Subject asks all, but I dunno if I’ll get socratic dialogue on a tibetan shitposting image board.
to get started:
>against war
War only seeks innovation in perpetuating itself, not humanity(‘s progress in knowledge of reality).
Wars, although inevitable because of the human condition, distract from human cooperation in research and thought.
>For war
One must protect themselves from any entity who seeks to destroy/oppress/steal our intellectuals, knowledge, or resources for sustainability.
A society, holding superior development and thought, should conquest in order to proliferate it’s thought.
Knowledge gained from war (technology, biology, chemistry) can always be repurposed or assist discovery.
>??
War should not be assumed to be a good/evil or friend/enemy.
This is like asking if philosophy/religion is an enemy of science.
