Burying your head in the sand is definitely more comfortable, as is repeating stats. But if you live in the same reality as everyone else and are paying any attention whatsoever, seems hard to believe that you wouldn't take notice of the Russian war in Ukraine, Israel's attack on Gaza, tensions heating up between Israel & its neighbors, Switzerland holding a vote on whether or not to remain a neutral company in the event of a war, Russia & China constantly attacking countries' computer & physical infrastructure, etc.

Being able to point to a war isn't evidence that the world is less peaceful now than before. The claim wasn't "war is no more".

> "Russia & China constantly attacking countries' computer & physical infrastructure, etc."

Is this in any way comparable to physical warfare?
