Like. Crazy how in the US military service is the only way to guarantee you get healthcare or education or employment services or political consideration, which are things a lot of industrialized nations have for all their citizens. A real fucking shame that we made Starship Troopers in the 90s but after the Iraq War we make shit like Rebel Moon and turned Star Wars into Marvel and and Star Trek into James Bond. Fascism really won the propaganda war. People really believe Iraq was some desert backwater full of illiterate fanatics because they’re too stupid to know it was a thriving urban center for thousands of years until the United States violently deindustrialized it in the Gulf War.
