Maybe you are being genuine so I'll try to be too, you're wrong to fear what comes next. Historically new leaders don't in totalitarian states don't want an external war, they want to secure their lot, make sure they are protected, shore up support.

Children are being kidnapped, prisoners of war ar being tortured, civilians raped, towns and cities cut off from water or flooded, left to freeze over winter. What exactly do you think is coming next? Someone with more efficiency? Less morals? Thanos?

I was being genuine, sorry if it sounded rude.

I guess with all the shit happening in the world, i feel... hopeless

Fair enough, "the devil you know" argument is flawed and is oft thrown around by the apathetic.

Your feelings are justified but generally speaking things are trending upwards, progress marches on
