I can’t believe we’re not talking about them murdering fishermen anymore. We aren’t angry enough.

Taylor☦️☦️ :

Reymond Jeffrey :

soldiers do not want to be ordered to commit war crimes which is what is currently happening with this administration

Who.vill :

Why join if you’re not gonna do what you’re supposed to

donaldjking :

Troops aren't comfortable being terrorists.

nonpaoqvt8u :

respect to these brave men and women for getting out. the US military is being used as a lawless terror squad backed by a trillion dollars of our taxpayer dollars. it's despicable and a slap in the face to all those who have served honorably.

ThePETTIESTThirdClassUSCG :

well when you commit war crimes you have people start dropping out for moral and ethical reasons

Jack :

it's waaaaay higher

Dee :

idk why Pete is rationalizes this as if these new recruit is enlisting for his leadership when reality is these ppl are enlisting bc they can’t get a job in this jobless job market. Hence why more ppl are going into dying trades

Actually...it's you :

50 × 6= 300. Actual numbers. Meanwhile enlistment in 2026 is 185k. Which is a 30yr record 2 years in a row.

Hand of Fate :

COWARDS GONNA COWER

rjchtx :

Truth Be Told :

Service members aren’t interested in being war criminals.

Rachel🦋 :
