Yeah it’s kind of hard to figure out because there are so many things that aren’t major wars we learn all about. When I thought about this before, even if you just count the big ones, the US hasn’t been at peace for more than 20 years at a time. We’ve been at war for over 80% of my life. It’s crazy how normal it feels despite that. We are super sheltered from the consequences of all of this.
