    Right. Which means those who’ve joined the military in the past should at best be viewed with pity as victims of a con. Treating them as any kind of heroes for signing on with a strike breaking brigade as class traitors only glamorizes the military and perpetuates the con. The way to dispel that notion is to place a stigma upon it by viewing it socially as what it really is.

    Vets aren’t heroes. They’re underpaid scabs who’ve been duped by a lie.
