I feel as if Lemmings can be very politically polarizing. Definitely less so now than a few years ago, but I still see it from time to time. How does that effect the macro-community's general perception of the military? I looked and only found one community on any instance, and it was fairly small and inactive.

To be honest, my perception of the American military is that it's a bit of a wet noodle. I wouldn't say they've exactly demonstrated strength in their recent adventures

The difference between tiny countries like mine my and the russian and american military is that they can afford to be incompetent. We can't.
