🎵General's gathered in their masses🎵

It's not even much scenic and heroic, actually, despite armies trying their best to market it as all glossy and amazing.

Nah - just a meat grinder, dying in the dirt after your limbs got shredded by someone's grenade, or after getting a bullet into your chest. Painful. Lonely. Scary. Death. No one's gonna hail you; your corpse will be a shredded bloody meat covered in urine. A corpse that may never even get found. That's war.

And if you'll stay alive, you'll envy the dead. Death ahead, death behind. One order - and you can be convicted to certain end. In front - the enemy. On the back - soldiers of your own country ready to shoot you down. You lie in the trenches, hoping no grenade, no bomb will find its way there, your feet are cold, you feel feverish. No one cares. Everyone here is one foot in the grave. That's war.

Barely anyone who survives doesn't have severe PTSD. And the worst part - humans do it to themselves. For bullshit glory. Desperate for money. For their twisted model of honor. But really - because those in power don't see problem in letting other people die for their own interests.

If you're lucky to have never witnessed war, take a look at unedited, uncensored footage. Watch it, watch people die like animals for the most stupid reasons imaginable. Watch soldiers screaming in pain. Watch civilians dying in debris. That. Is. War.

We never deserved to have this on us, and it is people just like me and you who make this violence happen, who spill the blood, scared of meeting their own end right where they're at. This is stupid. This should end. And we can make a change.
