You seem to be arguing with anecdotal figures from your childhood. I'm sorry the people you grew up with were hypocrites, but if you want to claim that reflects on either Computer People for Peace or the peace movement in general, you'll need to give us more details.
The problem is that the core issue is the mind and these “peace” type arguments date back thousands of years, even in 340s AD in China’s Annals of Lu Buwei you find these same people not addressing their own minds and preaching “peace” or passivsem. The reality is if you bring up reasonable things they can do, such as not promoting egotism or having a materialistic views of everything which directly lead to a lack of what they feel is “peace”, it just goes over their head and they get angry. Again this is has been going on with these people for thousands of years now. So rather than some fake form of peace that doesn’t work, how about addressing the underlying causes of suffering for everyone instead and stop rejecting them?
Nobody claimed they did.
