He died how he lived, defending third world supply chains for the profit of the western oligarchs that consider poories like him subhuman livestock.

implying that your son doesn't already do that in the military without you knowing it

If they're in the Air Force, they likely do.

Same for Marine Corps, except remove the word "likely."

Well, patriotism can be necessary to deal with the constant fear to loose your child.

Nah, that's just fucked up

[–] orphiebaby 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I don't understand this statement. Can you rephrase and/or edit? ^^

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm struggling with the question what exactly is hard to understand. Soldier's parents live in the constant fear that their child might one day just be killed in some conflict a d in order to cope, they use their patriotism

[–] orphiebaby 1 points 2 years ago

Gotcha, I understand now. Thanks

I would rather die for greedy capitalism nation rather than live against the social norm.

[–] Hyggyldy 29 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Too many people have taken your comment seriously. I felt the sarcasm was decently clear but I guess not.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

hmm I didn't realize that it was sarcastic. Good that I saw this comment.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Lol i got downvoted for my sarcasm recently too. Sorry

[–] GatoB 5 points 2 years ago

When no brain (cant understand sarcasm)

"My son has never killed a family in a foreign country because someone told them to."

[–] BilboBargains 18 points 2 years ago

Your son, my son, arson.

[–] Shardikprime 17 points 2 years ago

Wow what a privilege for you to only have the option of not being a man or perish in battle. There is no middle point

[–] dfc09 11 points 2 years ago

Yeah that soldier's boots aren't bloused!

[–] MargotRobbie 8 points 2 years ago

Your son. My son.

Hi son. Bison.

Well, my "son" is a girl both biologically and in terms of gender, so I guess that's correct?
