  • I’ve had conversations with people who think that Medieval warfare was more honorable and better because of the hand to hand nature of it, and that guns ruined how badass it was.

    It also draws to mind the inventor of the machine gun Hiram Maxim’s idea that the machine gun would be so terrible that people would stop having wars.

    The reality is that war has always been the worst thing that can happen, and most people die of disease and indiscriminate weapons like artillery.

    It seems the strategy of making hell more hellish to stop the hell is a poor one.
