I’m not a war hawk at all, and I used to have a similar viewpoint as you, but I’ve realized that all it takes is one crazy person with power to prove this whole idea completely naive and ignorant. Look at the Ukraine war and Putin for example.
And in a perfect world that’s not something that would happen, hence what I’m saying. Needing an army to counter people like Putin is not something we should be ok with because we shouldn’t be ok with people like Putin having power in the first place.
There will always be that one guy that ruins peace for everyone. We have had lots of times of peace but they all ended. All good things must come to an end
It’s not ok because having the need for an army isn’t something we should be ok with in the first place.

The need for an army will always exist no matter what you think is okay
How? If the world was at peace, why need an army? To keep evil at bay? Nuclear escalation anyone? No? I’m the only one who realizes that’s ridiculous?
