked hard enough, or haven't gotten a job, makes it impossible to solve the problem, and thus, impossible to have peace.
It will be very interesting as we uncover how evil the banking system is, and their plan to make everyone homeless, unless they become slaves.
Destroying children before they ever grow up
The number one cause of people being in prison / being a life long criminal?
No, it isn't be black, or a minority, or low IQ, it is being raised without a father in the home. Although we tell children, all the time, that this is just something you have to get over. We never address how much damage this causes.
A child who grows up without their mother (from 0-2) feels abandoned by their mother. This is a hole in their heart that they feel they can never fill. Like, they aren't worthy to be loved.
If the child doesn't have a female parental figure (from 2-5) they will not learn socializing skills, plus feel abandoned.
If the child doesn't have a father figure (from 5-13) they will not learn how to deal with the world. How to take disappointment and continue going. How to put off desires now to get more in the future (delayed gratification). So, the child who is missing a father never learns these skills, and also feels a hole in their heart that cannot be filled. Thus, these children grow up and the only way they can think of to get stuff is to take it from others. They are also hurt, and enact that hurt onto others.
We do not see how traumatizing these simple issues (what we describe them as) are to a child, and how much it affects the rest of their life. Further, we do not tools to fix this exist. Modern talk psychotherapy is ineffective, to the point were we could call it abuse. Abuse on top of the trauma they already receive.
And, this anger builds up, adds up, and unless someone actually works to heal the wound, adds up to war.
To get peace, we have to work at stopping the pieces that create war.
We, as a community, as a bunch of small communities need to make sure every person has their needs met.
It cannot be a national, just give them money, program. It has to be local. it has to be done by people who care, who have a stake in the community continuing to exist.
We must squash this notion that when a child gets to 18, they should move out and get a place of their own. An 18 year old doesn't have the skills to do this. There was a point in time when a minimum wage job could get you rent for a room above someone's garage. But, the banksters have made minimum wages really low, and rentals really high. People are working two part time jobs to rent a PART of a room. This is really evil.
And further, it should be the middle aged men who have had time to accumulate skills and assets who work out how to have a place to live for every person in the community. (not the fresh out of school person with no skills and no assets) The Amish build a house for a newlywed couple. The community builds them a house to raise their family in.
We must try to stop traumatizing our children. And if they get traumatized, we should work at healing that wound. We should never say, just grow up kid. Or, they will get over it. Or time heals all wounds.
Every child that isn't traumatized is a step closer to peace. Every child that is traumatized, but gets help in healing, is a step closer to peace.
We must work on a world where we learn to negotiate. And we honestly want a win-win solution.
We must also recognize bad actors and not negotiate with them. (yes, some planets execute anyone found to be a psychopath, or do something that mind wipes them, so they have to start over, and is helped to not become a narcissist again) Soon, we will figure out ways to detect such bad actors and never allow them into positions of power. We will test for compassion, and elect people based on their level of compassion, which narcissists cannot mimic, instead of strength or charisma, which narcissist can easily mimic.
Having a government that isn't out to poison you or harm you changes everything. It will be like things that we thought were to blame on what type of govern-cement we had, suddenly start working, despite them.
Getting to peace is not an easy path, however, it is one of the best things to do with our time.
Getting rid of that fear, the fear hanging over our heads that war may start at any time, is essential to our health. No one is healthy that has that fear in the hearts 24/7
Yes, we can't stop accidents from happening, or completely stop bad guys from doing bad things, but as a people, as mankind, we can put an end to wars. And we can bring peace to our world.
