So you're suggesting more indoctrination and the abolition of states aka. conquest and colonialism?

Because the way we're going, there's going to be another world war long before people willingly succumb to a global state...

I'm not suggesting those, nor am I suggesting anything at all. I just say what I think the reasons and the future trajectory is.

No need to be binary about the potential political changes. I only say that nation-states are bad, I din't say that states per se are bad.

Also, the next world war won't be before anything but the end of all of us. I didn't ever say anything about a global state, but what I think indeed is that, analogous to programming, state should be contained in the smallest possible context, that is, I think that smaller, more focused states with more direct democracy and with more (respective to today's nation-states) people that indeed share common values, would be more stable and peaceful. I know that such an idea will get many objections (even I do have my objections), but I believe such a political situation would be better for everyone.
