  • I don't agree with it but remembering those who've died, even if they do so in shitty circumstance being sent to kill people that should also be remembered isn't a bad thing, glorifying it is.

    Glorifying is what it's all about, though. If people wanted to genuinely do honour to the dead, they'd be agitating to make sure the lives of the living aren't wasted the same way. What we get instead is this necrophiliac virtue signalling and cosplay, from people who aren't so much honouring the dead as co-opting them to support nostalgia-soaked conservative politics.
