Afflicted with reason
If you restrict it to killing people you leave out other forms of attack. Most of the cold war was about information, misinformation, political posturing and finance. Actual casualties were rare.If I burn your year's worth of grains then quibbling that I killed you in the cold 2 months from now instead of with a rock now seems a bit... immaterial to the point debated, being cooperation/competition and the great ape.
Most examples I'm coming up with are also kind of besides the point. Something greater in here re "subjugation" not being either 100% adversarial or cooperative?
Here is a broader look at Senate rules and how they evolve. For over a century, filibusters were rare and ended off the floor. In its day, cloture was the nuclear option, though nuclear power had not been discovered. The article suggests that it is time to remove the filibuster option for nominations.
