Nation States are just another tool of the powerful to subjugate, a means to keep us divided as if we weren't the same species.

Instead we see being a united species as some evil conspiracy, which is why I'm not really a fan of our species anymore. We'd rather have a chance of beating our fellow man than equitably sharing the fruits of this world. We don't love the person on the other side of the table, we want to screw them and get more. That disgusts me, personally.
