    American troops that don’t feel shame, but instead feel pride for what they’ve participated in, are worth less than nothing to any movement. They are fascists, whether they admit it or not, and should be considered potentially dangerous to those around them. They don’t even consider the humanity of people outside of the first world, that attitude can quickly be turned onto their own communities in the wrong circumstances.

        American imperial “leftists” be like: “It’s wrong that the capitalist system steals from us the value of the labor we rightfully stole from our genetic inferiors at home and abroad!”

        Them and cops refuse to admit any wrongdoing. That their ideology or moral system were wrong. That jobs created by these system might not be needed. That they fucked up personally in anyway. The most radical you’ll get are reformists who are mostly mad that these jobs/systems sometimes harm the people they hire and that’s about it. It’s really pathetic. Almost every other job people will be willing to denigrate, critique, quit, admit suck ass, etc. Maybe the people who aren’t morally-slow already know not to take these jobs in the first place.

      It’s funny cause all the military guys I know, whether they regret it or not, only joined for the benefits. Doesn’t make it defensible per say, but the idea that some people are actually patriotic about it is bizarre.
