How much of the Napoleon wars was about just killing european males?


All of the Napoleon wars resulted in nothing happening for the benefit of the French. All that happened is a bunch of french males died so other french males had more choice of women. Why did napoleon even invade russia when russia had nothing of any worth at that time?

Europe has always coveted Russia and attacked it for its land and resources.
Geographically Russia is a pretty amazing place. The biggest country on Earth by far
and one of the least populated.

It is understandable, at least to me, how after having been attacked so often with
such devastating results that Russia is defensive - especially after doing the world
the massive service and spending the lives to save the world from Hitler, then to
see having the US take over world leadership from Britain.

Then the US created and distributed Hollywood propaganda all over the world
vilifying Russia and continually testing it militarily looking for ways to undermine
and destroy it. I grew up in the time of endless American war movies, the time
when the US became the most propagandized population on Earth.

Also one has to remember that to the ancient world order of the elites it was
prime to keep the male population down in order to maintain political order. It
was not stupidity that kept massive numbers of men conscripted into the defense
of the realm and then marched out in from of guns, machine guns, cannons,
poison gas, etc - and then pretending to honor them posthumously.

Most of world history is a horrible scam for most human beings, and deadly to
nature and the stability of the planet.

Most of the historical dark ages in history have more to do with the collapse of
the environment after large civilizations like Rome scaled up too large and fell
apart. We keep allowing the same mistakes to be made.

Jesus Christ, Russian trolls even use this forum now? Or are you just a well-groomed propaganda victim?

Russia HAD to "save the world" from Hitler because they were attacked. Before that they were happy to carve up Poland, and they would've been equally happy to stand by as Germany and the rest of Europe fought each other.

But they conveniently leave that out in the shitty speeches and parades they put up to dumb you down so that you can get wasted in another war while Putin and his oligarchs buy boats and houses, outside of Russia.

Why would they put your online goofball fairy tales in speeches and parades?

reply

They won't they just put shit in. Like the myths about your honorable past and how good your military equipment is. Now you're even indoctrinating kids in how to disassemble rifles and how great it is to waste your life for the Kremlin mob.

Napoleon was seeking glory for France and glory for himself. Apparently his troops were very loyal and committed, even though the evolving technology of warfare was making killing each other much more efficient against the outdated tactics and formations still employed by armies of the day.

Aren't all wars about 'males'? Or were you trying to make a point?

This smells like an attempt to support some conspiracy narrative, probably about a secret cabal behind international policies...
