I don’t know who this guy is, but someone I follow on twitter took this screenshot and called him a Nazi and I’m willing to believe her.

Anyway, I’d love to ship this guy to the front lines so he can experience the reality of what war is actually like. I wonder if he’d still think the same.

    Wonder if anyone has any opinions on the movie itself, seems like a great review from herr Synth here.

      Amazing movie pointing out the futility the wwi. Just millions of people dying because one cousin colonized a piece of Africa or Asia another cousin wanted. The result of wwi should have been everyone going communist and not dying in a trench inhaling mustard gas all over again in wwii, but history is what it is unfortunately.

      Edit: Aside from that, a great movie. Really brings home the gruesome nature of war and fills you with dread. It’s amazing, I highly recommend it.

    Movie is good. Incredibly good. Highlights how wwi was the most pointless suffering ever. Why wouldn’t you become communist after wwi?

    I have to die In a trench inhaling mustard gas because what? Cousins fighting over colonies? GTFOH.

      WWI was one of the most stupidest conflicts I’ve ever heard of. So much tragedy because one guy was assassinated (there’s obviously more to it but that’s, like, the focal point). Definitely going to give this movie a watch, and the book a read.

    Lmaoooo one of the main plot points of the book is that when Paul returns home on leave, he is disgusted by people talking about the war and wondering why all the soldiers are such cowards and why they aren’t already in Paris. Imagine somehow being a representation of a parody from a 100 year old book.

    Btw, there’s no doubt that Synth is a Nazi (of course, there’s the possibility of synth being an edgy 12-year-old) bcs synth’s pfp is a literal SS member

    “Storm of Steel” isn’t exactly unambiguously pro-war, either. Though it’s my experience that way more people quote that book than have actually read it.
