Would that be "The Perfect World?"
Would that end all wars?
Would that unite humanity?
Not likely. There would still be those who desire power over others. There would still be those who desire to be worshiped. There would still be those who want it all. And once they have it all, they would want more.
Color, religion, nationality, and so many other differences are useful and convenient divisions for such people. And if those divisions didn't exist, they'd make up others. What others? Well, try things like emotional temperament, height, weight, eye color, physical build, -- Hell, the differences between us are endless. And are fodder for those who want to own us.
Our differences, any differences, make it easier for would-be tyrants to turn people against each other. It makes it easier for them to apply the tools of fear and hatred. It makes it easier for them to justify their "leadership" of the masses.
It's really no deeper than that. Yet, the vast majority of human beings on this planet don't get it and never have. It's why we live in a blood-soaked world. Our technology advances. But our sense of humanity is barely out of the caves. It's why tyrants have existed throughout history and it's why they still exist today.
Donald Trump wouldn't understand one concept that I've stated in this post. Nor does he need to in order to get what he wants. Him, and those like him just want it all. They care nothing for, or about, others and they will do anything imaginable to own us. If you get nothing else from this post, get this: Donald Trump wants it all. And if he gets it all, he'll want more.
