    After watching Russian soldiers getting blown to bits by drones for the last 3-4 years, I am good on ever joining the army.

    They recruit those gen-z maga true believers focused on looksmaxxing though. Army uniform looks cool. Makes you Chad.

      took less than that. I understood its the idea of signing a piece of paper saying you will kill who you are told to kill going forward.

            Hmmmm it’s almost like there’s a difference between invading and terrorizing another country vs killing one of the richest most immoral people who have blood in their hands

              Yeah, thats why I asked. There is a big difference between being empathetic to someone fighting against Americas monolithic and broken Healthcare industry vs killing random people in a war America started.

                Killing someone who put profits before humans to the point they doomed thousands to excruciating slow agonizing death is good actually. In the same way that killing fascists is good.

                    They are many things fascist isn’t one of them currently. But if they were to be killed by leftwing/communist revolutionaries I would support it yes (if it was planned out well enough to not aid imperialist forces). Nice gotcha attempt though.

                    Not to mind it’s a ridiculous analogy comparing majorly flawed yet still currently antimperialist leaders to a healthcare CEO (the most predatory kind of private insurance).
