  • There are a lot of good Americans in our armed forces.

    Unfortunately, there are also a lot of trash too.

    So yeah, I think some units might hesitate, while others would laugh gleefully at the chance to kill ‘elitist europeans’ or whoever they can.

    This is basically a video game to them, the only difference is they’re not 2 joints in on their couch in Tennessee.



  • I grew up in the midwest. For a long time I considered myself a conservative, I think I partly still do.

    But I consider myself a McCain conservative, I think Bush I did an incredible job, he helped dismantle the cold war MIC, put eastern Europe back together with basically 0 blood, and the 90s were the golden age for America. Clinton did good too.

    The problem is, in our success, we let the worst plagues of Pandora out of the box.

    After the midwest my family moved to the south, and it was a caricature. Patriotism, Christianity, these weren’t virtues to live by, these were proof that you were superior to everyone else.

    I’m brown, and even though I was born here, it was always clear I was and could never be “A Real American” like them.

    But the way they treated black people was really the worst, they even joked about it to me like I’d find it funny.

    They don’t understand the concept of democracy, it goes against their religion where they are the chosen people and everyone else is evil for denying that.

    It’s a legacy of the confederacy, after the war we kept the slavers out of power for 10 years, then made a deal to let them back in exchange for Van Buren, and they’ve basically recreated their shadow confederacy under the name Jim Crow ever since. Hitler explicitly wrote about how they were the model Germany must follow in Mein Kampf, and the Nuremberg laws are just Jim Crow without the 1-drop rule (Germans weren’t racist enough for that).

    We were able to ignore them as long as we have because they had no voice and their damage was contained in the South, but social media made them a pestilence that can be directed to any target, and they are so impossibly ignorant and proud (and proud of their ignorance) that you don’t need AI algorithms to send them to destroy democracy, they basically follow pro wrestling rules.

    I got my family out and I’m glad, but the rest of the country is basically doomed, nobody is fighting them like they need to be fought, because they can’t see the evil first hand.
