A lot of what he says is doubtless true, but wartime amateur anthropology conforms to certain patterns. Just as the driver who goes too slow is always an idiot and the one who drives too fast is always a maniac, so the enemy is always stupid, shiftless, and lazy, or bloated and exploitative, or robotic and mechanical, or demonically clever and sadistic, or effete and degenerate. Cultural differences exist. What people do about them is another matter.
