I didn't excuse anything. We're shit. But, it's the way things are.

Although, come to think of it, we'd probably just elect a world government if we weren't shit anyway. Just to coordinate things as we're being understanding and reasonable with each other.

In my uninformed understanding of humans and their history, unifications happen only in the face of crises and threats (and far from all the time, clearly). Maybe--hopefully--the world eventually makes common cause in order to stabilise the world as things spiral out of control in a few decades, but right now our species appears more concerned about whom gets to dictate what and how humans should live and behave like.
