Why do I always here the phrase 'violence doesnt solve anything' or 'violence isnt the way to make change' when literally its been happening for 1000's of years. Pretty much everything has been molded by invade and conquer. Humans are a violent species. It is what it is, but im so sick of hearing the same rhetoric which literally goes against the fabric of our DNA. And peaceful deliberation doesnt solve anything....
Do you think people in positions of power just give their power away one day because they somehow developed a concious? violence always has, and always will be the answer to our problems with eachother.
 
I dunno what you expect in a karate/human cockfighting forum?

Other than references to DUH Magazine?

not so much about the obvious. its more about why the fuck do people act so naive as to what humans are. and the only reason some people arent like that is because they werent raised in anyway where it would be necessary, so its buried deep and they dont even realise a different roll of the dice, and a different upbringing and they could be someone much different.
EVERYONE has violence in them. Its just what will it take to bring it to the surface.
 
I decided to try again to watch Gundam Wing and it starts by saying such and such organization is taking over each colony one by one. That had me thinking there's always someone who rises to power whose greed must be satisfied by taking what others have by force. You cannot rely on them to behave honorably. There must be something to deter them from doing evil. If they believe they can get away with it, they will do it.
 
The thing is no one human is physically powerful enough to coerce everyone. Those in power use social/political power to get others to do stuff. Violence alone won't convince people to follow you. Unless you're literally superman and can tank direct hits from missiles.

Really? Try that in a domestic situation, see how good of an "answer" to your problems it is. Anyways historically what you said is not true, there is the classic and popular example of a Buddha who gave up his future kingdom to become an ascetic. Keep your bullshit philosophies to yourself.
 
With the society that has been created violence is not the answer anymore. If you have problems with someone violence can only lead to more problems.

When society collapses though yes violence will be king yet once again
