They call it collateral damage. Or is it casualties?! A few hundred thousand in Iraq. Plus a few tens of thousand in Afghanistan. And maybe some torture here and there.
And I doubt this person is old enough to have fought literal fascists.
All heroes for participating in the glorious defence of ~~capitalism~~ democracy.
Hey we have a military industrial complex products millions of tons of ~~explosives~~ American Freedom™ and we gotta use it
Yeah Americans love making up words to justify their actions to themselves.
“Oh no I didn’t drone strike that wedding and kill that 4 year old girl, that was collateral damage from me killing the super bad guy. I’m a hero!”
Yeah, he should be waterboarded by one of your heroes torturing America's ennemies in Guantanamo Bay, then he would have more respect.
I go touch grass regularly. Actually I went bike touring and camping this very week. And the week before. Want some pictures?
And no. Just like life, I'm gonna stay here, be a thorn, and point out the obvious to the boot lickers. Otherwise I would have killed myself a long time ago.
Every time someone makes a suicide ultimatum, I tell them to do it. Don't try to emotionally manipulate or blackmail us
They're not. It's called a joke. Go touch some grass.
I guess the bigger question is why the generalized rage?
Pivots can and do happen in societies and let's be honest here.. 99% of the rage you have at prior political injustice comes - correctly - at the feet of capitalism.
That same capitalism that brought you the ability to buy and own a bike, a tent, and sleeping bag to use for camping, and all the amenities you are using right now - including the computer/phone and the internet you and I are on at this very instant.
So, let's lose the notion that you yourself are not complicit in the support of those atrocities, as you are benefiting from them just like the rest of us.
You can get some land, move off the grid and use only what you grow/make for yourself.. but you won't like it.
Thank you for being someone of sense. People who spread this shit have no clue of the history of the antifascist movement and what it stands for. The antifascist movement is against everything that the rotten country that is the US stands for; the US military uniform is not, and never will be, a symbol of antifascism.
