  Pretty sure that when they enlisted, they had something else in mind.
  And it’s not always about the glory of the nation or other crap.

    Did they willingly enlist in the US military during the last 50 or so years?

    Again, fuck them. It’s not as if they had anything noble “in mind”

        Hey, I won’t stop you if you want to take the position that poverty turns the decision to carry water for an empire built on coercion, extraction, and violence into a virtuous one. Knock yourself out.

        steady healthcare

        It seems like the ones who really need the steady healthcare are either not eligible for the military or are the ones being attacked by it

        Why are you pretending that they are poor, or that that is somehow a good excuse?

    They willingly signed up for engaging in colonial subjugation of the rest of the world, including by kidnapping, torturing, and killing non-white foreigners.

    What do you think they had in mind?
