I think we were eleven when he dropped that one.

thats mad af

No one gets in heaven anyway

"honey I did things in the war, I'll never get into heaven for."

oof

wise man

If we talk about the self authoring Jordan Peterson stuff, his ideas about defining what heaven would be, I think I've been to heaven before.

I wonder what he did

Did he put a bullet in a kids skull?

🤔

just picture anything you'd do at war and imagine yourself actually doing it with your own hands

I always thought it would be great to have all the video games I never had access to as a kid, when I was a teenager playing Starcraft somebody showed me about emulation and that was a real game changer for me

Did he torture people?

and then let's talk about access to information, movies, music, the internet changed everything

I imagine he did shit with explosives.

Meh, I'd be able to rationalise war @M4Gunner

I believe he was a UDT man in WW2

For how long, until you get home?

The precursor to the navy seals kind of guy.

Shoot the enemy because enemy = enemy

If youre lucky to live youll have your whole life to hate the monster you became

I wouldn't hate myself for it

I know another older guy who was a navy seal guy in vietnam, he's a guy I work withs grandfather

If you arrent willing to kill, then you'll die in war

He seems a little less ashamed of what he's done, he's not ready to talk about it all the time, but his experiences in the war definitely stayed with him.

Guy I work with said he loves watching action movies with his grandfather, because grandpa will breakdown what is bullshit and what isn't

If you're forced to go into battle, then you have to play the role you are given and live with it

If you don't follow the role, you will die

a man can kill and kill again but he is going to come home and have some thoughts

The example he gave was Road House, when he rips that guys throat out he said "there's no way someone could do that." He said he looked at his grandfather who had a smile and just nodded "oh yeah."

I'd rather not have to kill anybody if I could avoid it.

If a somebitch comes at me trying to kill me, I'll be damned if I just let him get away with it.

Ptsd is the big war trauma @M4Gunner

most war heroes would rather solve problems with words

And I already got ptsd

And if a somebitch comes at my family, I'll also be damned if I can sleep without getting him.

I can't get double ptsd

so do i, do you not think it can be made worse?

Meh

It's almost like they understand that wars are more effectively fought with words

that diplomacy should be the first attempt to resolve an issue
