I've listened to the TrueAnon podcast and I have mixed feelings about Brace Belden. I feel like if I call him a war tourist I'll get hounded by the same people who call the US troops baby bayonetters. I think war is awful, I think an American seeking it out in a foreign land is not right in the head. I don't think there's any ideology out there worth sacrificing your life or killing for, history is not determined by individual men after all. That's why I don't respect Brace Belden's military service, he got involved with a conflict he had no reason being in, he has blood on his hands. I'm glad he moved on with his life and became a podcaster because the alternative for him would probably be an act of terrorism from what I've heard him say on that podcast. In conclusion fuck the troops, all of y'all are stupid.

    Brace is a communist who knows what left unity is so when he was getting off of heroin and saw bad shit happening to lefty Kurdish groups he thought, "fuck it, I need to do something and this is the best time for me to try, what am I waiting for?" so he emailed some people, got screened, and fought against ISIS. Pretty cool thing to do and they obviously welcomed his contributions and he doesn't make a big thing of it.

    He's also a goofball who cohosts a real pedophile conspiracy podcast and sometimes dabbles in sillier conspiracy theories.

      I don't know if he's a good man or not but once a killer always a killer. I just have a hard time finding a man who has taken a human life cool, they're certainly capable of existing in society but fuck they did something bad and it's something they either face up to or justify it by thinking of the people they killed as lesser.
