No different form any other organization that prey upon our children
Prey? It's a path into the middle class for many people. Even during the forever wars there was 2/3rds of the force that never deployed.
Be it as it may, it's kinda sad that it is how you say. "Go out and fight against other humans to get yourself out of poverty".
Yeah it's not great but prey seems a bit.... Much.
Idk I don't want my kid anywhere near that shit
Sure. But for most of the military it really is just a normal job after basic. It can have some wild overtime hours but the benefits for someone who never leaves their desk are the exact same as for the guys in combat.
The administrators and the middle managers in the oil companies think they’re not contributing to climate change too, but they are wrong. Think about the comparison.
The personnel clerks are contributing to climate change? Okay, yeah. I don't think that's as big of a shocker as you think it is. Just about everyone I met in the military who believed in climate change had put 2 and 2 together about the military's emissions.
Are you trying to draw an analogy?
I don’t know, am I?
