Good for everyone - this populist promise has been sounded throughout the ages. Our distant ancestors have always promised good for their own citizens. However, traditionally, the promises of politicians are almost never fulfilled. Anything can be publicly declared, but it can be extremely difficult to implement the promised in practice. It is especially difficult if a politician is only interested in personal benefit and does not interest him at all, does not interest him and will not interest him. Promising goodness and happiness, we have always built empires on blood. For the good, we fought and killed brothers in mind. For the sake of happiness, the lower strata of society were oppressed, for the sake of comfort, immoral and cruel slavery existed.
Every person, whether he is a nobleman close to the princely court, a king, an emperor or a peasant, is an egoist. We first of all think about personal good, and only then about others. We are all selfish. All people have the same vices and roughly the same way of thinking. There was no class inequality in nature. We ourselves have divided society into classes. By creating a lag for representatives of blue blood, representatives of the lower classes were oppressed. The history of the Roman Empire is a prime example. In those ancient years, Rome was like heaven. It was the most progressive and enlightened state on earth. The Roman practically did not work. Every self-respecting citizen of Rome preferred to do only what he wanted. Household problems were solved for him by slaves, and slaves also worked on the plantations. They were in an absolutely awful situation. The slaves had no rights. The Roman could use them as he wanted. If desired, the slave could be killed in any way. For the slightest offense, they were severely punished. Every brick in the foundation of great Rome was laid with the blood of slaves and conquered peoples.
History did not stand still after the fall of the great Rome. People continued to build a conducive environment on the blood of other people. Because of banal personal insults, real bloody wars were fought and there was no end to it. Rivers of blood flowed in the name of anything. But then the dark and suffering Middle Ages were replaced by brighter and more enlightened eras. However, it was difficult to give up the usual way of life. Patriotism was invented. When a person feels a sense of duty to a country, he is willing to go to war. The most important thing is to beautifully tell people that the war is not being waged because of the personal ambitions of the supreme ruler, but only for the good of the homeland. Millions of soldiers were sent out to build good, killing those they considered enemies. Progress has led to new ways of waging war. Firearms and even cannons appeared. The first aircraft and air bombs appeared. Gradually, discoveries were made in chemistry. So on the battlefield, chemical weapons were used for the first time, which were completely inhuman. Continuing the traditions of the ancient commanders, the armies sought to take over the world in order to bring good. For a modern man, it seems absurd to say that the First World War was fought so that there would be no more wars. War for the sake of peace is a familiar but fundamentally wrong slogan.so that there will be no more wars. War for the sake of peace is a familiar but fundamentally wrong slogan.so that there will be no more wars. War for the sake of peace is a familiar but fundamentally wrong slogan.
When the Nazis began to take over Europe, they pursued only one goal. Their Fuehrer promised that the war would make Germany great again. From childhood he inspired the entire German people that nations are not equal by definition. His delusional ideas received widespread support in society and persecution was carried out on races that were considered inferior. It will sound extremely immoral and cruel, but millions of people died in the gas chambers for the good of Germany. Destroying the innocent, the SS officers sincerely believed that they were cleansing the land of inferior and dangerous peoples. Medical experiments in concentration camps were also carried out for the sake of science, and therefore for the good. Massive use of negative eugenics and genocide. All this is part of the not so distant past. The memory of these terrible events is still fresh and people are alive,who saw everything with their own eyes and even took part in it.
We study history in order to never repeat the mistakes of the past. How much has changed since the War? The reality is that practically nothing has changed. After the war, another began, cold, but no less dangerous. For the sake of communism, dissenters were repressed, for the sake of Western civilization, the economies of less developed countries were destroyed. Although each of the empires developed along its own path, everything was built on blood. However, the USSR collapsed and only one empire remained. Is there really peace? No, everything turned out to be much more complicated.
Powerful financial elites and clans of incredibly wealthy families were behind everything then and are now. They play with human destinies in order to multiply their own fortunes. They rule our world from the shadows. Their power in the modern world is absolute. A whole network of their influence envelops all countries. They decide what the world order will be like today and what it will be like tomorrow. Large terrorist groups are being created that are trying to change the balance of power in individual regions. To impose a war on some countries in order to weaken them and thereby strengthen their own economies. The world has changed, but the psychology of people has not changed. Still, modern empires are built on blood and deception. True, it is hidden so well that many do not even believe in its existence. There have been no global wars for a long time,but modern armed conflicts are often even more destructive. You don't have to fight to take over and destroy a country. It is enough to finance opposition currents and shake the internal situation in the country. By overthrowing regimes and organizing revolutions, they change the world, rewrite rules and even start civil wars. People begin to fight not even with another country, but with their own citizens. Meanwhile, the empire grows imperceptibly for everyone and it grows on the blood of other people. People begin to fight not even with another country, but with their own citizens.
