I guess it might create a loop if I add all the media I listed so far. Things Fall Apart is about African colonialism, and so is Heart of Darkness.

The Things They Carried actually has a quote about dismantling the lie of war, it describes how it is not pleasant, or glorious, or empowering, but obscene.

"If at any point hearing a war story, you feel uplifted or feel some sort of rectitude can be salvaged, then you've been made the victim of a very old and terrible lie."
