Still, at some point you have to pick a side, and if America invades my country or starts CIA ops in the coming future I'm not going to give two shits about what propoganda they were under or how they couldn't get a job and want free college. I'm going to want them the fuck out.
I'm sorry but thinking you're going to get the military on your side is incredibly idealistic. Look at how well that worked with cops or the DHS. This is because, contrary to popular belief in leftist circles, the majority of the military are essentially upper class people volunteering their service out of love for the empire. Chuds essentially. I know this is a bit out of date and from the heritage Foundation, but it's a good read none the less.
Ok how about a source from 2018 from the Undersecretary of defense, I sorry for using the heritage Foundation as a source.

Look at the share of recruits by neighborhood income level graph, the rich are almost absent but the upper middle class and middle class are overrepresented, with those earning less than 40k a year slightly underrepresented.
Yeah after closer inspection the heritage Foundation document is pure trash. While the neighborhood analysis is flawed, when combined with other data it paints a picture. Military recruits are more likely to come from the southern states, more likely to have grown up in wealthier neighborhoods, and no more racially diverse than the general population. They aren't exactly ripe for communist radicalisation. That doesn't mean Americans shouldn't try, they should absolutely try to radicalise the troops and get them on their side. But at the same time Americans should not be surprised if the troops turned on them in the same way the police and DHS have, and definitely should have other plans than just radicalising the troops.
