I just feel there has to come a point and time where we have to stop applauding military enlistment in the context of today. I suppose I should have confessed to being a former marine corps reservist. I stopped attending my scheduled monthly drills after I came to learn the truth about 9/11 and the fake war on terror as well as how the cia created al queda and bin laden was a former cia agent and how vietnam war was again staged based off of golf of tonkin incident which was another false flag. I saw no point in being part of something based off of a massive massive lie where real people were dying because
I partied with these teenagers as I was 19 when I enlisted, my recruiter screwed me over and lied to me saying I could change my MOS after I swore in at meps and I was never able to so I was stuck with a job I didn't even want in the first place. The people who enlisted and who were in my unit and platoons didnt enlist or care about defending the country. They didnt join out of a sense of patriotism and neither did I. Majority of them were my age 18 or 19 who probably could have stayed at home if they were broke rather than enlist in the military. They were mostly kids with a chip on their shoulder who wanted to prove they could be somebody. Allot of them wanted to shoot a rifle and throw a hand grenade. The overwhelming consensus was teenagers wanting to prove a point or be gunmen on a 50 cal. That was the mindset.... Of course the marine corps doesnt give enlistment bonuses, that is the army and navy i think.
We need to stop applauding and bestowing honors that are superficial. Most of them join as a mercenary for the benefits and career opportunities and signing bonus. Not, because they want to defend the country. This mercenary mindset gives the people who control the military power to commit any sort of genocide or atrocity their wicked agenda conceives.
