my brother DESPERATELY wants me to join the military (he’s in Navy, got done with boot camp in July & now in school) & I keep telling him that I’m more free than he is & a $40,000 sign on bonus does not sway me to join in any way possible.

My grandpa was in the army in the Korean War when he got back he became an extremely outspoken pacifist and his biggest fear was one of his kids or grandkids go into the military he hated that institution.

the military always came off as scummy with their recruitment strategies but I knew it was beyond screwed when I first saw those ads about the military paying for college. our government is fr just "socialism is bad and no one should do it, unless you sign up to kill ppl for us"

My dad went to Vietnam. He always said never go into the military. He had agent orange and my mom and dad lost twins before I was born. He is still off because of what he had to do and what he saw.

Very true. Every person who was near war efforts in early 2000s tells me that if you get in, you need to get out as quickly as possible.

I don’t get what you mean by the US getting “taken over by capitalist fascism.” Fascism IS capitalistic, and the US has been capitalist since day one. This has been a thing for the US’s entire existence.

just remember, it's more cost effective for the machine to give folded flags and condolences than it is to actually fix the broken cogs. And it's definitely more alluring to see that big sign on bonus, remember, you have to not die to make it to the rest of that payout.
