Hot take: If we think housing, healthcare and a guaranteed dignified standard of living are human rights then they also apply to veterans of imperialism.

For me that first of all depends on their stance towards the revolution. If you actualy join the correct side and fight alongside us, and I mean real fight not just social posturing like e.g German Nazis that survived the war and then spent their life going on apology tours or something.

Then yeah, we need all the help we can get and if they're willing to put a bullet on a billionaire/capitalist head I will give them a second chance. We need actual people that are willing and capable of fighting whether we like this reality or not.

But as I said my standard is anything less than literally to join the revolutionary army like today and its not worth bothering with them.
