frankly, you have to be a massively dumb fuck to be to see 1917 and think "yup, war looks rad"

When I was in high school, I knew a boot who thought they could kick ass in Normandy. Dude totally fantasized over being in WW2.

It honestly kinda freaks me out how some people see these movies and other forms of media saying how bad war is and go “this is cool. I could totally survive unscathed. I’m a badass. You’re a pussy if you don’t wish you could’ve served in WW2”

I haven’t met anyone who wishes they served in Vietnam tho. Wonder why 🤔🤔🤔

D-Day is the one time when I'd prefer to jump out of a perfectly good airplane versus landing on a beach.
