The Flaws of Humanity
George Santayana's quotes deeply connect to volume three, episode one of Love, Death + Robots. The cyclical nature of violence and war is a concept touched on in the Love, Death + Robots episode.

As dicussed in a previous tutorial connecting the Russian and Ukrianian war that has been ongoing the past few months, the episode also depicts the repercussions of war and the influence it may have not just on those actively involved, but also on innocent bystanders.

The wars have resulted in innumerable fatalities, infrastructure devastion and displacement of populations. As it serves as a reminder that conflict has a long-term influence on communitioes and that the innocent suffer the most.

    “In the place that I come from, society was composed of three simple categories: the killers, the victims, and the bystanders.” Powerful, the way this quote is structured is powerful. The wording here sets a powerful image of what was happening and how people knew and they didn’t do anything, and that they are just as guilty as those committing the crimes. “When adults wage war, children perish.” If there is one thing that good people can agree on, it’s the innocence of children.

  • Moral Equivalent Of War Essay

    901 Words  | 4 Pages

    Since the beginning of time, war has been practiced for numerous reasons ultimately to benefit a group of people or nations. But, when war divides the world into two different sides with the capability to destroy faster than we can create, it makes us question, is war really worth it? With the aftermath of World War One, people we’re still divided, but for a different reason, after a war with a catastrophic amount of deaths we had militarists advocating to fight and pacifists demanding peace. The two sources I have used from this essay comes from a European militarist, Friedrich Von Bernhardi with his book “War a Biological Necessity” and United States pacifists, William James, in his book “Moral Equivalent of War”.

    Even though this small quote is three words, this really sums up the main idea of "Wars hurt the innocent" well. I say this because the people of South Africa have never really felt "Away from home" like in the book they said and how they must leave their homes. I think people saying "Away from home" when their country is at war, really shows that wars hurt the innocent. The final quote I found is, "Into the bush. Do you hear me?
