LOL, unfortunately, a sudden global outbreak of Mahayana Buddhism probably isn’t in the offing anytime soon.
Buddhists and Zen adherents have had plenty of wars and fucked-up shit, too. There’s no magic system of thought, and you can get just as tradition-bound with Zen as you can with anything else. The WWII-era Japanese dudes who marched Japan into militarism were Zen Buddhists.
