That's the Aleuts.
Team Sasquatch.
Do you ever feel like it's just the most insane way to solve a problem?
I mean, it's just so insane.
Whenever you get like a 30,000-foot view of war, we've all acclimated to the idea of it, obviously, as we should, since it's always been here and may always be with us.
But every now and then, if I come to it fresh again, I'm like, wait a minute.
So these countries have a problem.
And the only way they can figure out how to solve it is to take their 18 year olds and put them against our 18 year olds and see who kills the most.
That's insane.
That's so depressing.
My God, the Aleuts must have been like, really?
Like, no one has ever come here.
We have had this strip of land for thousands of years, and now you're just going to destroy it all.
I wonder if they felt American.
But you wonder if in 1942, like, how much they even knew about the context of it.
Like, was media reaching them?
Were they listening to radios?
Was the paper reaching them?
Or was it, like, this just shocking appearance of modern insanity in their beautiful, frigid world?
Right.
