is this helping the imperial machine or can i take this job to get selfies with the rip bozos with a clear conscience?
Just clog up some toilets and start a laundry fire or two and you're good
Do they launder the clothes in the mortuary before they send them back out yet?
I was about to come here and ask.
Imagine you're in charge of a post revolution military tribunal. I come in with a shit eating grin on my face. I go "I loved working with dead boots; do what you gotta do."
Am I walking or is it Joever for me?
here i made a mosaic dickbutt out of pictures of dead troops
Revolutionary military tribunals are probably more geared towards speed than they are at fact finding. What you want to do is plead your case to someone prior to appearing in front of any kind of tribunal. If you fall out of the coconut tree the day of your hearing then you're probably going to wind up on the wall.
yeahhhh that's kinda why I had my probably-lib-seeming "uhhh they all deserved it, right?" comment when people were posting about the Barbara pit massacre
Okay as funny as this is, the actual job is to spin every pointless death as heroically as possible, to help maintain morale on the home front, so yes it's helping the imperial machine. Doing good and honest work would see you immediately thrown under a bus.
I dunno, is it? It'd be doing what the imperialist machine wants at a purpose that it thinks helps it, but personally I'm not sure having a populace with absolutely no clue what's actually happening actually benefits it in the long run
i.e. say you lie about all the deaths being heroic/good/they died getting sucked off/whatever, you convince a new wave of baying hogs to enlist, they all go die too, rinse repeat. it's what the U.S. would want but at the same time I do not think it is benefited long term by simply throwing its population into a meat grinder when there's no chance of that yielding any tangible benefit aside from all the newly ground meat
