How to not romanticize war?

[Random]

Today I read about how people romanticize violence and war. The article was talking about people just like me. Playing games and watching movies has made me feel like it is normal. How do I convince myself and my friends to not glorify violence and war?

Stop hanging posters in your bedroom depicting naked imperialist autocrats wearing a see-through teddy, lipstick and high heels. Roll them up and hide them under your bed until the war is over.

I dunno. Who could resist a man like Frederick the Great of Prussia?

Wut 😐

you do realize that for the most part those prussian memes are direct succession of german, austrian, french imperialism, as well as 20th century marxist play with history that tried to force attention from any kind of historic justice in the region?

what's really funny is that as a finn you are butt of the joke.

war is only to enrich a few people or corpos most of time
commoners would never start one they just want to farm their wheat or whatever they do normally and go to church and store

This is still going on? Just go on ukraine subreddit and find your nearest NSFW post, and bam, you'll quickly stop romanticizing war.

Less so the shocking content itself, but more so the fact that there is a disturbing demographic of sick-minded people on the internet who relish in the deaths of people they consider to be subhuman for the heinous crime of being enlisted in the 'wrong' side of a war.

Showing them the dark side of war didn't help either.

Watch Saving Private Ryan, that will quickly convince you.

Imagine dying before you can even fire your gun because you drowned in the ocean from the heavy gear you had on. Like… bruh.
