I grew up in poverty and I didn't sell my soul for 70k in order to fight a war for genocidal white supremacists and pedophiles.

Maybe the career military personnel can be forgiven, maybe some of them think they morally have to be there in order to represent the few responsible adults of this nation and minimize harm, but for the most part they have all been given a gun and told to go shoot some brown people and said "ok, let's go".
