maybe if america was kinder to their veterans so they didn't shoot themselves... they'd know more about what war does to people
If you going to have a hot take it's got to make sense.
The US definitely does not worship their veterans they claim to and act like they do but then they make them homeless.
Bloomcole isn't known for making sense, but is known for posting without thinking. Don't expect much.
Thanks for the heads up, I've blocked em
I regret replying to you in good faith previously, I see now you're a bot or something designed to make progressives look bad. Blocking and moving on.
Except I'm not American. There are subtle hints.
Also why are you talking about yourself in the third person. Did you perhaps mean to switch accounts?
Replying with this in a thread about fighting nazis is pretty tone deaf. Nazis never looted and terrorized anybody according to you...?
No one has to put any words in your mouth to make you an idiot. You do that enough for several people.
They're talking about WWII specifically, the one time we incidently ended up on the right side
The subject is the guys who fought the nazis and would have "educated" the dipshits openly supporting them.
I am aware the US didn't help the USSR liberate europe out of some moral compulsion, hence "incidentally".
This has all the edge of a teenager who just discovered a local library book on socialism and is on the way to join their local tankie cosplay convention.
You don't win over anyone but clones of yourself with dumb takes like this. We have a system, it has military, many, many people who control our entire society support the idea of having a military.
Yes that military has been used to do bad things. So have many other institutions, arguably causing far worse harm. You want to see better outcomes? Work to reform the system that directs this military and other systems instead of attacking the people themselves. You need the people to affect change, you don't fix anything by hurling a rock at someone's head for existing.
I swear the left has it's share of absolutely delusional chuds who just want to hate.
Edit: do not engage people, there are people who are literally paid to troll like this, adopting the most brain-dead takes and pushing them as representational of leftism. It's deliberate, this user above I blocked is one of the turds that we need to flush. Block, ignore, sentence them to the shadow realm of silence.
Well ok
Im not american 👋
FTFY
