Here's a list of tons of leftist movies.
the fact they had around a 50% survival rate and the air crews kept complaining about how the higher ups dont care if they all die was so 
especially when if you pause the screen theres a newspaper clipping that basically says soviet hordes throw themselves at germans
What did Parenti say about war costs? I’m only familiar with his anti imperialism stuff.
I’ll need to rearch to find the clipping, that sounds like a nice ironic moment to screen cap
THEIR suicidal attacks, OUR brave self sacrificial heroes
Gotcha, didn’t realize he originated that as well.
In a sense, war is all about acceptable losses to achieve the objective. You can rarely at most take/destroy a contested objective without losses, it’s about managing the losses so it’s a net gain on the larger board. People are going to die, just minimize it when able (if it’s worth it).
The raid in (episode 3/4 I think) where they decide to not call off the bombing run after the fog prevents the escort is a good example of this. They got sacrificed. It was the right call if it led to the ball bearing factory being destroyed.
The propaganda comes into play where “we couldn’t have known/they bravely knew and chose to fly/ect” vs uncaring command/cruel calculus/ ect
War doesn’t care about language, that’s how they are won.
it really surprised me how inaccurate the bombings were.
also, the jackets in the show are fire
It kills me how a modern recreation is hundreds of dollars.
For the time the bombings were accurate as fuck, but as a character said (paraphrased) it lands on germany who gives a fuck”
I'm enjoying it. It really does show how terrifying being in a bomber must've been. Though in the back of my mind I can't help but feel people will walk away thinking this is still what war is like. Lord knows how many redditors still bring up WWII as evidence we can totally take on China.
I didn’t consider that, I’ll with nice sharp into the of anyone who claims that the brave Israelis are risking death in their genocide jets. I can see the shitty takes already, a vision of tweets yet to be
I'll never watch anything with that Elvis guys stupid fucking pouty face in it.
Who?
Austin Butler, I don't like his face, I find it really upsetting.
Damn, and here I am thinking he’s hot lol. Different strokes
Do you mind if I ask how a face can be upsetting. Like I’ve seen ugly before, but I’ve never been viscerally upset by a face before assuming it’s intact.
I don't know really, He just has a super annoying looking face. It didn't help that the first time I saw his face it was in a promo for that baz lurman Elvis movie.
