Not achievable;e due to human nature. We don't fight because someone invented it. We fight because that is who we are.

True. All I was saying is we don't have enough information to know this

In a perfect world, yes. World peace can be achieved. However the impossible factor isn't due to a lack of cooperation yet because humans exist on the planet. We're hard wired to be greedy and are tempted to exploit things when the opportunity arises. It's why every tribe from ancient times that were nice to others were wiped out as greedy tribes saw their kindness as weakness and exploited it by invading them before they had a chance to build defences. So the only ones left to pass on their genes were the greedy humans.
It sucks but that's just how we are and chances are always will be.

If you deny all the reasons against it... yeah, anything is possible. the fact is that the reasons against it exist and therefore it will never be possible. There are way too many different thoughts and groups in the world to achieve world peace, especially nowadays with social media. There will always be conflict. The best we can hope for is tolerance for other cultures and trying to do good to our cultural standards imo

Reply to comment by SomeRetard-png in Fully blind people don’t see the same thing we do when our eyes are closed ; they do not see black, they simply do not see. by KoexD
If you close one eye your brain ignores the signal from the closed eye. That is what people who are completely blind see, nothing.

Reply to comment by TroyBenites in The direction of temperature is arbitrary. There is no reason for hot objects to be assigned a larger number than cold ones by Crux_AMVS24
That answer calls up another question.
Why do you view larger numbers as 'up?'
Because OP's thought said nothing about up or down of course, and there's nothing stopping you from making a thermometer where numbers that are physically higher on the thermometer are smaller numbers

Whats your definition of world peace?
No international wars? No civil wars? No interpersonal conflicts? No gang violence? Economic warfare?
