This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

It's exactly what "just executing orders" means. So no, I do not care about people who are covering themselves witch such stupid phrase.
It's no different than killing in the name of some god.

Rages against the machine
It’s worse. At least someone the person killing for god believes it to be good. The soldier is knowingly committing evil for money.
I mean, the military service is mandatory right? Yeah you get paid, but you don't really have the option to not do it...
Plenty of people refuse compulsory service. You just have to be willing to do the time.
People are downvoting, but I respect it. Civil disobedience is always an option, like you say, you just gotta be willing to go to jail for your beliefs.
