The series description sounds like ''Series/Bagpuss''. Did Oliver Postgate and the BBC check with their lawyers?

\'\'\"Calling this War Is Hell severely dilutes both the \"war\" and the \"hell\" part of the trope.\"\'\'

Please explain.

\'\'\"I think you\'re trying too hard to push this as grimdark and it honestly makes the work look worse than it is.\"\'\'

I don\'t understand how you can get much worse than planetary scale societal collapse.

\'\'\"Plus, a huge thing is that, while conflict isn\'t fun, it\'s clearly waaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than the alternative in this setting. A huge part of the trope is emphasizing the pointlessness of war. But here, the characters are clearly better off fighting than not.\"\'\'

That would be HopelessWar, which is a completely different trope. The reasons they are fighting in the first place and the condition of the world they are in is also more than enough to add AfterTheEnd.
