A while back i was watching POV footage of Ukraine/Russia warfare and there seemed to be this dark humor of comparing the warfare that these young-adults would go into, to Counter Strike Global Offensive (CSGO).
Given that the infantry forces that drive trench warfare i.e ground soldiers are typically young-adults that have now aged to play virtual video games.
Could there be an instance of widespread online consensus whereby young-adults internationally come to agree that physical warfare is senseless.
The senseless nature of warfare : "Empire of the Ants" by Bernard Werber
Sport has seemingly over the years been vector towards tension resolution (an international language). Given the abundant creative nature of e-sport why not have a warfare game (or any other game) that simulates planetary land and gives multiplayer access to a CSGO like environment.
Where physical land territory is determined by the active push of young-adults that love competitive gaming to rank and gain points for their country. Given a ranking system, history of successes achievements... ETC
Now you might tell me go outside and take some air...
But I have done enough digital wiretransfers for plots of land. Or payed for my food using a swipe of my apple pay to tell someone I deserved my food or plot of land by sending over some pixels/numbers on a screen.
It seems absurd and senseless to still fight over land physically using pre-historic methods.
Let me know what you think.
This idea arised when watching Lex Fridman's recent podcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4wLXNydzeY&t=5s
