      kinder to their veterans

      You certainly have been taught and indoctrinated to love your veterans imperialist mass-murderers.
      Fuck them all.

        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.

          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?

            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.

            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”

                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.

        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.
