      Count me out, I've eaten with former US armed forces personnel who performed work on its behalf post-WW2.

      a lot of us had grandfathers who were in wwii and the US managed to do some shady shit even the one time they were the good guys

      and then there's the extremely high chance of warcrimes if it was korea or viet nam, or a younger relative in a more recent war

        True, didn't mean to exempt the people you're talking about. I was thinking more of how this guy hangs around with CIA/Yale type of criminals/ghouls which isn't the same experience as most people.

      If you're American and you've eaten with a relative who served in the armed forces you probably have. I know I have, but it's not something I did cause I wanted to

      I think you underestimate how many Americans have, in fact, dined with a war criminal. My ex’s uncle dropped fucking agent orange on top of who the fuck knows what other atrocities.

      If you’ve ever seen one of those “Vietnam Veteran” hats you’ve walked past a war criminal.
