When was the last time the US military did something good? They should have known better. Signing up to kill people isn't suddenly okay, just because you're desperate.
Except for a lot of people it's never put to them that way. "Join the Navy, See the World." "Learn a career in the Army" "Want to go to college? Serve your country for 4 years and have you tuition paid by the GI Bill."
Should people know better? Definitely, but the sad truth is that a very large number of them didn't know better because it was never put to them the way it was put to you.
And just as many didn't see any other way to climb out of the poverty they were born into.
Those are all mercenary reasons for signing up to be a goverment killer, so they can eat this shit and then a bullet and I won't shed a tear for these imperialist invaders. Dying there is what they signed up for, so they can do that.
You didn't read what I wrote, did you? Or if you did, you ignored it.
No worries, have a good rest of your day.
I did. None of those are reasons to sign up to be a murderer. Skip the middleman and go kill and rob someone straight on the street if you consider greed a sufficient reason to kill people.
How much slack should we give them? The worst a brainwashed MAGA-tard did was vote for it. Whereas they're (most of them voted for it as well) willing to kill and die for it.
Buying into American propaganda doesnt absolve you from responsibility and your own actions, sorry buddy.
Its funny too seeing how quickly Americans bash other corrupt governments and countries but somehow its okay for its own populace to buy into American propaganda. Thats pathetic.
Who said it absolved them? It doesn't. It explains them. And fyi, I'm not American.
It was never put to me at all. I'm just not fucking stupid and/or wilfully ignorant. Either way, being brainwashed doesn't absolve people from all responsibility for their actions.
Yes, yes it was. You just don't remember when. Morality is learned, for good or ill. And as I said to someone else, it doesn't absolve them so much as it explains them.
I don't know man. I think it's pretty self evident that travelling the world, killing people who did you no harm for money is bad and I feel anyone with a functioning brain should be able to come to that conclusion on their own, no matter how they were brought up and what they were taught and if they can't, then that's on them.
