US military members/veterans

Aint a citizen of the US, but I do have respect for the people that go too war. Only thing that bugs me is that they guys that decide too deploy you are 99% going to live their life unharmed. While you guys risks your lives everyday for idiots in politics. My opinion is that the real enemy is out there in space, not on Earth.

Sorry for grammar, too much IKEA meatballs as a kid.

I was in the navy for 1 year and 8 months before i was medically discharged because 'im nuts (you all knew this already) It was honorable though and it was during a time of war. But since i felt like i was a shit bag who wasted the Navy's time by not being able to for fill my 5 year commitment (submariners added another year) i never signed up with the VA and probably never will.

Humans are the ultimate killing machines, to the animal kingdom we are like the terminator.

An animal can out sprint us but we can keep on going due our sweat glands, that animal needs to sleep while we keep on walking towards them, eventually they collapse.

Sure, So what do you do for a living? You claimed almost everyone in the military is scum. Does that include medics, signals, mechanics, logistics, cooks and engineers? In the British Army only 1/10 are combat arms, the rest make sure everyone else is healthy or gets paid.

Pretty much, Humans are scary as fuck to animals.

We used to wait until they collapsed from exhaustion.

That is one hell of a cool read, thank you.

On the one hand we have the findings of a series of academic studies conducted over five decades, on the other we have the opinion of a GI-Joe wannabe.

And yes, there are exceptions to Milgram, that's why I said "most". 80-90% of the population go along with the torture. People like you in fact.

The Milgram Experiment didn't make people kill the person if they were wrong. Stop trying to move the goal posts because you have been called out yet again about your shitposting.

Also, I was in the navy, so why you assume I was some GI Joe wannabe is beyond me. I was smart enough to put myself in a position that I wouldn't be haphazardly killing people like you assume every service member does. It just shows how feeble your mind really is.

I just want to point out something important from his conclusion:

People tend to obey orders from other people if they recognize their authority as morally right and / or legally based. This response to legitimate authority is learned in a variety of situations, for example in the family, school and workplace.

Also, 65% of participants went to the maximum, when it was just them. If you bothered to continue on (I doubt you even read anything honestly), the second another person was around and disobeyed, obedience dropped to 10%.

You are welcome, Humanity fuck yeah!

he sits on forums like a tuff guy and insults people that have actuall had real jobs and dangerous ones at that.

[Rhaide]

Holy fuck. For the tenth fucking time I never once mentioned illegal orders or war crimes. Are you dense?

CRITISM is all I mentioned from both Americans and non-Americans. Critism which you are apparntly are incapable of taking like a man. Keep hiding behind your politicans lol

Sorry, I don't listen to criticism leveled against me by people who can't even spell it.

I doubt he has a job at all, I respect those pushing trollies around as at least they get up at a set time everyday.

[Jaundiced]

Naw I don't make poor life choices.

I like how people can make comments like this on the forums without getting infracted.

Meanwhile, if someone were to be demeaning to something liberal, their account would get nuked.

I spent ten years in the Marine Corps as a tactical data network specialist. I'd still be serving if I hadn't blown my knees and back out and required multiple surgeries to fix. Now I'm just an old college student that is three classes from graduating.

[Deleted]

Fuck the mods, I am going to try and recruit for the British Army, who could resist such an advert?

[THoyt]

Army here. 68W, Ft Benning and Ft Sam. Deployed in 2001 and 2005.

[Sarrus1]

Thank you for your service I'm actually thinking about joining a branch of the military I just don't know which one is more specialized towards cyber security
