Army raises enlistment age to 42, removes waiver for marijuana possession - Lemmy.World

I’m 40. I haven’t found full time work in a year. I might have to join. I don’t want to lose my house. Nobody will miss me if I die overseas.
yes, come murder us in the global south so you don’t have to deal with your own government.
I don’t want to hurt anyone. I’m hungry and I may be homeless soon. What’s the point of being moral if nobody will help me when I’m at rock bottom?
that’s no excuse to hurt innocents.
People die on the streets I America. It’s a brutal death and your mental health deteriorates fast. Our country is cruel. If you don’t understand that you come from privilege
SHUT THE FUCK UP about privilege when you’re literally trying to justify slaughtering people in much, much poorer countries. Orders of magnitude more people in the countries America targets experience a life far worse than the worst life in America, because of America. You don’t get to kill other people to feed yourself. Jesus fucking Christ.
I’m telling you the reasons people join. These are the facts. Triggered or not these are the facts.
