“The money will cover 30 days of fighting, then we’ll be sent one war every other month until we cancel our subscription” — Craig Kilborn
The quote is a humorous one by Craig Kilborn, and there are a few ways to interpret it. Here are a few possibilities:
- Satirical take: One possible interpretation is that Craig Kilborn is using satire to comment on the endless nature of war and the way it can be fueled by money and political interests. In this reading, the quote is a jab at the idea that wars are often prolonged or initiated for financial gain, and that the cycle of conflict can be difficult to break.
- Playful exaggeration: Another interpretation is that Craig Kilborn is simply using hyperbole to emphasize the idea that wars can be expensive and time-consuming. In this reading, the quote is a lighthearted way of acknowledging the ongoing nature of military conflicts and the financial burden they place on nations.
- Ironic observation: A third possibility is that Craig Kilborn is making an ironic observation about the way wars are fought and financed. In this reading, the quote is a commentary on the fact that wars are often funded by subscription-based models, where nations pay for access to weapons and military resources on a regular basis. The irony lies in the fact that this approach to funding wars can create a cycle of conflict that is difficult to escape.
