      so, while i agree with you :10000-com: on everything you said, and that it in no way absolves those that choose to murder others on behalf of capital

      it is important to aknowledge the lean that the military industry does on poor communities to propagandize enlistment as being synonymous with opportunity where there otherwise would be none.

      that 17.3% black ratio should tell you exactly how hard a lean it is

      edit: theres a reason the percentage of white kids enlisting in the military is lower than the percentage of america thats white, but the percentage of black kids enlisting has like a 33% boost over the population percentage.

      targeted propaganda in action

        I remember enlisters chilling at a fast food join i worked at especially when the high schoolers were there.
