There are no countries, there are no ideologies, we have emotional attachments to our family and tribe or clan but beyond that we're sociopaths, as herodotus or someone said "the strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must". That's just the way shit be.

You're just less conscious of political reality if you actually believe in any ideology. Now philosophy on the other hand, that's something, if you happen to have some genuine belief in ethics then ironically the best way to put these ethics into practice is to accept this cynical worldview that we are all machiavellian sociopaths, yourself and people who share your beliefs included, it's the only way you can be realistic and effective. Beyond this though there's nothing, just a cold soulless void that extinguishes dreams.

I'm just saying, that's all. Your most heartfelt tender beliefs are all bullshit, in the end it all boils down to a dick swinging contest.

Accepting the truth does not mean approving of the state of things.

I can't put this any clearer, it's like you're disagreeing with "1+1=2", I'm not sure what you're thinking or what else to say here.

So it's too difficult for you to understand? Let's take it one step at a time then.
There are no countries
What is so difficult to understand about this?

It's already happened in most places.
The majority of the world would have to be anarchist for this statement to be true.
There's no sense of power or authority and best of all nobody cares.
People would have to be omnipotent and the epitome of moral righteousness for this statement to be true. What is just is not self-evident and no matter how ethical someone is there are not perfectly ethical, even if everyone in the world was a zealous anarchist there would still need to be a state to resolve disputes.
