  There’s something icky about discussing killing real people like it was fan fiction of a sci-fi franchise.

    I guess you don't want to read anything by actual military people, then. Dehumanizing the enemy is a requirement for those folks.

      It is also something that must be resisted, because that’s how you get war crimes and genocides.

      That’s not the case. It happens, for sure. I know some hair raising army jokes, but plenty of military people recognise their opponents as people just the same.

  Its not just tech but capability. You can give some random country F35s, that doesn't mean they are useful.
