People used to ask β€œWhat if they held a war, and nobody came?” like they thought it was a witty way to talk about ending war.

All wars are like that, now. The combatants stay home and project their consciousnesses onto the war zone.

It’s only those of us who were already here that suffer and die.

The full quote by Berthold Brecht is: "Imagine there was a war and nobody went. Then the war would come to you."

Edit: Grammar.

@tipjip TIL. Thanks for chiming in!
