Literally the same premise as the OP but presented with much better, more nuanced rhetoric that’s actually reasonable instead of “dumb person wishes for for obviously bad thing for no reason other than because they are dumb”
That woman’s name? Helen of Troy.
Someone needs to read Pandora’s jar.
I believe that to some extent this literally explains the chaos in the world right now. Bored spoiled people wanting excitement and to feel something.
mmhmm
more like rich people want more money and don’t care that’s it costs countless lives.
Pretty much this. There are people with certain interests that benefit from current events. It is simply that acquiring those benefits do not require them to meet any of the consequences due to how we have structured our society. The way it is now, there exist layer upon layer of various degrees of separation between the person making the decision and the actual consequences from that decision.

I realize now I’ve seen these people in the wild. When men are recorded in a video doing innocent or “girly” things, someone in the comments inevitably says “men used to go to war”, like a kind of celebration of that fact, like they are specifically sad or disappointed that men get to actually enjoy life instead of suffering and committing atrocities on a battlefield.
She reminds me of an ex and many people like her. They’d say “how can you be happy if ypu don’t know sadness.” Fuck that idea and everything that comes with it.
preachhh
tbf it “kinda” makes sense but some people just take it to the extreme. Knew a person who would quit jobs and things because “it got too comfortable”. Big wtf
he then proceedes to beat her, sparking a 100-year war
Daaang
Next time bring a more cunning linguist.
I would make a much more specific wish - decrease everyone’s greed level by 50%. I think changing human nature by that much would be enough for altruism and cooperation to overbalance selfishness and fear.
What if it was world peace but also a bunch of dogs everywhere
At war with each other. With tanks.
