Will this Game come to Reality?

Postby Gavino07 on Wed Mar 07, 2007 11:12 pm

I have always wondered, since I played the board game RISK, will the concept of World Domination will eventually come to Reality? Will the world become united under one government, one economy, and one state in the future of Earth and Mankind? Don't you think that nations are guided by the fact that the world needs to be under a world order of some type of government or ideology, such as the Fascist Party, the Communist Party, the Democratic Party, or other known parties. As an American, I think Pres. Bush is trying to influence the middle eastern countries to deeply follow the States of Democracy and to perhaps later use the middle eastern connections to spread Democracy throughout Asia and Africa. Democracy is the vehicle to world domination. Once every nation has been dipped into Democracy, the nations will then unite into one state, one government, and one economy.

The truth of Mankind is simply this: Human Beings will fight to be organized and to be dominant.

What do you think will happen to the future of Earth and Mankind?
The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind.

It's an interesting idea, and yes, I too believe that one day, we'll all be under a "New World Order", but not because of democracy. I think it will just happen after a great worldwide conflict. Maybe World War III or World War IV, or something like that in the future. With nuclear weapons flying during times like those, the only thing that would be left is people without a leader. Someone could stand up then, and unite everyone under one government, while everyone is weak. But I don't think that would happen for a while.

With any luck, government will collapse and the people will be free to rule themselves.

It won't happen. Too many nations have thermonuclear warheads, so even if someone did try to take the world, the world as we know it would probably be destroyed as a nation used it's nuclear arsenal as its last resort. But it would be pretty neat to have a uni-government world.

I'm a social anarchist, so a uni-government is against what I like, but I honestly think that that's what it's gonna resort to in the future.

Christ on a bike, the naivety. "The people" are morons. Without government, I'd give it 2 years before people in the US deep south and Newcastle in England are living in caves and eating each other.

I can't see a unified worldwide state in our lifetimes. The Middle East and Africa are too far behind the rest of the world in terms of social and economic advancement for unification to happen as anything other than the result of a worldwide holocaust.

The only thing that could do it is, er, war with another planet. Damn, that's depressing. Hey, here's hoping :shock:

People aren't morons... they're just conditioned to act as such.

As regards a new world order... it's possible in theory, but very difficult to accomplish, the bigger your empire gets the more people you have to rely upon to rule it, the more chance there is of revolt/incompetence.

Centralised rule is a bad idea anyway, and a nightmare situation, as it fails to reflect the concerns of people on a local level.

Personally I think we are eventually going to lapse into small communities, local governments etc. It may take along time. Unless we find a truly renewable, unending and completely clean source of energy. Otherwise all this global talk is just living on borrowed time.

order

Postby Gavino07 on Thu Mar 08, 2007 11:53 am

To anarchists out there, please explain to me that with no form of government over the people will not become a state of chaos. If there is no governments and only the people will do whatever they want, the people will be divided into families and get in conflicts with other families. Then eventually Families will unite as a organized society, which pretty much operate as a goverment. Do not forget the Truth i stated about Mankind!

I am not going to take that comment seriously, so if you would like, present an actual argument.

How about the Non-Aggression Axiom or the relative Armed Citizentry Principle?

If there is no governments and only the people will do whatever they want, the people will be divided into families and get in conflicts with other families. Then eventually Families will unite as a organized society, which pretty much operate as a goverment.


This is quite possibly one of the most classic -if not stupidest- failing arguments against Anarchy.

First, you're relying on a slippery slope, which is no valid basis for a conclusion as ill thought as yours.

Second, Anarchy =/= Anomie. People need to learn and understand that. Anarchy is simply the removal of artificial hierarchies and coercive entities from society.

Do not forget the Truth i stated about Mankind!


You stated no truth.

Still you have given me no explaination on how Anarchy works. It sounds cool but chaotic to me. Please, i am open to discussion.

Explaining all of the nuances of Anarchy would result in tl;dr. I will point you in the direction of a few good articles concerning Anarchy and it's various archetypes.

I don't think the world will be united until threatened by an outer force. Will retain our feelings of seperation until some big bad-ass alien nation tries to kill us. We will then proceed to throughly beat the living shit out of them till they scream mercy. We will hten be in such a frenzy with our new technoligy (thanks to the aliens) that we will unite and proceed to span the galaxya nd kick all alien ass! This is our future and it SHALL vome to be!

The sad thing is that the only reason why I go on this site, is to start games. That way, I am always red, and so when I win, I imagine I have united humankind under the One World Democratic Socialist Republic.

I dont think there is such a thing as permanent anarchy. Imagine a tribe of maybe fifty people. One person is smarter than all others - he has a record of getting out of dangerous situations. So the people look to him - when he advises that somebody should do something, they do it. Eventually, they make his power official by office. There we go. Back to the start.

Also the world will never be under one ruler. There could be a UN - but as long as fuckers like George Bush think they are smarter they will never have power.

A state resembling a permanent state of anarchy has existed at times, for example a state of relative anarchy existed amongst the Igbo people prior to colonisation. Decisions were made at a local level, every village was free to govern itself, and decisions within villages were made by an assembly of the common people of which no one was given special privilige.

If each village had a representative ruling body, isn't that a form of government? I mean, presumably, they are making and enforcing decisions for the good of the community, which sounds a lot like government.

In more modern times during the Spanish Civil War anarchist groups (CNT) seized control in Barcelona and surrounding regions for some months in '37. In some situations they abolished money and ruled through a collective will - outlawing political parties and operating through trade unions of workers. One of the only "pure" socialist experiments in history. Disrupted unfortunately when Stalinist backed groups took control of the anti-fascist forces in Spain.

Right back atcha. An example would be Vietnam...where the areas controlled locally were actually doing much better than the ones the States were supposedly rehabilitating. People tend to think of these types of social organization as failing because that's what they've been told. Do a little digging and you'll find they were promisingly successful. In terms of long term sustainability we have yet to see, but our democracy for sure isn't working and we're all gung-ho about that........so what's the harm in finding out?

Ever wonder why they are so far behind? Hmmm...perhaps our "advancement" is on the backs of others. To me unification does not necessarily mean one government. I means one global power. The States are going for this, but I don't think they'll reach it. The empire and/or a lot of the ecosystem will collapse before this happens.
