Granted.

No wars will never end, unless you personally step in to end them. Minor skirmishes now turn into epic wars of genocidal annihilation. It's down to you to stop them.

What?

'I wish to end all war.'

"Okay, wish granted. All wars will never end"

Make it make sense.

They're saying the monkey paw interpretation is the wisher want to end the wars. "I wish to [be the one to] end all wars."

Ah thanks, that was the semantics I was misunderstanding.

[-] Jankatarch@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

They are saying "I" aren't they?

As in, I wish to be the one who ends all wars. They only end when I stop them. Each one, individually.
