I mean fuck the troops but how hilarious is it that these mooks are defending Pelosi and her 20 grand ice cream freezers while they eat prison food. ofc dumb ass troops will think they're defending freedom and not being used as a tool to justify a beefing up of the patriot act.
Justify beefing up capital police too. This, of course, ignores that capital police just casually let them into the building to begin with, did absolutely nothing to quell them (and even took pics with them), and fucked off.
Material conditions? The fuck are those, just get back in your shitbox while we vote down a minimum wage increase and scoff at you.
About on par really, places like the mississippi department of corrections feed their inmates food that's crawling with bugs for example.
There was a tik tok of someone asking people in the military what they would tell their recruiter:
“Fuck you, you liar.”
Every answer was a variation of this.
Be poor
Join army to inprove your material condition
Your material conditions in the army:
When the army rations are so bad them fingers start looking real good
. :biden-nibble:
"Moooommm, can we get some troops?"
"I don't know, that's a pretty big responsibility. You'll have to clean them and walk them and remember to feed them."
"We will, we will!"
"You promise?
"YES, please just let us get some troops"
Two months later
Honey why are the troops tearing the walls down. Did you forget to feed them?
It's the number one unofficial reason we're not supposed to pick up weapons off the battlefield.
"hey guys i know we let our ppl die indebted, our infrastructure crumble, and our education standards degrade just to prop up our dying empire, so we can at least make sure our foot soldiers are well fed and well rested right?"
"haha austerity machine go brrr"
Which is hilarious considering MREs, the thing literally invented for troops in the field, really aren't bad at all. You'd think they would just give them that instead but no
They do everything they can to ensure that the troops never have to resort to eating MREs, and then when the MREs get replaced with a new batch you have to take the old ones out and slash them open before throwing them in the dumpster so that they can't be given away or sold off.
I'm ignorant, but did unhappy soldiers ever have a role to play in political history? :thinky-felix:
That’s why I beat the dead horse about not completely giving up on possible comrades in the military. Fuck I made the change, I know others can too.
I did, I guess I felt the military presence was to protect the inauguration, not indefinite. I wonder how living in DC is now. Also lol at the fact that they're really paving the way for the next republican administration to feel extra protected and at imboldened to do some real fashy shit. I'm not surprised, just increasingly jokerfied
"Sir we're received a bomb threat from one Jar Jar Binks"
Ironic considering they complained about trumps border wall and shouted over and over that “walls don’t work” and shit. lol
tfw you establish a permanent green zone in your capital and your reward is this:
After the under-cooked food left more than a dozen soldiers vomiting – and many of them hospitalized – complaints made their way up the chain of command.
AmericanNorth Korean soldiers are getting fed worse than prisoners while defending the Capitol. Whistle-blower reveals images of raw meat, moldy bread, rotten fruit and metal shavings in meals.I can't believe communism would do this
"this is like something that would happen in communist north Korea"
Would not be surprised if that existed already unironically in a twitter comment
800 billion dollar military budget and they cant even do basic catering. And libs/chuds think we would fare well in a war vs Iran, or fucking China
Troops have always been the most cucked of all. Some people give their surplus value so that their employer can get rich, but troops put their lives on the line so that capitalists they'll never even meet can get rich.
The praetorian guard would kill the Roman Emperor if they didnt get enough of a donation/gift from him. Sometimes theyd kill him even with a good donation just so they could get another. National Guardsmen...
