This is what happens when you don't teach WWII history in society.
maybe if america was kinder to their veterans so they didn't shoot themselves... they'd know more about what war does to people
You certainly have been taught and indoctrinated to love your ~~veterans~~ imperialist mass-murderers.
Fuck them all.
This has all the edge of a teenager who just discovered a local library book on socialism and is on the way to join their local tankie cosplay convention.
You don't win over anyone but clones of yourself with dumb takes like this. We have a system, it has military, many, many people who control our entire society support the idea of having a military.
Yes that military has been used to do bad things. So have many other institutions, arguably causing far worse harm. You want to see better outcomes? Work to reform the system that directs this military and other systems instead of attacking the people themselves. You need the people to affect change, you don't fix anything by hurling a rock at someone's head for existing.
I swear the left has it's share of absolutely delusional chuds who just want to hate.
Edit: do not engage people, there are people who are literally paid to troll like this, adopting the most brain-dead takes and pushing them as representational of leftism. It's deliberate, this user above I blocked is one of the turds that we need to flush. Block, ignore, sentence them to the shadow realm of silence.
The libbest of the libs.
Pretentious and oblivious to their complicity.
If you going to have a hot take it's got to make sense.
The US definitely does not worship their veterans they claim to and act like they do but then they make them homeless.
Bloomcole isn't known for making sense, but is known for posting without thinking. Don't expect much.
He's literally saying they should be kinder to these war criminals.
I'm talking about your dumb population that definitely licks their boots and thanks them for their service.
What the regime does to them when these tools have served their purpose doesn't negate that.
And it's not a 'hot take', unless of course for americans which again proves my point.
They can rot in hell, and you bootlickers with them.
Except I'm not American. There are subtle hints.
Also why are you talking about yourself in the third person. Did you perhaps mean to switch accounts?
Obviously I wasn't talking about you or me but the americunt I replied to which should be clear from "He’s literally saying".
So it's not me writing in the 3rd person.
You must have trouble with reading comprehension.
I know you Brits also love their war criminals that are always eager to join their american looters in terrorizing brown people and you can be butthurt when someone rightfully despises both but that doesn't mean you should make a pathetic and despicable attempt at slandering me when it's obviously totally baseless.
That's very weak asshole, you go fuck yourself too.
Replying with this in a thread about fighting nazis is pretty tone deaf. Nazis never looted and terrorized anybody according to you...?
which nobody said.
WFT are you idiotically trying to do here putting words into my mouth?
WW2 veterans are as good as dead, this guy was talking about the more recent war criminals.
Take your pick from Korea, Vietnam right up to Afghanistan.
No one has to put any words in your mouth to make you an idiot. You do that enough for several people.
They're talking about WWII specifically, the one time we incidently ended up on the right side
Where TF did he talk about "WW2 specifically"?
And not even then.
Despite the same propaganda BS they only entered for their own interest.
If you have time I could explain.
The subject is the guys who fought the nazis and would have "educated" the dipshits openly supporting them.
I am aware the US didn't help the USSR liberate europe out of some moral compulsion, hence "incidentally".
Right, the subject of the post, yes.
But "the guys who fought the nazis " are as good as dead.
I'm sure the commenter didn't mean those when he said veterans.
Those post WW2 can't use the excuse of 'liberating' for their looting and state terrorism.
I regret replying to you in good faith previously, I see now you're a bot or something designed to make progressives look bad. Blocking and moving on.
there is nothing progressive about them
LOL
Well ok
Im not american 👋
That's even worse.
I'm confused why anyone but dumb americans themselves would feel the need to comment in defense their war criminals.
FTFY
