So did the Nazis, so do the USA, China and Russia today. The latter three found out that if you swap hard with soft power, eternity is much closer.

it probably won't. You only have one life, live it to your fullest, don't let bullshit like this make your day worse. You can fight the battles you can win and accept that there are battles you can't fight because you'd burn out.
