I’m just trying to have people understand that it’s more complicated than “I want to kill people” and “they know what they signed up for.”
To also understand that there can be comrades who come from the military, and not just right them off because of their past. If I was able to self criticize and change to the point of joining an actual communist party, then others can too. And we need troops on the left. They have seen the machinery of imperialism and are some of the best tools to help dismantle the machine. And hopefully prevent as many as we can from moving to the hard right.
