Isn’t it though? When AI is used against the people and fake media is used to cover up war crimes, what’s not to stop there? When your feeds have been polluted with outside foreign influencers that you explode from within, what’s not to stop there? It’s war alright. Just not the kind of war Spielberg thinks would make a great film.

Have you seen pictures of Gaza? Scenes like this haven't been seen since WW2, maybe the Korean War or the Cambodia campaign.

Haven't been seen since WW2 or the 1970s? Are you just ignoring Sudan right now, or a million other armed conflicts?

I’m aware there’s a genocide in sudan but i’m not aware of entire cities being leveled in this fashion. there have been other conflicts where more people have died, but rarely is there a conflict where the entire world government apparatus appears to stand against 2 million people mostly women and children in contradiction to the democratic will of almost the entire world

it takes a lot of money and firepower to do what they’ve done to gaza. it is an affectation of enormous wealth and callousness against a nearly defenseless population

i will say though that sri lankans said that some of these tactics were pioneered against the tamil tigers in more recent history
