I had a thought..

by

So I was just sitting here with a bit of drinks in my system, thinking.
I had spent some time watching violent videos today which may have sparked this thought;

I wish to live in a world where no one feels the need that a certain type of person or way of thinking should not exist..
Which doesn't seem too uncommon right?

But I had an epiphany of sorts.. Is this wish contradictory to itself?

There are so many people who believe that there is a lot of things that should not exsist in the world; and in a way wishing that THAT didn't exist is almost the same thing.

Can true peace ever really exist?

Just wanted to write this down...

Yeah, it really is a case of "Everyone needs to think like me so we can all get along," and no, I've never been able to figure out just how so many disparate ideas con actually coexist, so...

Honestly, peace will come when someone carries the biggest stick and goes full New World Order on the Earth.

These thoughts are what I was actually toying around with when I first started writing: What would happen if a new world was started, with a dictatorship controlling the thoughts and opinions of people, of the entire world, where true peace _would_ be possible, with no one wanting to exterminate anyone, everyone conforming to this one ideology, one vision.

Of course, it's a bit of a morbid thought, but it is interesting to explore. What happens when some people leave the boundaries of what's allowed to know and think? What happens if you join a resistance movement, which is actually controlled by the government, to make the people feel like they have free will, because you realize that you're being controlled like a puppet?
