As someone from the US: we all know what the military is up to and most of us would never join it willingly.
I’m not saying anyone who joins is evil but I am saying they’re some combination of evil, naive, desperate, and brainwashed, and definitely not representative of the average us worker.
See the thing this misses, is that our education system is so bad, that the kids signing up for money don’t have any idea that the military is committing genocide. Their school sure didn’t teach it. The recruiter told them theynwould be helping people and protecting americans. And most kids don’t follow the news. That’s a tale as old as time. Many adults don’t either.
So yeah, they are still a victim. The vast majority will never see combat, so they will come out not knowing either.
The blame should be placed squarely on the people who gave the orders first. Then on those in leadership that choose a military career knowing what it does. After that, the amount of blame is more case by case. They are all guilty to some extent, just like manslaughter is still a crime. But if you are focusing on the rank and file before you hold the top accountable, you are just as evil as them.
i’ll say it. anyone who joins in this current era is, in fact, trading humanity for evil. they are choosing evil. they are evil. it’s a binary. you cannot volunteer to join and also be some form of human able to see others as worth something.
