But their time is coming, that's obvious to anyone who is paying attention. I don't have to do anything about them, they will destroy themselves.
You might want to re-read the first half of my post again, since it kinda supports what you're saying.

The ideal society would be those in the isolated places, however all it takes is one person to ruin it all. Just one person has to want more, and all is lost. It's within human nature to be greedy. It's within human nature to want power. To want dominance over everything.

Peace is possible. It's just that nobody is ready for it yet.
