Eh. I’ve been to the big show. Don’t worry about the political reasons. Just worry about your guys
That's true
I'm trying
Just would prefer to not HAVE to worry about my guys
When you’re in the military you are a national asset. It should be completely devoid of politics. Violence is your trade. Doesn’t matter who you have to visit that violence upon
>goes to be combat camera
>surprise reclass to 0311
No argument there. And I won't protest if ordered to go, even if I could. But you can't honestly blame me for not wanting my Marines to have to fuck up a country for a bunch of oil magnates who want an Electric Boogaloo for it
>the big oof
>????
>profit
thoes people are down there starving aswell
Step one: input policy that favors oil
Step two: Venezuela turns to shit
Step three: profit
Personally, I'd love to be able to just go down there to hand out food and water
would be liberation as well
I don’t feel like Iraq pt 2 was about oil. I feel like GWB just wanted to put Saddam in his place for his dad.
I think it was both
Plus Cheney got rich off Iraq
That's my motto about these things; God bless Dick Cheney's America
Venezuela wouldn’t be about oil. When you run over your own people with MRAPs because they’re rioting over the conditions you caused for them, it’s time to go
Yeah that's true
I’m not saying America should be the world police, but there’s a reason so many people come to our country
As shitty as we think it is, there’s a kid out there that hasn’t eaten in days, with no clean water, wondering if his parents are gonna get yeeted in the middle of the night.
I suppose I really am Joker, aren't I? The Marine with a peace symbol on his helmet... yeah
Sounds like me
You read any @AKAlexei
A lot
My bedroom walls are lined with books
If you haven’t read Tribe by Sebastian Junger or On Killing by Col. Grossman pick them up
>pic related
Read every book I own, cover to cover
Nice. Most of my shit went missing when my ex said she wanted a divorce lol. I used to have a good collection like that.
I've got more too
That's just one wall
I donated a lot of them though. Ones I'd read at least once or twice and wanted someone else to benefit from
I used to do that when I was younger. If I had a paperback I had read a few times I’d leave them in restaurants and shit for other people to pick up
They'd have called me a communist 60 years ago. But honestly, I'm not. People want weed, abortions, guns, whatever else, fine. Just don't hurt people or fuck with their rights to choose for themselves.
Lol that’s a libertarian viewpoint
I was one, once. Got tired of their pro-corporate bullshit
The problem with Liberatians in the US nowadays is that they refuse to acknowledge that tyranny doesn't just come from governments. If power were shifted to corporations entirely, they'd be no different
People matter way more than profit
