Memorial Day Reminder: the most recent war that America was involved in that was actually about freedom was WW2. This isn’t me saying “shit on soldiers,” don’t do that. Just keep in mind that you are constantly being fed propaganda.

I have a lot (and I mean A LOT) of issues with the military, the military lifestyle, and yes, soldiers themselves. But it isn’t productive to shit on them. It’s bad optics for no real gain.

it’s only “bad optics” in the eyes of people who support the military, and I’m not at all interested in appeasing them

It’s bad optics to be shitting on people for their choice of profession. Yes, being a soldier is far, far different than any other choice of profession. But unfortunately, most people don’t see it that way. It’s bad optics because people don’t like to think critically about things
