79. By changing minds and changing leaders
I never said I had a viable, I said I had a belief. It isn't "hate" to believe a world without nation-states would be a better world. And that belief does not imply the killing of anyone. If we had to talk about a "plan" however, changing the minds of people and changing the political leadership whever we can to incrementally move more and more toward a more integrated world with blurred borders and less of an "us vs. them" mentality does not require the killing of anyone.

And BTW killing people does not necessary involve hate. It can involve protection, or defense. For example, should my gratefather, who fought in Normandy in WWII be labeled a "hater" for sacrificing himself to try to stop the awful agression and mass murder of the Nazis? He killed some people toward that aim, and "hate" wasn't what was in his heart.

My "arguments" are perfectly logical. You just don't like them. There's a big difference.
