npub14g45waxzm7mljpw770wnkgy3gzrypvc4xx8nysqpm96z4jsuk3nsdtmc2e (npub14g4…mc2e) What did Stalin use to defeat Germany? What did America use to defeat Japan? Nationalism. Stalin did not say fight for Communism or fight for Stalin, but rather fight for Mother Russia.
There is a natural "our side bias" that comes into play when people feel under attack, and any tribe that doesn't have that will soon be extinct.
Tyrants can abuse this to launch aggressive wars, as Hitler did. He told the Germans they were the ones under attack when he was invading Poland.
