hmm maybe yeah, or maybe we sensationalize war over all other good things that happen in history. you should check out the book humankind by rutger bregman, it’s a pretty good telling of how there’s been “better” in history than what we are told

100s of millions of deaths to war over the centuries is hardly sensationalization. The fact is that until the appearance of classical liberalism and the recognition of natural law, the life of the average person has been arduous and short. Even then, humans haven't changed at all. We've accomplished some things for sure, but utlimately we have no power to improve ourselves. That is, unfortunately, a satanic lie.
