a million pieces/segments sneering at hasan piker and the co-chair of the DSA, meanwhile a republican congressional candidate in upstate new york named peter oberacker is the grandson of an actual nazi germany soldier and his former staffer was part of the 'i love hitler' young GOP group chat

all military people are evil, and those that offer military discounts to only some militaries are worst of all

    i mean that's definitely an equally hot take. i'll admit i shared it until i made friends with a radiologist. didn't realize he was serving at the local military hospital until after we'd become best buds, but i'm not too big to admit when i'm wrong.

    There were former military in the black panthers. The military is an institution that exploits the poor and subjects them to moral injury in the name of imperialism- people who participate in it must do the labor to un-fuck their heads after, but those who have truly seen the belly of the beast and what horrors it would offer can be incredibly valuable allies.
