Completely agree. The "winning" side might be politicians or high-ranking army officers. The population? In almost all cases, they are the real losers, regardless of which sides they sympathize with, if any.
- sharkjacobs 5y agoIndeed! And you could say that the real "winners" of this year's Super Bowl were the fans and spectators! Or, more cynically, perhaps the advertisers and other corporate interests who profited from it. That's a reasonable thing to say and not at all willfully ignoring what is meant when someone talks about the winner of a competition between two opposed parties.
