A huge thanks to our veterans for their sacrifices in serving our nation.
Why is this in the tank? Is it meant to provoke a debate?
Oh.... it's Chryses... and he hasn't figured out yet how to post in other areas of the forum.
Got it.
Thanking veterans is fine, but why do these right wing assholes continue to support foreign intervention that does nothing other than kill civilians in order to funnel money into corporations and the military industrial complex?
The military is used by the right wing as a pseudo-patriotic form of propaganda to progress the interests of corporations by appealing to the ignorance of middle America.
If you actually care about people, then you should be raising your voice against the 6 or 7 wars the US is currently engaged in.
As a scout, I was always involved in Remembrance day ceremonies. We stood in the freezing cold around a cenotaph listening to bagpipes and such. And then they would list the people from our town that died in WW1 or 2. And we would lay wreaths for each of the fallen.
It was solemn and funeral-esque. In the US this isn't respecting the dead. It's all propaganda. Your whole nation is the multinational equivalent of a used car salesman.
It's disgusting that the US continues to use this day as a way to continue to brainwash the young into believing that they are still somehow fighting for freedom. The US military is a fucking business and business is good. The last time I checked the US military was the largest employer in the world.
So the most militarily powerful nation in the history of the planet is continuously attacking third world nations for economic gain, and you have an issue with people (that generally signed up for it) have died while in Iraq alone, somewhere between 200 000 and a million people have been killled?
Get the fuck out of here.
Lest we forget.....

One of you is pitching, probably the one recommending the lube. That means the other is catching.
Spare us the details.
