He also died fighting fascism. Now his children and grandchildren are the fascists.
The man in the picture (assuming he isn’t ai generated) is a bit too dead to care about wasted lives, his own or anyone elses.
Well that’s why he’s talking to us from the past. He doesn’t know we exist, he doesn’t know who he’s talking to. Technically, he isn’t even talking and this isn’t even his face. He is not just a ghost, but an abstract concept. He is a spokesthing of all soldiers, whose average experiences can all reliably be averaged out, based on the “serve and die like nothing” routine of military casualties, into being essentially a wasted life of fear and regret
So, really he isn’t dead. He isn’t alive. He is just an idea behind a picture, born from past atrocities marked by the deaths of many who wore faces much like the one that he wears here
Sir, this is a Wendy’s
When it’s over we get reincarnated and have to deal with all this bullshit all over again, in a new body.
