I heard something that really made me think on the Liberation Conversations podcast by @robinince@mastodon.social .
Holly McNish said that war is paid for. People are employed to take part, people invest in it, and in the industry of war.
No one gets paid to spread love.
I think that is truly profound, especially when all wars aim at ending in peace. Why not just start with peace and invest in that? Is it that war and conflict us just too profitable fir the few?
I will likely speak about this at my Quaker meeting tomorrow, as it frames reality so simply. Thank you Holly, and Robin too!

@Aspiedan@autistics.life That is a very good point. War is often about money, so when working for peace it would make a lot of sense to make it profitable to invest in love instead. @robinince@mastodon.social
