The lies about the “Stalinist” GDR will one day deflate in the same way that the Reichstag fire message deflated. Light will be shed on the causes of the tragedy that, almost in the space of one night, befell the GDR - Erich Honecker

don't go into the humanities because they're unprofitable and don't go into stem cuz its getting torn apart right now and don't go into buisness because it's competetive and speculative and don't go into education because it pays like shit. Just lay on thr ground. Just lay on the ground.

it actually makes me feel fully out of touch with consensus when people say an author is anti-war "because he said war is hell!"

please. please. do you know a single thing about Recorded Human History. "war is hell" is so, so frequently THE pro-war take, and the entire reason soldiers and officers receive social esteem for fighting. the honorable duty of undergoing The Trials Of War on behalf of your polity &/or beliefs is one of the fundamental cornerstones of masculinity in SO, SO many human cultures. what is anyone EVEN SAYING!!!

in a modern context, one could even argue that the emphasis placed on the traumatic nature of waging war, of participating in war, is part of how the participants morally absolve themselves from their participation. There is a common idea in liberalism (but not only in liberalism) that the trauma of killing one person, or ten, a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand, et cetera, is its own punishment, regardless of whether the persons killed were soldiers or civilians, whether it could even be considered right or wrong, whether it was necessary or unnecessary to kill them. Under this logic, renumeration or reconstruction for the victims is considered functionally irrelevant because of the exonerating suffering of the soldier.

In “Israel” they call this kind of narrative in media “Shooting and crying.”

This kind of apologia is/was often applied to the US military’s actions in every historical conflict, up to the present day. I have also seen American police officers use this kind of apologia when they are criticized for discrimination, murder, and various other crimes. They say “Oh, you civilians couldn’t possibly understand how hard it is to be a cop. It’s so difficult and traumatic.”

I think this idea of “exonerating trauma” is both dangerous and widespread. I’m sure there are many other examples of this type of rhetoric.

“‎[My cat Mimi] impressed Lenin tremendously, he said that only in Siberia had he seen such a magnificent creature, that she was … a majestic cat. She also flirted with him, rolled on her back and behaved enticingly toward him, but when he tried to approach her she whacked him with a paw and snarled like a tiger.”

— Rosa Luxemburg (via pragnificent)
