The series doesnt glorify war even a bit it is extremely critical of those whose honor were earned with the lives of those they fought against:the millions of nameless corpses that made Yang and Reinhard Etc who they are in the series. The series isnt about them as much as its about both of them coming to terms with the hidden costs of their success through the ranks. Reinhard is the master of the universe whose center lies outside of himself in Kircheis. 5000https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/642255229160521759/714550991017738320/tumblrnzqnriSWid1u0p4xwo1500.gif Yang narrativizes Reinhard IS the narrative. 5000https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/642255229160521759/714551122928467988/9656af5743c1a4099e5716b72f32524b.png Oberstein was vindicated within the end: the narrator is speaking from a neighborhood within the longer term that has finally recognized the appalling waste of human life that results from oldfashioned military honor married to futuristic fleet technology the purpose being that commanders are so faraway from the realities of the chess pieces theyre ordering around that it both makes it nearly impossible for those embedded within the military hierarchy to try to to anything about it and provides someone like Yang the chance to explode the whole coordinates of the war. 50000https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/642255229160521759/714992248995184700/tumblrinlinep2tuvnEF2C1uzj55m1280.png Theres a reason Yang is more comfortable with computer simulations than the guns war has become completely abstracted from its own reality. it neededa dweeb like Yang to come in and destroy these overblown men at their own game. The scale of conflicted handicaps everyone BUT someone like Yang whose historical perspective lends itself to just the kind of cold analytical manipulation thats neededtho in Yangs case that coldness is balanced by wellread compassion Oberstein really was right about almost everything. 5000https://externalpreview.redd.it/0hNXWdDjybyymwQXdwpTyr2qhmjP0w7ejEkgdHgroA.png?auto=webps=d3ac156308438e9c156b19902319f97fe1ab6786 the word limit rule is really stupidddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd.
