It occurs to me that this last 1/2 century or so has been globally pretty peaceful. And I wondered if it might even be one of the MOST peaceful 50 years we’ve had.

I’m inclined to imagine that the Cold War might have kept a lid on larger military aspirations. What do you think, am I deluded?

    What about Tiananmen Square…?!? That was kinda cool for the CCP!

    I wasn’t there but maybe someone here was.

    Oh wait.

    No.

    They were all killed and then turned to mush by tanks repeatedly driving over the bodies and then hosed dune the drains.

    GLORY TO THE CCP AND HOW WONDERFUL THEY ARE TO ALL THE PEOPLE.
