I'm glad I wasn't born in the ww1/2 generation.
I'll take economic and ecological collapse over trench warfare any day of the week. I get to type this critique in air conditioning, while those dudes drowned in shell crater cesspools just trying to take a shit.
Not to discount how horrible our future will be. At least compared to what our ancestors went though, we've got it good.
There was very little trench warfare in WW2. Unless you're talking about the trenches for the death camps. Those were some really big wide trenches.
On the bright side they didn't make any boomers.
