The next time you see someone argue that US soldiers occupying a country actually makes its people more secure & improves their lives, show them this video. This is exactly the kind of sadistic & arbitrary destruction they partake in habitually with glee. pic.twitter.com/1Aw3BYWNmR— Louis Allday (@Louis_Allday) August 17, 2021
lets hope the title of the graveyard of empires holds up
saying 'being mean to imperialist soldiers is just gonna turn them away from the left' is the same line of logic as 'being mean to white people is gonna make them openly racist.'
Criticizing the way the troops are used for harm without criticizing the harm they are actively doing is just... it's a fucking lib thing to do. What better way to focus on the abstraction and not the material reality.
