oH that's a beauty BUT in the mindset of those times (war against others / advancing everything using these types of hard-nosed economics) then it totally makes sense and seem to ring true.

Every country, even now, but more obvious and brutal back then was amping and pumping up things using this way...

although I might have the context wrong but 'community' strikes me as also their type of community maybe not so different to my 'freedom' or nice type of ideas BUT importantly you'll have to stomp on everyone else (before they stomp you) AND THEN you can have community inside that onion skin.
So a bad way to do it but we haven't realised how to defeat those warring on us or economically bullying...

Does that sound logical for the times and mindset?

I and others are still looking for a way without fighting those that want to fight / oppress us.
Suggestions welcome this small question :)
