      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.

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

          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.

          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.

                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.

                        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.

                              Russia hasn't got a death count near the US.
                              The US has lost everything after WW2, and there they played a small role despite the Hollywood fantasy depictions.
                              (I forgot the heroic victory against Grenada)

                                Or the humanitarian missions delivering food or supplies sometimes. Most of the time it's sit around and look threatening enough that trade is protected. That's not really a defense, it's ultimately a tool protecting American capital and propping up a failing system, just saying that most of the expense doesn't go to murdering brown people.

                                  Most of the time it’s sit around and look threatening enough that trade is protected.

                                  What? where would that be?

                                  And in no way that is protecting trade the biggest part of their horrible activities.
                                  Unless it's drug trade like cocaine in the contra scandal or heroin from Afghanistan.
