    The actual line is what got me to start trying to cut through McCarthy's honestly reader-hostile formatting to actually read his novels; Judge Holden is such a cold motherfucker as far as villains go, and I can 100% believe that the way Amerikans see the myth of the 'white grizzled cowboy' is really just a facade to cover up a whole unholy horde of Judge Holdens

      That's no joke. I know some mfs in the US military. You should hear how they speak of muslims etc. Yeah if one weren't mistaken youd think.....

        Oh, I have. My time in service is exactly why I'm as hardline as I am for my people. I know what these crackers say about anyone they want to kill; past, present, and future. I was groomed to sell my soul to the Great Satan at 16, and I'll spend my entire life atoning for it.

            Thankfully, it never fully took. I was a "dirtbag" who tried to keep whatever broken pieces of myself that I could, rather than let Satan mold me into an unthinking killer. There was shit to shuck off and strip away, sure; but I wasn't some dead-eyed, soul-scooped jarhead by the time I made it out.

              I have a buddy who went into the military and managed to make no friends and absorb nothing while playing monster hunter the entire time, he has my respect
