Civilizations die from suicide, not by murder.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I do not believe that civilizations have to die because civilization is not an organism. It is a product of wills.
Suicide is not an answer, it's destruction.
The idea of suicide is of a very set narrative, as if killing yourself is a definitive statement. But it can be just as meaningless as throwing a stone in a river.
People still kill in the name of religion. We haven't evolved to the point where we're one tribe called humans.
But this is not to say that the society which inflicts capital punishment commits murder.
I don't believe Iran is a suicide state.
From my personal point of view, the Animals are dead. They killed themselves.
For the nation to live, the tribe must die.
A civilization is destroyed only when its gods are destroyed.
A civilization which has taken over the world cannot be said to be dying.
