    Yeah, I agree, if you’re actually taking a life. If there’s a Hitler on the loose, then teach the soldiers to kill without remorse. But why exactly is the US spending the same amount of money as the next 9 countries put together in peacetime? Most soldiers won’t take a life, and the ones who do are doing something pointless and evil. Why are we breaking young people’s minds in a time of peace?

    And y’all actually do have two pretty good reasons for war right now, those being the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the Israeli genocide of Palestine. What’s the point in having all those trained killers if you’re not gonna use them, and if you’re not gonna bother going to war for actual good reasons why bother training all those killers?

    There was a good reason to break young people back when they had to go fight the Nazis. What’s the point now??

      but thanks for turning an attempt at dialogue into whatever this was.

      Because if there is no military, we can’t bully anyone or they’ll just invade us.
