What's particularly galling about this era is that noone in power anywhere seems commited to peace-building, unlike any other era since WW2.

Maybe peace-building was always partly self-serving, but it worked. Nowadays, it's just PR & endless/fruitless "peace talks," rote rhetoric.

There's 0 commitment to address the root causes of conflict anywhere, and no real peace movt (end this war, don't care about the other one).

And to top it all off, we now have hard rapture zealots in power in the US, planning ruthless, -possibly even nuclear- wars, to "end wars."

Fallout games were flawed on several levels, but they got one thing right: warfare won't stop if we manage to destroy civilization.
