No, it's the truth. You would have been sitting around in 1914 saying, "we have telegraph wires and automobiles. things are different now."

There were no huge chunks of the population that could instantly communicate with others in a lingua franca.

We have the perfect example in front of us: watch Trump, he actually uses his "instant communication" Twitter account as a method of incitement. America will be judged by the actions of one Great Man, including the ability to almost instantly go to war.

Yet he's only there because of the underlying trends & forces in our society.

People are war weary as fuck. He cannot just do that. I guarantee it. Any long term war he starts he is out.

I wouldn't say America is war-weary. It's not in America's culture to be war weary. America is tired of drawn out military action. If Trump scores relatively quick military victories (which I doubt he will), you'll see Americans get over the "war weariness" pretty quick.
