Not sure about you, but I don't concede any moral authority to "The Multibillion dollar global defense industry" so the refutation is invalid to say the least.


I do. warfare breeds innovation via the military industry, jets, computers, internet, radar, advanced etc etc etc etc, All of which were catalyzed by warfare.

You don't need to like it, but you probably wouldn't be able to let me know without acknowledging it.


Wow.

The industry has technological authority, but that doesn't mean it is owed a moral authority.

Just how (I hope) you wouldn't give moral authority to a grooming gang just because they're super efficient in their trafficking techniques.
