Sacrificing your life, your innocence and morality in order to secure your lands from imperialist threats that would see millions of your people wiped out or oppressed?
is it not selfless to damn yourself to whatever form of oblivion awaits you so that the next generations might not have to?
Why do we have to kill each other though? Why can’t war just be a giant fist fight or like WrestleMania’s Royal Rumble? Why not conduct war in a video or board game?
Why even use soldiers? Let the leaders fight each other! They’re the ones having beef!
I think war has a way of proving the fallacy of a binary moral stance. Good and Evil aren’t as clear cut as we would like it to be.
The only thing it’s good at is at showing who is heroic and who is craven. Heroic isn’t perdefinition morally good, it’s selflessness.
And what is selfless about killing people?
Protecting people with risk of death of injury from those who want to kill them
Sacrificing your life, your innocence and morality in order to secure your lands from imperialist threats that would see millions of your people wiped out or oppressed?
is it not selfless to damn yourself to whatever form of oblivion awaits you so that the next generations might not have to?
