    The stakes between these two generations weren’t the same at all. WWII was a real crisis where world freedom was actually at stake.

    Nowadays, the wars are all a bunch of made up conflicts to help countries and their businesses keep control over world resources and exploit people around the world for money.

      It is the 1% vs the working class, not generation vs generation.

      And all we ‘know’ about any of it is what we’re told.

          Compare how much you know because you figured it out to how much you know based on information from other people.

            The internets way open now, plenty of places to find out what’s going on vs back then where you literally just had the local radio and 1 of 3 TV channels feeding you the info.

              People lie to get other people to fight for their benefit. Every war ever has been about that.

                So you think that the war against the Nazis and the axis force was based on some nation’s lies to their own benefit?

                  Probably, but how should I know?

            Yeah, I try to figure out as much as I can on my own, unfortunately not everybody has that kind of time. So, information must be shared once somebody found it out. That’s what we’re doing when we’re talking to other people.

              And when that information is made up to decide your political decisions?
