Well you dropped a historic amount of bombs on it...so no shit? No worries though I don't tend to go for strolls in places that are crime scenes for an almost complete genocide.
Term? Are you serious? It is a metaphor, honestly the fact that you can't tell the difference between similes and analogs makes me really concerned about your ability to make your broader point even though this conversation I am roping you into has nothing to do with this unnecessarily specific and overly involved tangent that doesn't actually challenge the fundamental basis of your argument....
editbefore you can cleverly respond I am going to pre-emptively be clever about that clever thing so I will just look even more clever so don't bother but also you have to respond that is just the etiquette of internet arguments FYI
Well it keeps happening because the military acts like it knows on an institutional level how to shape someone who will fight tooth and nail and use every tool at their disposal (even if it doesn't exist yet and they have to invent the necessary tools themselves) and the rest of society worryingly falls in line about it. Militaries all throughout history have proven exhaustively that their very structure and institutional values primarily promote rule followers who are catastrophically ill-equipped to operate in an environment of rapidly changing rules and evolving tactics.
No, if the militaries of the world actually gave a shit about this good improvisational comedy/theater teachers would all be on the payroll of various different defense agencies and would frequently be retraining military personnel about how war actually works.
You know what is better than everyone having radios and being in constant contact that risks jamming or interception by Electronics Warfare units? Go watch a good live improv show, you will see.
Every large war is a forced remembering that the kinds of people who obsess over the aesthetics and planning of war are wasting time forgetting how one actually fights a war when push comes to shove.
The primary thing good improv teachers help you do is understand intimately the necessary power of acting on instinct the instant something disturbs the status quo to retain initiative while also recognizing being able to step back and let the situation organically resolve itself is winning and ultimately your job is to facilitate those conditions.
A playground designed for a nursing home but actually good.
Maybe have a boxing station for bone health, a pool for low impact body movement and a kids playground in the corner to help keep the adults feeling safe and connected to their community by seeing the next generation running around laughing, screaming and having fun.
It isn't how stupid, ignorant or uneducated people in government are, those are all foibles I can accept as part of people being human, it is the violent response to the very concept of a spontaneous joyful curiosity to learn and know new things while letting them be, that I cannot.
Is NOBODY else curious where the shovel came from??
