  • I don’t think anyone here is suggesting we are in a movie or video game situation. A lot of the arguments here are rooted in history.

    I believe the argument you made is simply beneficial to authoritarianism which is why folks are leaving intense replies. If the idea you’re proposing is saving lives at all cost, then it is no different functionally from the ideology of “might makes right.”

    Quickly negotiating a defeat to save lives means that the USA, China and Russia can and should invade every square foot of land that they desire as fast as possible. The blame would then be on the victims for not giving up quicker to save lives.

    Surely you can see how this is a problem?
