I mean, when you literally sign up to be cannon fodder, I don’t know what you expect. America has always treated troops and veterans like livestock. You could simply choose a career other than oppressing the third world for oil profits.
Legitimately, I’d like to say I was just making some principled stand, but when I was 18, “the food is famously terrible” was a bigger part of me not joining the military than I’d like to admit 😂
Oh, no, the volunteer soldiers who are willingly taking orders from pedophiles and Nazis aren’t feeling COMFY and eating gourmet food???
Fuck’em. This is better than they deserve.;
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”
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?
Ever had a meal with a group of US military guys? They’re done in like 3 minutes. It’s wild
Oh no the people who volunteered to be murderers aren’t getting good food :(
Every US male who turns 18 “volunteers” to be eligible to “volunteer” to die overseas for the Epstein class.
Has there been a draft yet, or what do you mean?
This is the exact same stuff they fed us when I was in Iraq 20 year ago. They gave the contract to the lowest bidder who bought the cheapest food possible then pocketed the “leftover” cash. This isn’t new. The difference between then and new is our families could send us care packages and we didn’t have cell phones to post about the mystery meat. I don’t want anyone to eat like this but I also don’t know why everyone is surprised by wartime food. Food SUCKS when you deploy, it’s why they give troops the big send off steak and lobster dinner. Best way to avoid giving giving our troops trash food is to NOT DEPLOY THEM.
All food should suck for the soldiers of your empire.
I also don’t know why everyone is surprised by wartime food.
That’s why awareness needs to be constant. It’s why coke spends a billion a year on advertising despite “everyone knows what coca cola is”.
Back in the day they had ice cream ships… SHIPs… For ice cream…
How the mighty have fallen
Prison slop.
One can never get too much Asterix.
Lots of people arguing about this in the comments, but I’m glad there’s so many people defending the position that it’s ok to do bad things if you’re poor, because that’s exactly my position. I wasn’t in the military, though, no.
I was the guy that trafficked kids to Epstein’s Island.
I don’t talk about it a lot because most of the time people judge me pretty harshly for it. You wouldn’t believe how many dates have walked out on me the moment I drop what I used to do for a living. I mean, look, I’m not a pedophile myself. Most of the guys I was working for were just desperate and in if for the money. I don’t support what the guys in Washington decided to pay me for. Blame them, not me.
What was I supposed to do, work in a warehouse or a grocery store or something? What am I, some kind of chump? Fuck that. With the money I made duct taping children’s mouths shut and throwing them into my trunk, I managed to earn enough money to put myself through college, and finally persue my real passion.
That’s right. Now I’m finally able to persue a dual major in Moral Philosophy and Women’s Studies. Also, funny coincidence, I’m a TA and I’m actually teaching one of the girls I met in my previous line of work about feminism. What a funny little coincidence!
Thank you for your service
The latest Chinese propaganda has been posting pictures of their aircraft carrier meals.
Yum! Then sign me up for the “Chinese propaganda aircraft carrier” mission 😋
Operation Dim Sum vs The Orange Chicken
Mildly infuriating? The coward butchers in the us military deserve every humiliation and degradation they can get.
While I get what you’re meaning, I am going to ask a question: do you treat criminals the same?
The way you see military, many of whom are from low income without many means of survival, as monsters because they join a government system that promises social services that harms so many. So a means to an end.
A criminal will steal or murder for similar reasons a person joins the military - except instead of social services, they’re taking what they need to survive. So do you think they deserve humiliation and degradation? Heck, prison food is similar.
Both are forced into making morally wrong choices that affect others outside of themselves but instead of anger at the system that creates these situations, you insult the people. It’s reactionary.
This from someone who knows multiple leftists who changed because of the military. So I see belittling them online as counterproductive to any type of coalition being made as it separates them from others who may hold similar if not the same beliefs.
do you treat criminals the same?
“Criminal” is a mich more wide group of people in the relevant sense. It includes people who are deemed such simply because of being of a “wrong race”, to people who do sabotage against the genocidal machine, to people who, indeed do some of the stuff that soldiers are very guilty of (strangely, you don’t seem to say that we should be ecstatic about people like Epstein and Maxwell).
A much better question would be “do you treat cops the same?”, but the military is still much worse.
The way you see military, many of whom are from low income without many means of survival,
Poverty draft is a myth. The USian military is mostly from well-off backgrounds.
Furthermore, if you can sign up for kidnapping and torture of foreigners for oil, you can find a different job.
A criminal will steal or murder for similar reasons a person joins the military
So, you think that we shouldn’t speak ill of the likes of Epalstein and Maxwell, on the grounds that they were simply doing what the military does?
But yeah, if one intends to do kidnapping, torture, and murder for money, they can at least keep it to the Imperial Core instead of to foreigners.
So do you think they deserve humiliation and degradation?
These people that sign up to contribute to the most awful things that can be done deserve significantly worse.
Both are forced into making morally wrong choices
People who sign up for the USian military are not forced to do that.
but instead of anger at the system that creates these situations, you insult the people. It’s reactionary.
Do you think that insulting cops and ICE thugs is reactionary? Do consider that they do much less evil than the military.
So I see belittling them online as counterproductive to any type of coalition
If they are actually dependant, they understand why their former colleagues get such ire and would die with the victims and against said colleagues.
Meanwhile, TACO is gnawing a ruined, expensive tomahawk steak, well done with ketchup.
These are mostly on ship. They’re at that stage relying on whatever is left in the large fridges, having to ration their stock. Which can only mean they’re not being resupplied, especially at such a prolonged operation that the shit leadership bragged they’ll finish Iran in a week.
Good. I hope they starve. Fuck them.
Why?
They’re bombing my home country. People don’t generally root for the people who are murdering little girls where they come from.
Because they’re imperialist killers for hire?
Good fuck em. Why would you ever join the military? I don’t care if you’re stupid and poor, I’m stupid and poor, I’d never join that dumb shithead factory
That’s your opinion, there is a lot of benefit to joining
Like killing brown kids and upholding an imperial empire run by pedophiles?
Like what?
And before you say free ride through college, let me head that off - it’s not free if it comes at the cost of human life being churned through the endless war machine.
Looks like prison food lol
The US military industrial complex is a prison. People sign up for it for social service benefits that first world countries get given to them as a human right.
I was gonna say, if your other options are poverty / prison, this isn’t actually a bad deal practically speaking. Not gonna get into the ethics of military service other than to say blaming individuals for trying to escape poverty isn’t the answer. When I teach about chronic institutionalization in a psychiatric context, the military is one of the susceptible demographics alongside prison and long term hospitalization.
Now do modern prison and public school food for comparison.
If o can only fix one I’m going with the school food.
Honestly, the pics I’ve seen of school food were worse.
Nah, my kids’ district has really good food. But we also have high property taxes that pay for it.
The company that ran my alma mater’s cafeteria also served kitchens. The food plan my college had selected was the one below what they serve in prison…
This looks on par or worse than school lunch when i was in grade school. Looks like less too, somehow.
Only the best for the supercops! ACAB
An army recruiter came to my extremely poor elementary school, and could basically say anything to us kids. Told us that if we joined the army you can get whatever food you want, at all, from the mess hall and a chef will cook it for you. And yes, being able to get food was a motivating factor for some of us.
I asked if you could get eggs Benedict every day if you asked for it. He looked a little nonplused, then said “oh yeah sure! Every day!”
I knew at that point he was full of it and told him so.
Good for you.
The rich school near me had the same thing. Navy medic came in to describe how amazing the navy treats you. Definitely not a recruiter, though. Made very clear up front that he wasn’t there recruiting. Wink wink, nudge nudge.
Army receiuter in elementary school? Wtf? Just when you think lemmy already showed you what it’s like over there… Putain
What do you think that story is about in the first place? It’s based on a true story, just painted over to seem like fiction.
I will say, that experience varies wildly by branch, and even chow hall to chow hall within a branch. I was in the Marines, and the “new” chow hall on Pendleton mainside (they opened it about a year after I got there, but that was 15 years ago now) was really pretty good. Solid breakfast burrito line, an omelet station where you could get real eggs, etc. Lunch and dinner had a few options, and a panini bar.
The chow hall we had before that one opened was a dump.
But then, I went TDY to an Air Force base. And let me tell you, that was better than most restaurants I’ve been to.
If the Air Force had to eat at marine corps chow halls until they could pass a DoD audit, they would pass on a month.
I knew this post was going to end on an Air Force story when I read “varies wildly by branch”.
told him so.
How did he respond?
He didn’t like his ruse exposed but tried to play it off and change the subject. The teacher was amused though
If that don’t wanna make you die for your country, nothing will.
Well deserved.
Why would this be deserved for service men and women?
Oh, sorry, because they signed up to murder people on behalf of the most destructive empire in human history; I thought that was clear. Don’t even try to pull the, “they’re all poor people who had no other choice 😫” shit either, we know that it is mostly middle-class people who fucking choose to be this evil: apps.armywarcollege.edu/…/Demographics of the U.S…
If you choose to support the US military, you have sided against all life on this planet. That is not fucking hyperbolic, that is a fact. This fucking post is about the consequences of its most recent genocide campaign in service of the fossil fuel industry, a primary cause of climate change that could potentiall kill billions of people and only persists through US imperialism. Go fuck yourself.
pro tip: stop fucking joining this shitshow.
For many, joining the US military is the only way out of poverty, a path to citizenship, or a way to a higher education. Some others just are victims of propaganda, or just genuinely sadistic, but unfortunately most of the people joining the military are victims of a failed education and social security system designed to bring more troops into the meat grinder.
Would it be okay, then, for me to rob, torture, and kill your family if it was the only way for me to get higher education (i.e. something that is not necessary to live)?
What about the families these monsters kill that won’t be able to receive higher education on account of being dead or kidnapped?
Joining the US military means killing Iranian schoolgirls. Is “wanting to escape poverty” a valid excuse to murder children?
would you say the same for ICE? they also recruit from poor migrant communities because they’re most desperate and the pay and perks are good - would you say they’re justified in joining and terrorising the ones that didn’t?
and while I 100% agree that propaganda and the system failing them is the main reason driving that - we don’t counter the propaganda by normalising the poor-to-terrorist pipeline as “well the system sucks but you gotta do what you gotta do” - there are red lines and if we could collectively resist them - we starve the system from being able to force people into the meat grinder
only way to pay for colleges for many people, otherwise nobody would join at all, thats how they can get cannon fodder, although most choose non-combat roles.
You think I care that the only way for them to go to college is to go and murder people in the country I’m from. Fuck them and fuck anyone who makes excuses for the American empire.
They have the option of just not going to college.
Or do you think I should be rewarded with more university by kidnapping, torturing, and killing your family?
i couldn’t afford college. Didn’t join. Ended up a software engineer. 🤷♀️
This is uplifting not infuriating.
Why?
Child killers not getting 5star meals?
Hilarious, good for them
If the US ever tried to invade Canada, we could probably convince the soldiers to change sides with something as shitty as Tim Horton’s.
I find it crazy as hell that poutine isn’t super common down here. Fries with cheese and gravy? That should be our national dish.
That sounds like the sort of food I’d make while black out drunk. Or is some North American thing where the words cottage cheese and gravy mean something different.
Diners have disco fries or loaded fries. Fills the same niche.
We have it in some of our northern states and we are not impressed. You can do better than that.
I know we can. I’m saying our trash is better than your military’s trash.
Sucks to suck, don’t join the fascist army.
I was just wondering why this is mildly infuriating. I find it mildly hilarious. Dumb fucks joined up after the US went full mask off.
Get what ya get and don’t throw a fit.
Students need to get money somehow, with AI taking their jobs.
Devastation caused by US service men and women:
As a former enlisted who thankfully got medical’d out of the service very early, the ONLY thing I find mildly infuriating 8s that it looks like my old school lunches.
Why do they deserve to get better food than our children?
Anyone still in can kiss my ass. Most enlisted joined within the last 10 years where it’s been a ShitShow since Trump1.0. I joined when I thought Obama was going to be different, but am glad I got out not long after it became clear how much he loves drone strikes. I would have just gone awol when trump showed up.
Modern military deserves the food we give to homeless people. Once we improve the lives of those who have it worst, we can think about getting them better food.
