Why We Need War.

Do you crave thought-provoking philosophical discussions? 🧠💭 Join me in this fascinating video as we explore the question: "Is war a cruel necessity?" Inspired by Oliver Cromwell's statement and my work for a Cambridge magazine publication/research paper/blog, this video is perfect for those who want to dive deep into philosophy and challenge their thinking.

But be warned: we'll end up with more questions than answers! ❓❗️

We start by analyzing the burden of proof, which is against the status quo. Our task? To prove that war IS a cruel necessity. We'll examine what "necessity" means and break down justifications for war into three categories: moral, economic, and natural. 📚🔍

In the moral aspect, we'll tackle the Trolley problem, religious and governmental wars, and delve into the complexity of World War II and the Holocaust. Next, we'll explore the economic side of war, questioning whether it leads to long-term prosperity, scientific discoveries, and technological advancements. 📈💡

Finally, we'll discuss the natural argument, pondering whether war is an inherent part of nature and anthropology or if it plays a role in natural selection. 🌿🔬

Embark on this philosophical journey with me and uncover the truth about war's cruel necessity. Watch now and elevate your thinking! 🚀🎓
