Iranian public displays of military propaganda is so unhinged but the aesthetic goes hard

If only it was fiction

War is a financial externality in which young people kill one another without knowing each other in order to please old people who do know each other but doesnt kill each other.

I find the subject matter of this book extremely relevant given the state of the world today.

Humans never change. 

The reason to read history is to be prepared for the future.

Think about that for a second.

good book explaining the behavioural mechanics for why Europe would wreck itself going to war in ww1 and why it could easily do it again (even though the idea seems so foreign)

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rPbQjA4XKLE This war is going to get so disgustingly in-your-face. So many people are going to be butchered and we'll be exposed.

Is war e/acc? 

Multi prong push of pro war propaganda happening atm. Conscription articles, Netflix documentaries, movies coming. “Ww3 is here guys, and btw it’s all your historical fault so you deserve this, accept it”

Wars do create new technology but also destroy capital.

Pls discuss

Flat out war is ineffective accelerationism. 

The most e/acc thing is a globally peaceful society which puts all its resources towards levelling up the Kardashev scale. 

Cold War nostalgists will still argue its conditions brought about necessary civilisational competition. But the war was abstractified due to nukes.

Was recently recommended Patton https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dObTXYa-_n4 and Kelly's Heroes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iby1Ni0VJxg both 1970 movies

At the Battle of Fontenoy (1745), Louis XV & his young son witnessed a French victory over British, Dutch & Austrian forces. The Dauphin was excited at seeing so many dead enemy soldiers. The King told him, "You see what a victory costs. The blood of our enemies is still the blood of men. The true glory is to spare it"

The true glory is to spare the blood of men

China is building reserve militias and you still think WW3 is not going to happen?

Imagine if Pyongyang and Beijing coordinated and synchronized their respective invasions of South Korea and Taiwan to shock-and-awe the West and make a military response less likely

This is historically and geopolitically accurate. Haven't read many essays by Americans who get it so well.

In the future, we should not use humans anymore in wars. Instead, we should use robots as they are way more efficient and prevents millions of human casualties.

Wars and fights will always exist as it is in the human nature. 

Human casualties can easily be prevented when using robots.

What do you think about this?

What if the culling of the herd was always the point?
