004 - What does it mean to lose a war?
from Illegitimate Scholar · host Somhairle Gallagher
losses in war are on a spectrum. I discuss a few different wars and what the loss meant for the nation losing the war, then contemplate what this could mean for the future of the United States. The United States has never truly lost a war. In a real (unconditional) war loss, the defeated people are at the will of the victor. Often in history this means pillaging both people and material objects. This was the case for Germany after WWI and WWII, WWI even likely leading to WWII. Factors like this, once set in motion, act like in ways beyond the full understanding of mankind.
