The idea that countries need to compete with eachother for resources and power and stuff. We're smart enough to put robots on Mars but we're still dumb enough to burn our limited resources fighting eachother to get control of those resources. We really should know better. Especially since we all now know that this bullshit is quickly making our planet uninhabitable for us.

I thought once we had the internet easily available to everyone, the borders would just sorta dissolve as we all understood that people are people everywhere and we can all start trading information, ideas and actual goods directly with eachother, but all thats seemed to happen is amplifying our worst traits and shoving them in our faces round the clock.

We're not going to make it, and as one of the "we" i cant help but feel somehow complicit.
