Usury

Too much difference in a too short amount of time?

Try to get along with all those different kinds of cultures, not in the least feeling threatened by what they themselves accepted in the first place. A usury-worship.

“Often those that criticise others reveal what he himself lacks.”

Shannon L. Alder

Interstate conflict is a conflict between two or more countries or states. It is usually characterized by a military confrontation, diplomatic disputes, and economic competition. Examples of interstate conflicts include the Cold War, the Korean War, and the Arab-Israeli conflict. (ao)

ChatGPT (jan23):

Yes, it is possible that usury could contribute to interstate conflict and the collapse of multilateralism. When certain countries or regions are struggling economically due to the impact of usury, they may be more likely to engage in conflicts with other countries or regions in order to gain access to resources or markets. This can lead to a breakdown in international relations and cooperation, as countries become more focused on their own self-interests.

Additionally, if usury leads to a situation where certain countries or regions are struggling to repay their debts, they may become more likely to default on their loans, which can lead to economic instability and further conflicts.

In addition, usury can also contribute to the collapse of multilateralism by undermining the ability of countries and organizations to work together to address global challenges such as poverty, inequality, and climate change. When countries are focused on their own economic self-interests, they may be less likely to invest in and support multilateral efforts to address these issues.

In conclusion, usury can contribute to interstate conflict and the collapse of multilateralism by creating economic disparities and instability, leading countries to focus on their own self-interests and undermining the ability of countries and organizations to work together to address global challenges.
