Imagine trying to explain impressionism to some conscript squaddies.
- worik 6mo agoWhy would conscrtpt squaddies have any more trouble with that, than you? Or me? People everywhere are very smart, curious and want to something other than kill. There are exceptions, but they're exceptions
- ajb 6mo agoIndeed. Conscript squaddies were representative of the population, that's how conscription worked. Except for being all men, of course. It's no more silly to expect them to be interested in art, than to expect schoolchildren to be.
