I’m totally with you in spirit. It’s irresponsible to create terrible weapons. Rule of thumb: never create a weapon you won’t want turned against you. (I don’t want ANY weapon turned against me, ergo…)
The recent interview with the cofounder of Palantier provided a more nuanced view though. The military of your country exists to defend you and your way of life against those who wish to attack and destroy it. Why wouldn’t you help?
The breakdown comes when the citizens look at what their military is doing and it doesn’t seem to connect to defending them and their way of life.
Ukrainian citizens I’m sure have zero qualms about supporting their military because they’re in a fight for the very existence of their country and their way of life.
