>Last words of Ukrainian soldier: That's it, mom, good bye. Wait, let me die in peace. You've opened everything (meaning all critical arteries) in me. Let me catch my breath. Very painful. unclear. Let me pass away in peace. Just don't touch me. Let me die. Don't touch me, let me die. Please go away. I want to pass away at my own. Thank you. Your were a best fighter in the world. Good bye. You were better.>Russian soldier: good bye, brother(?).>Ukrainian soldier: good bye. Don't do it.
>>18109910>You're a hero for dying over map painting autism. War is a shameful and evil thing. These genetically identical slavs don't even WANT to kill each other. Satan rules the world.
>>18109910You can volunteer to fight in Ukraine right now little bro :)
>>18109916 The fundamental principle underlying all justifications of war, from the point of view of human personality, is ‘heroism’. War, it is said, offers man the opportunity to awaken the hero who sleeps within him. War breaks the routine of comfortable life; by means of its severe ordeals, it offers a transfiguring knowledge of life, life according to death. The moment the individual succeeds in living as a hero, even if it is the final moment of his earthly life, weighs infinitely more on the scale of values than a protracted existence spent consuming monotonously among the trivialities of cities. From a spiritual point of view, these possibilities make up for the negative and destructive tendencies of war, which are one-sidedly and tendentiously highlighted by pacifist materialism. War makes one realize the relativity of human life and therefore also the law of a ‘more-than-life’, and thus war has always an anti-materialist value, a spiritual value.Julius Evola, Metaphysics of War

Leonidas and his Spartans/Greeks were heroes because in dying in battle, their deaths ACHIEVED something. This is a CRITICAL distinction. Dying, having achieved nothing, is losing the game in the most literal sense.
>>18109924I suppose, because you cannot KNOW for certain what will happen after you die, soldiers convince themselves no matter what happens, their deaths were not in vain. Despite the fact that probably the majority of all soldiers who ever died, died in vain. Gustavus Adolphus was a hero in the sense that his life choices both lead to his death but also changed world history. Even the soldiers that died under him contributed. Whereas the Catholic side can't really be said to have gained anything, considering the Catholic goal was to literally annihilate all Protestants. Now, if you're arguing that simply "dying with integrity" is heroic, then that is subjective. Certainly it's better to die with integrity than not.
>>18109910>implying people haven't been saying war is le bad is fucking AquinasThe Reddit brigades are still recruiting if the idea of being smeared across the side of a Ukrainian field gives you such a boner.
