You can’t just up and leave the military any time you’d like. You have to have a significant mental breakdown and end up in a psych ward to get out easily.
It’s honestly been refreshing yankistanis losing their collective minds and threatening to leave fediverse, when faced with a different opinion that isn’t stroking their predisposition and ego.
The fragility of so called stewards of “freedom of speech”, when they’re out of the platforms catering to their faux supremacy.
I don’t think you realize what I’m saying. You have to literally attempt suicide in order to get out of the military without waiting out your contract or removing yourself from society.
Like, they need to be able to visibly see that you have attempted to kill yourself, and even then you have to convince them that it was real.
Would you cut open your arm right now to prove a point?
No, it is you who does not understand. Why would you mutilate yourself? When you wake up in the morning, just continue sleeping and don’t go. Get a new job. Hell, even some jail time is better than killing innocent children in the name of a fascist pedophile.
It seems that many Americans have this unary thinking. Like you have one and only one option, which is to obey the fascist pedophiles.
American soldiers are killing innocent children in the name of a corrupt fascist pedophile, while Americans sit and watch. But of course it’s my fault.
American wisdom right there - it’s anyone’s fault but mine.
I am so sorry for your inconvenience, it must be difficult when the whole world turns against you, because your country is committing atrocious war crimes and raping the world. How dare the world blame Americans for that, when their elected government is doing all the shit. /s
Blaming random individuals just because they happen to live there, with no consideration for what that individual has done, is nationalism. You believe you are superior just because of the nation you’re from. Thats not a good position to hold.
Yeah, a lot of them choose to stay in because they derive a sense of meaning/purpose/job satisfaction from it, and also because civilian life is hard by comparison.
I mean yeah, waking up at 5AM every day sucks, having to stay in shape sucks, being held to strict discipline, conduct, and grooming standards sucks, being told what to do by people who are often dumber than you sucks, having to stand 24-hour posts once a month sucks, having to do annual qualifications and tests sucks, et cetera, but…
Having most of your bills already covered so that you don’t have to think about them is kinda nice, making a steady paycheck with cost-of-living adjustments and continuous growth is kinda nice, having guaranteed 30 days of PTO per year is kinda nice, having medical and dental covered is kinda nice, having a guaranteed place to live (even if you don’t get to choose it or your roommate) is kinda nice, having a chow hall where you can eat three meals a day is kinda nice (even though you technically pay for it when it gets deducted from your paycheck, but you don’t really have to think about that).
Come to think of it, it’s a lot like communism. Actual communism, not the botched attempts we see so often in history.
Of course, now with the whole [gestures at everything] going on, I’m sure the calculus is a bit different. Can’t say what’s going through anybody’s minds right now…

Right… The only option is to go kill innocent children in the name of a pedophile, smh…
Americunts and their values never cease to amaze me.

I have yet to see anything like that…Are these Americans threatening to leave the fediverse in the room with us now?
That’s a massive generalization. Yes, america is full of ignorant assholes. That doesn’t mean every american is an ignorant asshole.

Ever heard of resistance?
I have heard of resistance. I resisted.
I was in the military, I refused to go to my deployment. They confined me to my ship until I attempted suicide.
You’re an asshole, and you don’t know as much as you think
All good then 👍
Go kill some school girls for your pedophile president.
What the fuck kind of reply is this? This guy is saying he refused to deploy and you’re acting like he supports Trump…? What??
You’re the reason the world is how it is

Blaming America is totally reasonable.
Blaming random individuals just because they happen to live there, with no consideration for what that individual has done, is nationalism. You believe you are superior just because of the nation you’re from. Thats not a good position to hold.
Or you could just go AWOL and accept the consequences?
Or get pregnant, if that’s a possibility for you…
This is why they’re really scared of mpreg
There is no true equality in the world until men can get pregnant
Getting pregnant will not get you out of the American military, just out of a deployment
False. When an active duty service member gets pregnant, she is given an option to receive a medical discharge.
Interesting. I knew so many pregnant sailors that I just assumed the option wasn’t given, never applied to me. Now I know

Not anytime no, but I believe this was his third tour of duty. Depends on the timing.
