    If your a civilian you want to be on the US front, if your a soldier you want to be on the Russian front.

        Americans are better at following the laws of war, but are also more efficient at waging war.

            Idk man, the beheadings, crucifictions and other genocide in Ukraine seems quite distasteful too

              I agree, but we haven’t seen the depravity that will be encouraged by the new fascist leaders. I am desperately hoping that getting rid of Medicare will piss enough military people off that they won’t defend him.

                VA benefits are distinct from Medicare (which is distinct from Medicaid). Cutting Medicare (the one for old people) isn’t going to do much to active service members. Nor, I think, will cutting Medicaid (the one for poor people).

                  I agree not directly, and while these people may be severely stunted in empathy, they do have it for those in their immediate circle. If their parents lose their money and health, they may care.

                  Not certain. These ghouls are able to contort anything into anything it seems.

                  Correct. It’s the cuts to the VA that’ll piss them off. The Medicaid cuts will piss them off because it’ll impact their families.
