Aren't we going to need military people in the future revolution? Like during the Russian Revolution the socialists used military support, including dissatisfaction with their missions abroad and in wars, in order to help secure power.
I feel like cops will be a bigger enemy than the soldiers if it comes down to a civil war, but maybe I'm wrong.
Then phrase the question something like: "If you have been a police officer or in the armed forces, what are your views on your time there?"
If you are defending having been a cop or in the military, at least when it comes to the US or its vassals, that's problematic.
Good point. 100%
