People now Hate Everything - and for Good Reason

Because everything hates them.

After making that blank statement, a few caveats are in order - quite a few, in fact.

There is no denying the huge losses of life, in the Industrial wars of - the American Civil War, WWI and WWII. And in the smaller wars that now dot the world.

In every war, people hate each other - and hate each other passionately. There is no sugar-coating this.

Most wars could have been prevented - if the opposing parties had taken the trouble to understand each other. But that was too much trouble, and going to war was easier. Even if, in the last analysis, they solved nothing.

People have always been inclined toward War - but these had always been local. Global  communications have now made global War - not only possible, but a fact of life for everyone.

But a fact of life, most people deny. Who wants to see something so terrible? Better to sweep it under the rug - and forget it.

And this also applies closer to home - in family life. Where conditions are terrible also. And the effort spent denying this, has reached stratospheric proportions.
