As much as I hate to say it, wars are never going to go away. And there will eventually be a WWIII. It's just a matter of time, so it's better to be prepared than not.

And future wars will most likely be fought 90% with naval/air force and drones as they can conduct operations with minimal loss of human life by not putting people on the front lines.

I think it's on us to make sure wars don't continue. Especially our own democratically elected government fighting unjust wars and oppressing people around the world. There is absolutely something we can do about that.

Yes, if the USA stopped building submarines then there would be no more wars. Russia never would have even thought about invading Ukraine. You've figured it out!

We have contributed to the situation in Ukraine. We are the reason Putin and his oligarchs are in power in the first place! We have nearly a 1000 military bases around the world! We have a torture prison in Cuba! We are helping Saudi Arabia commit genocide in Yemen!

Forget about Putin for a second and look at what we're doing and have done for the 70 years.
