At least 153 girls in the first attack.

American soldiers are scum.

[–] SnarkoPolo@lemmy.world 5 points 16 hours ago

The media will hype "the troops" while ignoring the fact that "the troops" are being killed for oil, to make billionaires richer.

First time I open Lemmy and save a post so quickly.

"Don't worry! I'll come back and be venerated as a hero for protecting Western imperialism. And possibly become a "progressive" candidate for Maine, if I get enough nazi tattoos."

America loves thier soldiers until they have to take care of them

[–] bhamlin@lemmy.world 31 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So much this. The same people saying "thank you for your service" are the same people that constantly want to cut veteran services. Sure they care when you're a tool for their goals, but why can't you then just instantly become an invisible member of society once you're done?

Oh, you want more?! Wasn't service enough for you? How dare you be traumatized by killing people and having bombs nearly blow you up! Maybe you should be a man.

But maybe I'm just too sensitive about this...

There's no contradiction here. The US military exists to preserve and extend capitalism. Taking care of veterans would be socialist. Being abandoned by the state, as soon as you no longer serve a purpose for generating profit, is the best way to say thank you. It shows that everything you fought for is successful and working better than ever!

Meanwhile, the suckers and loose...err soldiers get the healthcare and support that they deny the average citizen.

Stop soldiering and they take it away.

they are killing people worldwide because they are imperialistic nazis, not because they are afraid of any consequences related to epstein, because there won't be.

[–] FlyingCircus@lemmy.world 4 points 19 hours ago (5 children)

No consequences from the Epstein-class or their puppet politicians, but there could be consequences from people like you and me if we organize a revolution.

[–] Satoru6@lemmy.zip 1 points 15 hours ago

Just my opinion but I feel this right here is the real reason they are pushing so hard on AI advancement and online identity verification, along with the general dislike for privacy preserving communication tools (which they'll come for next along with the rest of open source technology). Can't build momentum if they know everything you do.

Sure, so let's start organizing now and make that "if" smaller.

Yeah but the ones that die are "suckers and losers".

I despise anyone who becomes a soldier of their own free will. The moment you enlist, you accept that you could be obliged to kill, and that you will have no control over whether that killing will be justified.

In other words, you accept the possibility that you could become a murderer.

[–] tempest@lemmy.ca 87 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's why the US likes to keep a well stocked under class which makes the Army one of the few options to get out of abject poverty.

No you don't understand, they are doing it to get into college! /sarcasm

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 25 points 1 day ago (4 children)

If we had free college tuition and universal healthcare, there would be no one to fight the pedo oligarchs' wars for them.

Which is why republicans and centrist democrats oppose both free tuition and universal healthcare.
