War is truly the human race's natural state
it builds character, gives purpose, advances technology and motivates progress
war has shaped history
it has made and unmade nations and empires
it has created heroes and redeemed nobodies
as war decreases, degeneracy increases
war has been and will be, humanities finest hour and most useful tool
For a while, I really wanted to get into fighting shape than get over to Kurdistan to join the YPG. But it turns out they basically just use western recruits for photo ops, no combat duty whatsoever. There aren't any wars available to the average American.
t. somebody who has never been to war
>>25827530
you're probably right about that but OP never implied anything contrary to what you're implying
>>25827524
>There aren't any wars available to the average American.
Kek sure
>>25827530
> iblyigns
neither have you
>>25827597
I mean unless you want to go join ISIS and be that asshole. And if you do that, they'll laugh at you behind your back and throw your life away like that Australian kid. The only US troops which see shit are special forces.

We have become too good at it.
>>25827725
interesting
i believe fighting should be kept at 1980s level of technology, to keep humans in the picture
>>25827784
Yes, those drones and nukes just make the war un-human
>>25827472
Oh fucking yup. You're probably the type of guy that got bullied in high school and or has never been in a real fight
>>25827847
i have been in a real fistfight, which is more than the majority of people can say
>>25827883
Do you like them? And I think most people have been in at least one fight.
>>25827530
>>25827847
>>25827922
you all realize OP never said war is enjoyable, right?
>>25827530
You don't need to have fought in a war to know that it does infact advance technology in some form or way.
That being said, romanticizing war and fighting is fucking retarded.
>>25827998
You do realize mankind does not have a natural state right? You can say the degenerate periods between wars are more natural and war is just a filler
>>25827922
i didn't like it, but it fills me with determination to have a clear objective to defend my own wellbeing, and maybe even that of others
>>25828056
yeah, but what is nobler?
self sacrifice for the purpose of serving your people?
or self indulgence at the disregard of everyone else's wellbeing?
Would the world be a better place today of war had never taken place?
>>25828157
it would be objectively worse, no.
>>25828180
We would litterly be cavemen.
>>25827524
the true war is the war between pleasure and self control
>>25828128
2nd one
>>25828394
>2nd
>equal to one
are you retarded
>>25828394
> degeneracy is noble
fucking disgusting
get out of here, fucking roastie
>>25828128
you try to make war seem trivial and the only people participating are the people that want to. you're stupid as fuck
>>25828521
Here is war
>>25828549
Here is degeneracy
>>25828549
> le killing civies meme
they were only victims because they didn't want to take up arms and defend their country
that isn't war, that's the result of not wanting to go to war, when war is at your doorstep
the result of wilful ignorance and denial
>>25828614
There is women and babies in that body pile you dolt.
>>25828586
> making it look good
this is degeneracy
>>25828614
>damn children not going to the frontlines
>>25828680
women can fight
babies can grow up to fight
literally no excuse
>>25828722
fucking lol
legacy captcha 1588, one off from 1488 :(
>>25828690
I would rather be in that scenario than this one .
>>25828722
Stop triggering me
I know most of you are trolls or teenagers, but you are literally too stupid if you think war is anything desirable.
Something that has to happen sometimes, yes. Something to look forward to, no.
>>25828871
I've been saying this whole fucking thread
no one mentioned war being fucking desirable
OP said war was necessary and came with good side effects and symptoms like technology
learn to fucking read you retarded dipshit
>>25828913
And you learn to parse context, fuckface. OP wouldn't be posting this if he didn't in some way idealize war, and he's far from alone on this site in doing so.
>>25828913
It has a lot of bad side effects too like dying. And destroying knowledge and cultural centers
never been at war but was a poor kid in third world country gringo wannabe in south america.
a few weeks when 12 i scape from home to live in the streets, was fighting and all that shit.
i dont want to sound edgy, but that time when food was limitated and the only thing that i have was my friends that i rejected when i was on school because other ''friends'' were cool and all that shit, were one of the bests times in my shitty life. in that world i wasnt a outcast
also i return home because almost died, now im empty inside but i will go back to that times.
dont know if this little story is useful to anyone
>>25827922
They feel good to me having a challenge and having something to feel angry about fight club was right but they are scary getting into the ending to fight club was also right though
