    Let's take a quick overview of the twists and turns of the troop apologia pretzel:

    • Morality isn't real
    • Going after the troops makes you the real troop
    • What if the troops were trans, though?
    • What about 1917 Russia, which is basically the same as 2023 USA?
    • Did you know that troops can suffer too?

    Did I miss anything?

    Reminds me of when Stalin joked about killing all the Nazi troops and Churchill got incredibly, incredibly mad.

    Blaming everyone and everything other than themselves and refusing to face any consequences for their actions. I didn't know I was in postwar Germany.

      You forgot the most classic ones

      • just following orders
      • they were conscripted
      • they didn't know that [insert country's military] doesn't actually protect people

      the 2nd one doesn't apply to amerikkka, which makes it worse since it means basically everyone volunteers for that shit.
