Does "mowing all our lawns" imply dumb people make a living cutting the grass? I've never heard that expression. I don't want to come off as aggressive, but I'm curious about your viewpoint and stopped following the news.

Could Russia logistically wage war on the world, and why would it? Should the US go to war with Russia, and if so, how would non-Western nations react?

It's a scary time for everyone, and it seems as though the US wants a conflict with China. The US engages in more conflicts than any modern nation and coined the nickname, the world's biggest terrorist. There are over 700 US military bases globally, and the West justifies this by insisting they are the good guys, but the world sees the US as an imperialist bully.

None of this excuses Russia's attack on Ukraine, but I wonder if US military and economic supremacy threaten governments, prompting aggression. Maybe persistently investing in weapons and military escalate violence by stimulating states to do the same. More wars isn't making the world more peaceful, and aren't we tired of the mass deaths? Surely, humanity can do better than this.
