Literally just this. Its not like enlisting in 2000 where you might've thought you were the good guys or 2002 where you might've thought it was revenge or something or 2010 where you figured 'forever war' was a way to get the hell out of that small town and into college. No.
You signed up to do xenophobia for the guy who gets memed as wh40k emperor by his supporters, probably after the head war guy peeked out of his bottle to shout 'logistics are gay!'.
If you did that, the world is better off without you and your injuries are funny, kill yourself.
Nah they were the bad guys back then too, and the current crop of numbskulls think they're the good guys too. In 20 years time, the current crop of soldiers are gonna sell you the same excuses that the crop of soldiers sold us twenty years ago. No good
soldiers
They were always the bad guys, but as far as a dumbass 17 year old could plausibly believe? There was cover.
I agree with you.
I know a 30 year old who joined the military in response to 9/11. At that time both Democrats and Republicans supported the war efforts. Guy wasn't the brightest, but also wasn't the dumbest.
I know a 30 year old engineer and Mormon that joined the military this year. He joined after the US invaded Venezuela but before we invaded Iran. On a personal level I hope he survives, but realistically I hope his kill count to death ratio is below 1:1. Dudes a fucking idiot, and at best naive as fuck, nice enough guy, but evil for joining the fight for pedophilia.
Sorryabout your idiot, but I hope substantial portions of him never come home.
I mean totally fair. He's not someone I'll be interacting with again, and I certainly won't be sympathizing with his woes.
For most people it’s still about material benefits. The guy in office doesn’t really change that.
What you're willing to do for material benefits does in fact deserve moral judgment. And the head of war called logistics gay.
True. We all have to make our way in the world. Rarely is it the way we’d like.
Anyway, gotta pay rent grabs balaclava, head bag, pliers
I’d wager the vast majority of people in the military are glorified pencil pushers. Not really much of a moral difference between them and the person stocking store shelves with the products of exploitative, unsustainable corporations. Just as there’s no ethical consumption under capitalism, there’s also no ethical form of alienated labor under capitalism.
It's all ignorant teenagers who don't know any better signing up because they believe it can't be that bad. Then they grow up.
