Repost from Vinnie Sullivan
In 1936, not too long after the horrors of WW1, and a mere three years before WW2, Clarence Daniel Batchelor created a cartoon named "War."
It depicts a skull-faced prostitute luring a young man with the words, "Come on in, I'll treat you right. I used to know your daddy."
It's quite clear that the words “Any European Youth” written on the young man's back are an indicator of the unnecessary tragedy brought about by human conflict.
It isn't that we, as civilians, haven't learnt our lesson. But those in "charge" know exactly what they're doing. ⏳️
