I feel like “when Johnny comes marching home” is the most ironic and paradoxical of the songs. By completing their mission and dropping the bomb they are effectively erasing their chance of going home, as after MAD there will be no home to go back to. But the only way they’re going back is after they drop the bomb.

Something interesting I just saw in another video that relates to the merger of sex and warfare. Valkyries in Old Norse myth may have been a way to explain men's desire for war and fighting by comparing it to a sexual lust. Heroes of the sagas were often pursuing Valkyries as the object a conquest. Usually the hero becomes infatuated with a Valkyrie who then tells him that she has been promised by her father to another man (usually a king) and the hero must fight and kill said king to win the Valkyrie (along with the kingdom of the hero's rival.) So, I guess what I'm saying is, people have been conflating sex and violence for a long long time.

@holdenfatheree5884 5 жыл бұрын
Dr. Strangelove as a character is a reference to former Nazi scientists brought to the U.S. in Operation Paperclip following World War II. After WWII, the U.S. wanting to get a technological edge on the Soviet Union, located German scientists who had worked for the Nazis and brought them to the U.S. to work for different government research agencies, including NASA. The research these scientists were conducting during the war was in areas that the U.S. had not engaged in so that's why they were chosen. The military engaged in a lot of whitewashing and tried to cover up the connections of many of these scientists to the Nazi party. For example, Wernher von Braun, one of the leading rocket scientists in the space race, was a member of the Nazi party and actually selected people from concentration camps to work in V2 rocket factories. Dr. Strangelove is the president's scientific advisor and obviously a Nazi. He tries to resist saying mein fuhrer because that's what he is used to calling his leader. His hand tries to do the Nazi salute but he is fighting with his own body to not do it because naturally a Nazi can't be openly serving in the U.S. government... well at least in the 1960s.
