I Have my Orders Sentences
(Sentences from muses who give or who have been given orders, whether they've followed them or not. Adjust phrasing where needed)
"Are you refusing a direct order?"
"Never presume to understand what I want."
"Feelings don't matter any more than right or wrong. Orders are what matter."
"It's hard for me not to follow orders."
"I'm a monster. What I do is evil - I have no illusions about it, but it must be done."
"You're not supposed to understand. You're supposed to follow orders."
"Never let your sense of morals prevent you from doing what's right."
"I do as I'm told. I don't question it."
"I'm just following orders."
"You have no rights, only orders to be carried out."
"I don't take orders from you."
"I did as I was told, as always."
"I expect more from you than the polite appearance of cooperation."
"No. No, you don't talk, okay? You just do as you're told."
"Do I make myself clear?"
"I was doing my duty. I was carrying out orders."
"I'm ordering you not to do this!"
"I have my orders, and the licence to execute them as I see fit."
"I need to know that whatever I ask you to do, no matter how distasteful you find it, you’ll do it."
"Do you really believe that? Are you willing to die for that belief?"
"Your reputation won't last if you don't do your job!"
"With all due respect, I think you overestimate your position in the chain of command."
"You disobeyed a direct order. What's going on?"
"I may have to comply with this order, but I don't have to like it."
"Don't make me order you."

Not feminist as in "women should be included in the draft" but feminist as in "being drafted is a violation of bodily autonomy for any gender".
The draft should not exist. Drafting people into the military is a violation of human rights. You should not be able to force someone to risk their life. If you can't find enough people who care about a conflict to keep it going then it simply shouldn't keep going. You can't even force someone to donate a kidney using government power, why the fuck can you force them to donate their whole body and life to a cause they don't agree with or don't care about?

Usamericans should be more anti-war actually. They should be straight up insulting marines and shutting down weapon factories, 60s anti-war protests kind of shit. I'm sorry for pontificating from down here but the US military-industrial complex is currently supplying a genocide, and this is not a new thing, the US has sold weapons to Saudi Arabia to starve millions of Yemenis, the Iraq war, the Afghanistan war, these are within memory. And though some people think it's not the point, it Is also true that there are trillions upon trillions of dollars that could be spent in anything else that go to the black hole of corruption (and call it for what it is, corruption) that is the Pentagon. Any of those resources could be destined to literally any other activity and be better spent.
I'm talking full contempt here. You should outright be HATING the military. Instead of lining up to watch Top Gun you should see it as a glorification of a fucking killing machine that serves imperial interests, enriches megacorporations and supports genocides. For the love of God be more angry about it. Goddamn.
#cosas mias#and yes I don't like my own military either before you ask#I like them just like that defunded and only there for humanitarian purposes if that#we learned a lot in Argentina about what happens when you let the military in power

favorite Bruce Wayne hc of the week: you’re allowed to follow him into the Cave to continue your argument, but he’s going to start undressing and pulling off armor while heading for the showers and if you get an eyeful, that’s on you.
It’s an effective tactic and stops a good 60% of those arguments in their tracks. The remaining 40% are usually intense enough to follow Bruce into the showers and yell at him while he’s casually showering off grime and blood.

the fact that alfred was the one to put up jason's memorial is so important to me
#alfred's military background and his sudden shove into parenthood are things i think about a lot#alfred using the term 'soldier' as something honourable. as something to take pride in.#alfred putting 'a good soldier' on jason's plaque to show his care#the voice in bruce's head referring to his children as his soldiers sounding suspiciously like alfred's#bruce initially refusing to acknowledge jason's existence after his death bc it's the only way he can keep going#& alfred saying 'i will not let you do this. if you will not acknowledge him in your daily life i will make you do so every night'#because alfred doesn't know how to acknowledge the absence of a child either#besides going about your life and praying hoping wishing that they return somehow safe and sound#but he knows how to honour fallen soldiers.#and he will help you in the only way that he can.#sorry i just have so many thoughts about this#(justice league 19)#alfred pennyworth#jason todd#red hood#bruce wayne#batman

So when you hear about Biden slowing down arms shipment
It's not because he cares about Palestinians (cutting UNRWA funds, because of confessions obtained through torture, should tell you otherwise), it's because he doesn't have a large stockpile of weapons to send.

"- I have a lot of problems with Biden. He is clearly the better of the two options, which I recognize is a very low bar. Being better than Trump cannot be the standard, because Donald Trump is the absence of a standard.
"But the truth is, even if Trump looses, that won't be the end of this. The people who cooked up Project 2025 will just move onto Project 2029 instead, because for them, this is so much more than just one election, or indeed, one candidate. Project 2025 is born from impulse as old as America. It's an impulse that says one class of Americans is entitled to lead, and the rest of us are lucky to be allowed to serve- that thinks there should be a limited government when it comes to rules they have to live by, but also a unitary executive to keep the rest of us in line. These are old, old ideas that have been shouted from podiums-... but have now been placed into a new handbook for an only too willing president to use on day one.
"And in a perfect world, I would love if we had an opposing party better able to articulate a strong defense of our country's ideals and that also consistently lived up to them. People are entitled to hope for more from the next four years than someone just not being Trump (and for at least two supreme court justices to die)-...
"And for anyone tempted to think, 'Well, we survived Trump's first term,' first, not everyone did, and it should hopefully be very clear by now a second Trump term really does promise to be far, far worse, because if Trump's first term was defined by chaos, his second could be defined by ruthless efficiency. That should be troubling to absolutely everyone because Project 2025 is a movement who's members joke about wanting a white homeland and insist women have to have more babies to uphold western society.-
"We need to be better than this."
-John Oliver, June 19th of 2024
#Youtube#john oliver#last week tonight#LWT#biden#trump#2024 elections#I also cannot stress this enough- if you are only voting on how America is treating the rest of the world#in light of the Palistinian genocide- know that Trump has pledged even more money and military support to Israel#That Trump has pledged supporting Russia in their invasion of Ukraine#and that Trump also wishes to have closer ties with North Korea#If America's treatment of all other nationalities and parties is your primary issue - then please also consider these#(And not voting at all does not absolve you of your part in this election)#(choosing not to participate is still making a choice- and does not absolve you of your contributions to the outcome)
