It was. My grandmother told me a story about how she used to visit her cousin in the 1920s. Her uncle had been gased in WWI and was bedridden. Her memories of her uncle are of him lying in bed and coughing up blood half a decade after the war ended. He was still in his 20s when he died.
You don't get it, horrifically dying for fat bankers' interests and the creation of the state of Israel is actually based and redpilled. Anons read Storm of Steel after all. It's cool as long as you're lucky to keep your psychological and physical health to write a novel or something about your awesome experience.
Yeah, war is always glorified because the government needs men to go and fight (and women to b***h to them that they're cowards if they refuse) but war is unironically hell.
The movie in OP is pretty meh and heavy handled, but it does show the realities of the real world - the generals are eating nice food and ordering thousands of people to their death like it's nothing and the plebs get their dicks blown off.
Yeah, due to the experiences my ancestors had in WWI my grandfather volunteered for the navy instead of waiting to be drafted into the army. He mu cousins and I constant stories as kids but never any about the war (he was in both the Atlantic and the Pacific). Being in the navy allowed him to pick up a trade he used for his later career but he didn't get to pursue any of his dreams because he spent his 20s at war and had a wife and a kid to take care of before it ended. One thing that always gets missed is how it upends the opportunities the generation involved can pursue. Sure, the Americans came out with the GI Bill but if you already have a wife and kids in an era that didn't have prolonged adolescence like ours the war is your college.
Greatest Gen: focused on building a better world and pretty much everyone was involved in the war (i.e. it isn't a mark of distinction)
Boomers: the half that protested the war won the culture war so service wasn't seen a heroic but tragic instead
GenX: had easy conflicts that didn't traumatize anyone and came up at the same time boomers were glorifying their (Greatest Gen) parents as they started to die off (i.e. they get the trickle down glory by being associated with the military)
Millenials: still get the "thank you for your service" shit but Afghanistan/Iraq were basically buried at the time and have since been memory-holed
>total zoomer death
Yeah i've aged out of the draft (unless shit is absolutely dire), so I no longer care. Clear out the zoomies so the job market is wide open for my kids
doesn't matter. contrarians on Cinemaphile and in general think arabs are unstoppable killing machines because America retreated from Afghanistan and terrorists have a gore fetish which they satisfy by slowly beheading civilians and children

It is chud
only weak men think that
>t. chudcels that can't even bench 1pl8
You've never been in the military.
t. has never been in a single fight
I hear ukraine is looking for volunteers
Prove it.
It is tho
It really is.
If it isn't a war for killing commies, then it's a bad war.
Yeah, any force that threatens out glorious capitalistic GLOBOhomosexual overlords must be eradicated.

War became holy for the aryans.
War for the right reasons is based
Bloodshed needlessly on the industrial scale is very bad

Boomers: Always described as never talking about the war
GenX: Will mention their service anytime they get a chance
Is there a reason behind this?

Zoomers: ...
Also, I skipped silent gen. They basically had the Korean War which is noted for being overlooked by Western countries (and "silent" gen).
Thankfully a lot of people are about to experience it again
Remember all the media shilling about a draft in the last 6 months? total zoomer death
>2 more weeks trust the plan
Two more elections to flatten the curve?
Could've been worse, he could've been a mudslime
homie, nobody is going to moblize the fats unless America is invaded.
Stay on your containment board.
Make me, 2020s tourist
