daseins coment that the 1917 movie is about using Tinder is very poignant: It doesn't matter what the subject matter of a movie (or novel) formally is, that is not what the movie is "about". Men who have not been to war cannot make "war movies", you can literally only write what you know. so whatever you dress it up ass, it becomes a "war flavored" story about, using tinder. that's the emotional core that the author has available. interestingly, the entire super-hero comic genre was initially created by vietnam/korean war veterans. something to think about!

"there’s been a lot of talk about insincerity and larping on the traditionalist extremist online right lately, and honestly these days I feel like I’m the only one who actually reads manga"
