[The kick is a shock; Levi's words - his anger - more so.
[People pride Armin on his ability to think things through before he acts, but he's as fallible as anyone. That's what he gets for getting a little too comfortable, he supposes.
[On one hand, Levi is right - and the shame there is gigantic. How could Armin belittle the sacrifices of so many in a weak moment of self-pity? On the other hand though, he doesn't...entirely disagree with what he said. It wasn't all for nothing, maybe, but they - the world - lost so very much, and after so much work, so much death, so much pain.
[It was all for something, but something so small in comparison...Still, Armin values the lives of what little of the population they managed to save. Those people matter too. They all have families, and dreams, and fears.
[He can't look Levi in the eye. Some shitty Commander he is. You stupid piece of shit.]

You're right.
I'm sorry.
