I saw the flags at half mast today and was wondering which right wing propagandist got their shit blown smoove off. I thought maybe they got Ben Shapino this time.

Wait, isn't it armistice day? I mean, I heard it commemorates those who died in WW1, though it does have the risk of sucking off the troops, for the war effort 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veterans_Day 
Are you fucking kidding me?

The original holiday was to celebrate the end of WWI, which (at the time) was thought to be the war to end all wars. But then wars kept happening because it turns out 1918 wasn't the end of history lol.
Yeah they forgot about the rest of the world again when they said history ended after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
Main character syndrome to the max on that one.
You know, "fake ass holiday" would be a great name for a new holiday.
A holiday celebrating all our BBL-endowed sisters (and brothers?)
I gather it's War Criminal Day? Enjoy this article in Maoist Standard English about how the line "the troops are just victims of poverty" is a myth.

You mean archive.ph is blocking you? If so, it's not working for me either even without a VPN or when using a mobile carrier. I don't know if it's the problem with what DNS servers are being used again or even if it may have something to do with this but I'm curious if anyone else can get it to work.
Oh shit :(
I think I downloaded the article. What's a good place I could upload to share it?
I take it the original source is gone now, or otherwise not good to link to? I'm not sure where a good place to upload it to would be, but depending on how long it is, might it be feasible to just copy and paste it as a post here on hexbear? Even if archive.ph/.is/.today is down, you mentioned archive.org in your first comment. That's a completely different (and less useful) site, but the article may have been snapshotted on that one as well.
Yeah the site is defunct. I do have the PDF but Hexbear doesn't have PDF uploads. The URL, in the PDF, is "https://anti-imperialism.org/2016/12/08/legionnaires-defeating-the-soldiertasrieaat-rcmhyth/amp/" but the wayback machine doesn't have it.
Thanks for your efforts to find a way for others to read the article, but it looks like all of this is moot now! I just tried it again and archive.ph is working, along with your original link to the archived article. 
I've always wanted to ask someone in the military if it would make a difference to them if the person shooting at them thought it was morally good to do so or if the person was being paid to do it. "Sorry, I didn't want to deal with LinkedIn, and my government has allowed the economic conditions that made military service seem like my only option to not starve to death in a gutter because it funnels people into the military" doesn't seem as if it would fly if another country used it as a rationale to perpetuate imperialism.
explaining to a dying burger troop that it's nothing personal or ideological, it's just that shooting them pays better than working fast food
Oh it's veterans day i guess that explains why chud #1 at work had his Navy hat on. lol i heard him say he was on a ship for like 2 years, wow what a veteran
you're welcome for your GI Bill education and muscle car. now why do i need to thank them tho?
Salute these shorts you boot.
Sucks being retail today, I took off today specially so I'd miss all the vets melting down upon me that they didn't get their imperialist booby prize and then the manager would be mad no matter what the fuck I did, 'tamagotchi, why didn't you give that nice customer their coupon', 'tamagotchi, why did you give that customer a coupon, they didn't ask for it', 5s later "YOU SEE DEESE PINS SON!!" plz no.
[fedpost] every troop
Bring back armistice day
Every year my work makes a big deal out of confirming in advance which businesses we deliver to are going to be closed today and the only shit that's closed is schools and banks. No one gives a fuck about imperialist dogs.
Also on "Columbus Day" (as if that's a real thing) too. We're not even in an Italian-heavy area
Yeah I celebrate our veterans
spoiler
do you prefer veterans who served in noncombatant roles?
no
What bullshit is this fuck the troops
wild shitlib comment on hexbear is wild after all the defederating.
i prefer veterans who leak evidence of other veterans' crimes. HRT is optional.
Combatant or not, they're still agents of imperialism, subjugation, oppression. I don't give a shit if they held and aimed the guns used to mass murder hundreds of millions of people the world over or did some paperwork to facilitate that mass murder, they're still complicit and deserve hatred and scorn rather than respect and celebration.
what if you get a job as a cook and "accidentally" give all the troops dysentery
There are always hypothetical edge cases, sure. So while we're considering those, I'd look even more favorably on a cook who "accidentally" fed the CO's (and as far on up the chain of command that would eat it) a hefty order of fatal botulism.
