    I don’t think your average troop should get too much hate as I think they should be given a chance at least to be a comrade.

    But fuck all of the operators and SF guys that we don’t even hear about. Just going around and committing war crimes and murdering people.

      If you work special forces, mercenary, bounty hunters, marines, or are a high ranking military officer you can get fucked imo. Wayyy too deep into the imperialist genocide machine

        I always try to say that I’m a vet so other leftists know my sins. But I got out after my first contract was up and haven’t looked back. If anything I regret joining but also know I wouldn’t have the view into the imperialist and colonialist system without it.

          We need comrades like you. You didn't create the conditions that led to your being used as a gun for capital, but you have known directly what that entails. Therefor, you know better one cost of neoliberalism and the depth of the imperative to end it. Thank you for being here.

            So many are just wrapped up in the propaganda and lies they are told by the military industrial and intelligence complexes. The material conditions they offer you for signing your life away are all things we as leftist believe everyone should have as a right, not only if you enlist in the imperialist war machine.

      i talked to a leftist navy vet who claimed he met some seals once while he was in and came away from that with the opinion that they're absolute psychos

        I was a tank gunner, so I was “trained to kill”. But those guys and SF are fucking crazy. Psychopaths that crave killing at some point.
