Benjanun SriduangkaewYes, I am bigoted against the US military. Sorry to be controversial. I must speak my truth.
Just kidding you can't be 'bigoted' against the world's biggest terrorist organization.
No I don't care if individual members enlist because they're in poverty. If someone's going to come kill me, I'm not actually going to care about their access to healthcare! Asking people from the global south to give a shit about the poor widdle explwoited soldiers is peak American narcissism.
Another Angry Woman@benjanun_s oh my GOD "but they can't otherwise afford healthcare or education" is such a fucking bootlicker take and it is so so perfectly, classically, north american
@stavvers lol yep. also I dunked on this stupid fucking tweet (she's ex special forces and was in Afghanistan) and got so much grief from the bootlickers
@benjanun_s WHOA that took a turn, what the fuck
Ami Angelwings@stavvers @benjanun_s filed under completely unnecessary own goals
@stavvers @benjanun_s even putting aside what one thinks of being in the US military, there's a complete lack of awareness on any level to turn a political issue into a public confessional about your guilt at committing war crimes??? like it derails the issue completely just b/c she has unresolved issues that need to be discussed with a therapist or a priest, not just thrown onto the internet where it'll deal splash damage to all other trans people who now have to clean up this mess
@ami_angelwings @stavvers in a way, is playing the awful game not similar to murdering brown people for oil?
@stavvers 'but she said sowwy!' fuck me
@benjanun_s I'm gonna guess a lot of the people who think it's okay for poor people to join the military because they're poor are not as forgiving to poor people who shoplift
