I don’t know what that looks like, or how it would work, and I don’t know that I can blame anybody working within the system we have particularly for not finding and using these extrasystemic means, particularly as the attackers control some of the levers.

Laut Our World in Data, stieg die Zahl der Kriegstoten in Europa ab 2022 massiv an. Die Jahre 2022–2024 sind die tödlichsten in Europa seit dem Zweiten Weltkrieg. Kein anderer europäischer Konflikt seit 1945 hatte so viele Tote in so kurzer Zeit.

Activism needs to recognize hollow extrasystemic action has achieved nothing but discredit activists and the public's faith in anything of durable value being possible from it.
That's starved people of hope and crushed civil society.
We need more than marches. We need mature competitive leaders.

Das kommt aber nur daher, daß wir jetzt mit SM vernetzt sind. Vorher haben uns die Kriege nicht so tangiert, obwohl es nie so wenige Betroffene im Verhältnis zur Weltbevölkerung gab. Die ist in 45 Jahren v. 4,5 auf 8 Mrd. gewachsen.🤔🤷♂️

That doesn't even include "excess deaths", caused as a result of war.
We must remember them all.
We must bring an end to war, before war brings an end to us.

Yeah, thats why I specifically said extrasystemic, because trying to codify these rules means they’re subject to capture just like any others.

Indeed.
(It was suggested I consult total mortality counter, but that only supports the claim in a narrow sense, while demonstrating that treating the 30-year period as the same block is...unwise. Not to mention the implications of Tigray deaths outweighing Ukraine even in 2022.)
