The topic was why it took the shitlibs and Hasanabi-watching leftists (lol) a fucking tattoo to denounce Graham Platner, an Iraq veteran who did 4 trips to the war zone and then joined the Blackwater mercenary company to kill even more people.

    I wasn’t excusing anything; I was explaining the nuance behind people willingly joining the military. Writing them all off as simply being racist psychopaths who want to kill people is a knee-jerk, moralistic argument fueled by misplaced passion and devoid of material analysis. It’s a vibes-based way of understanding phenomena and has no place in Marxism.

    That is my sole critique, not that US soldiers are ‘UwU smol beans’ or whatever.
