I mean, there are plenty of boring desk jobs in the military too.

Someone was just telling me yesterday about how so many ROTC students get promised tuition paid for, only to find out later for some stupid reason they were disqualified. They made it seem like it's a very common thing.

It would be better if they would kill the people making college tuition hard to get instead of killing people so their oppressors could gain even more power.

I don't know if it's still like this, but the national guard being called up currently, are probably paying out of their own pocket to be there. These local call-ups aren't usually paid that well.

*You would?

(sorry)

Wait, a military recruiter was a slimy lying bastard? Couldn't be!

Was Adolf eichmann a murderer? He never pulled a trigger.

Okay, but, and hear me out; what if i just actively pursued the most abhorrent results and went full 'cruelty squad' here?

The 'I joined bcs I needed an education' was the first excuse.
This is the follow up.
They have to rationalise it to themselves.
As if there's any reason to justify joining the worst and most prolific killing machine on the planet.

Yep, you can sit behind your screen and click on the wedding where the drone should strike.

That would take effort and risk.
Bombing brown people from a distance is much easier.

To be fair it's not the worst killing machine. Its nit like top 50% and itvus the most expensive, but it usually gets a pretty good amount of killing done.

Or

You will!

What are you talking about?
No country even comes close.

For pure numbers killed, i think russia wins. For efficiency per body dropped... When was the last time the Americans fully, like, won a war? Because it wasnt in my or my parents' lifetime.

And they got their asses handed to them pretty badly by guys who didnt all have shoes a couple times since their last win.

I mean, it's not like we see our intellectual best come from the military. Most of them become fucking pigs and abusers.
