I’m glad the article discusses the irony of a pacifist writer producing a well thought out war game. It sounds like a duality of modern culture: we know war is terrible and destructive, but we also fetishize it.
Not sure that’s irony. While he was a pacifist, he also served in the armed forces in WWII and survived the firebombing of Dresden as a pow. Kurt wrote about what he knew.
That sounds really cool.
