We are about to witness an imperial humiliation leaving several generations of soldiers wondering what that was for with Afghanistan. You are suggesting we ignore those people when we have the answers. The left needs people who can fight. Ignoring them will just leave them in the hands of fascists. I don't expect forgiveness from every victim of US imperialism, but this take is bad.
i really try to stay out of this particular struggle sesh but i never understood why we should just toss everyone with combat experience in the trash when any potential (yes unlikely) revolution will probably involve some combat. i agree that if we let the fash have all the questioning and disaffected vets it just gives the reactionaries more power if shit collapses
